Man with a fan visits Oval

This picture of a gay teacher visiting President Trump and First Lady Melania — and proudly brandishing a lacy black fan — has become an Internet sensation since it was posted on Facebook last week.

Nikos Giannopoulos, 29, was invited to the White House back in April after being named Rhode Island’s teacher of the year.

As the president and First Lady Melania Trump smile, Giannopoulos, wearing a rainbow pin, a nose ring and a snazzy necklace, waves his fan-tastic fashion accessory.

Giannopoulos said staffers had asked him to keep the fan hidden during the photo op.

But the president overruled them, Nikos said, and told him to “go for it.’’
