Does a video of Argentina's President Javier Milei authentically capture him singing on stage? Yes, that's true: Milei performed at the Movistar Arena in Buenos Aires on October 6, 2025. Many media outlets covered the event.

The claim appeared in a post (archived here) published on X on October 8, 2025. It opened:
