Melania Trump on Thursday, January 29, premiered her new movie that promises a behind the scenes glimpse at her husband's return to power – a documentary funded by an extraordinary multi-million-dollar deal with Amazon.
Titled simply Melania, the documentary is getting a red carpet screening at the newly renamed Trump-Kennedy center in Washington, attended by both the US First Lady and President Donald Trump himself.
"I want to show the audience my life, what it takes to be a first lady again and [the] transition from private citizen back to the White House," Melania Trump told reporters, adding that audiences will see how she conducts her businesses and philanthropy, cares for her family and sets up her White House team. "It's beautiful, it's emotional, it's fashionable, it's cinematic and I'm very proud of it," she said.
A teaser for the documentary released in December showed the former model looking to the camera just before her husband's second swearing-in at the US Capitol and saying: "Here we go again."
