In a year-end special of Greg Gutfeld’s What Did I Miss? in 2025, the Fox News host unleashed an unexpected star: his one-year-old daughter, Mira. What started as a quirky trivia show about real vs. fake headlines became a viral phenomenon when Mira waddled onto the set, turning the stage into her personal playground. The toddler’s antics, from “stealing” Greg’s microphone to sparking a dance-off, had viewers in stitches and cemented her as the internet’s newest darling.

The episode began typically, with Greg and panelists Kat Timpf and Tyrus quizzing contestants on bizarre news stories. But the mood shifted when Mira, dressed in a tiny Gutfeld! t-shirt, escaped her minder’s grasp and charged the stage. “We’ve got a new producer!” Greg exclaimed as Mira grabbed his tie and babbled what fans dubbed her “first roast.” The audience lost it when she “judged” a contestant’s answer by tossing a sippy cup, prompting Tyrus to joke, “She’s tougher than Simon Cowell!”

The hilarity peaked during a spontaneous “toddler challenge,” where Kat asked Mira to pick the “real” headline from two cards. Mira’s response? Stacking the cards into a tower and giggling, which Greg called “better than our writers’ room.” Elena Moussa, Greg’s wife, made a surprise appearance to help Mira “award” a plush toy to the winner, earning cheers. The unscripted joy was infectious, with clips amassing millions of views on X under #MiraRules.

Greg later shared that Mira’s cameo was a last-minute idea. “She’s been watching me rehearse at home, so we thought, let’s give her a shot!” he said. The episode highlighted his softer side, a contrast to his biting commentary. Elena’s presence added warmth, with her joking about Greg’s attempts to teach Mira “satire” via bedtime stories. A near-disaster occurred when Mira knocked over a prop microphone, but Greg’s quick save—turning it into a comedy bit—kept the show rolling.

The viral moment sparked debates about kids in the spotlight. Some X users called it a publicity stunt, but most fans adored the authenticity, with one writing, “Mira’s got Greg’s charm!” Memes flooded social media, including a hilarious edit of Mira as a game show host with Greg as her assistant. The episode’s success has fans begging for more family appearances, proving that Mira’s star power might just outshine her dad’s.
