The blonde sitting next to Elon Musk at president Trump’s speech to congress has been identified as a glamorous Botox salon beautician from Pennsylvania.
Aesthetician Heather Valentino was the talk of Washington DC after sitting next to the billionaire SpaceX founder and chatting to him during the joint session on Tuesday.
She works at Beautox Aesthetics in the Pittsburgh area, according to her co-worker Diana, who claimed Valentino did not know Musk before they met in DC during the speech.
‘She was just there watching [the speech],’ the spa’s office manager Diana told DailyMail.com on Wednesday.
‘It’s funny, because it looked like they were together, but they weren’t…. they do not know each other… I’m sure they met there.’
Diana added that Valentino’s co-workers knew she would be watching Trump’s speech at the Capitol, but were still surprised to see her on TV next to Musk.
It’s unclear why Valentino, who was first named by Newsweek, had the coveted seat at the historic event.

DailyMail.com has reached out to her.
Musk had one of the prime seats for the speech alongside newly confirmed FBI Director Kash Patel, as well as Trump’s sons Eric and Don Jr., and Eric’s wife Lara.
A clip showing Musk offering Valentino a water bottle went viral following Trump’s congressional address, with many wondering who the mystery woman was – and joking she could be the mother of Musk’s next child.
‘Whoever that blonde was behind Elon, that’s about to be baby momma #5,’ said hedge fund founder Spencer Hakimian.
‘Who is the blonde sitting next to Elon with that Elon Rocket Baby sparkle in her eyes?’ asked another X user.
Last month, Musk’s alleged fourth ‘baby mama,’ right-wing influencer Ashley St Clair sued him for sole custody of the child she says they share.
Days later, his third baby mama, Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis, confirmed the birth of their fourth child together.
The baby would be Musk’s alleged 14th offspring, given his current legal scuffle with St Clair.
Musk ditched his usual T-shirt and jeans for a suit during Trump’s address to Congress night – but was berated by security for using a cell phone.
Musk was seen sitting on the steps outside the Chamber of the House of Representatives after the incident, but returned in time to hear Trump praise his work with the Department of Government Efficiency.
Trump addressed Congress for a joint session for the first time since returning to the White House, and has touted his current administration as ‘the most successful in the history of our nation.’
The president celebrated the efforts of Musk’s DOGE to reduce wasteful spending within government departments.

‘Thank you Elon, you’re working really hard,’ Trump said, turning to the crowd as he added: ‘He didn’t need this.’
As his work was praised and Republicans cheered, Musk smiled and saluted to the packed room.
Musk joined the presidential motorcade to the Capitol from the White House earlier on Tuesday.
