First Lady Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff went viral on Tuesday for their kiss on the lips at President Biden's State of the Union address.

First lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Douglas Emhoff unintentionally created the first viral moment of President Biden's second State of the Union address.

Both she and the second gentleman were seen greeting each other with a kiss on the lips.

Many called the kiss "weird" while others joked that "COVID is over."

"Is this... normal?" Daily Wire senior editor Cabot Phillips wondered. 

"Cheek is fine. Or a hug. This is odd considering they both knew the cameras were on them," Fox News contributor Joe Concha tweeted.

Conservative commentator Kelsey Bolar joked, "plot twist."
