Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. welcomed President Donald Trump warmly at the MAHA Inaugural Ball in Washington, D.C., on Monday following his inauguration.

At the Waldorf Astoria, a packed room of MAHA supporters were stunned when singer Jewel appeared on stage to perform a heartfelt acoustic version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" following President Trump's inauguration.

The Grammy Award-winner stunned the crowd in a timeless black-and-white gown as she sang a tune, with Kennedy wrapping his arm around wife Cheryl Hines.

Jessica Kraus, the founder of House Inhabit, revealed to Planet Chronicle Digital that she was taken aback by the unexpected nature of Jewel's performance.

"It was a big fun surprise because no one expected it," Kraus stated.

As Jewel sang the hit ballad, Hines became emotional and wiped away a tear from her eye.

The MAHA Inaugural Ball was attended by Russell Brand, Rob Schneider, and the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" actress, among others, to celebrate the 47th president's inauguration.

The MAHA movement was led by Kennedy and Del Bigtree, an Emmy Award-winning producer.

Kennedy was nominated by Trump to head the Department of Health and Human Services, but his confirmation hearing has not been scheduled yet.

Kennedy initially declared his intention to run for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination in April 2023. However, six months later, he changed his mind and decided to run as an independent candidate.

By August, RFK Jr. had dropped out of the presidential race and was supporting Trump.
