However, what Schwarzenegger will say or do in his pretaped recording is still a secret. But with his recent flurry of monologues that call for better action, with one where he spoke to CNN Politics about the horrors of war by citing his own struggles in Austria, Schwarzenegger might just captivate the esteemed audience and set them for a memorable night ahead.
The event will be headlined by the Daily Show correspondent Roy Wood Jr., as his former colleague Trevor Noah hosted the 2022 event. President Joe Biden will be joined by First Lady Jill Biden, and many more celebrities are likely to attend.
The dinner event is all set and ready for a massive success
While not all guests have been revealed, the event is a complete sell-out with media houses buying up seats. John Legend, Chrissy Teigen, Rosario Dawson, and Jerry O’Connell are all likely to attend. But the icing on the cake has been the news about the presence of Arnold Schwarzenegger at the event. The news that almost all media houses have picked up on. A staunch member of the Republican Party, Schwarzenegger has shown his support for Joe Biden, a Democrat leader, in the past.
One of the most anticipated segments of the night is the roast of the President. And entertainers like Roy Wood Jr. might pull every punch he has to entertain everyone. However, getting Arnold Schwarzenegger to open the event might elevate the night for everyone. Thus, two years after it was closed for the pandemic, the WHCD might just be a big hit this year.
