Amazon MGM Studios' documentary 'Melania,' directed by Brett Ratner, debuted on January 30, 2026, chronicling the first lady's preparations in the 20 days leading to Donald Trump's second inauguration. Despite negative critical reception branding it as a boring infomercial, the film is projected to earn $8 million in its opening weekend, the best for a documentary in a decade. The premiere at the Kennedy Center on January 29 drew political figures and protests amid national unrest.
First lady Melania Trump issued a rare public statement on Thursday denying any close ties to the late Jeffrey Epstein. She rejected claims of friendship or involvement in his crimes and called on Congress to hold hearings for his victims. The address came amid recent releases of Epstein-related documents.
