About
Orange Biden or Joe Biden Orange Spray Tan refers to a viral video and picture of United States President Joe Biden in which his skin appears to have an orangeish hue, purportedly from a spray tan or bronzer. The image went viral on the internet in early July 2024 after Biden delivered a five-minute speech in response to the Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity. Speculations about Biden's orange-toned appearance sparked memes and jokes on Facebook, Twitter / X and Reddit as it was used as an exploitable meme and photoshopped.

While Biden was giving his address, some netizens started to mock his skin, which appeared orange from a purported spray tan.

The post (seen below, left) amassed roughly 3,700 likes and 540 reposts in a day.
