Fans on social media are buzzing over a clip showing Team USA golden goal hero Jack Hughes and his brother Quinn getting stopped by bouncers at Justin Bieber’s star-studded 2026 FIFA World Cup after-party on July 20th.
Justin Bieber, along with his fashion label SKYLRK, hosted the exclusive bash at the Twenty Two in New York. The Canadian music icon hosted the party shortly after the conclusion of the biggest sporting event, where Spain was crowned world champions after defeating Argentina 1-0 in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.
The late-night party pulled in a stacked guest list of big-name athletes and celebrities. In the viral clip, Jack Hughes and his brother Quinn didn’t get the instant VIP treatment at the door. They were seen waiting it out with security before eventually making their way inside.
Here’s how hockey fans on X (formerly called Twitter) reacted. One tweeted:
“Hockey players are so irrelevant nationally it’s so funny. Absolute mega stars in our world, D-list celebs in the real one.”
Another chimed in:
“Hughes brothers have no cred. Already forgotten since the Gold Medal Game. Thats Hockey in the USA! Now if Mathew Tkachuk was there. They would have been inside before being spotted.”
Here are some of the other top reactions on X:
“Damn that bouncer needs to figure it out,” a third fan wrote.
“I like how hockey players are completely unafraid of gigantic doormen. Most people would flinch a little,” one X user opined.
“This is laughable how much jockey players get no respect. This same doorman holds the door and greets Brunson with a “how are you?” I get Brunson, King of New York. But Jack also won the USA a gold medal. added another.
Jack Hughes and his brother Quinn spotted hanging with Morgan Wallen at Michigan Stadium show
In a notable hockey-music crossover moment, Jack Hughes and his brother Quinn were seen enjoying Morgan Wallen’s massive Still The Problem Tour stop at Michigan Stadium recently.
Wallen, known for bringing out local athletes for his grand entrance, walked out with the Hughes brothers to open the second of his two sold-out nights at the Big House. Jack carried a Team USA jersey while the duo shared an Olympic gold medal from the 2026 Winter Games onstage with the singer.
Notably, Jack Hughes’ golden goal at the 2026 Milan Olympics ended a 46-year Olympic gold medal drought for Team USA’s men’s hockey.
