Attendees at a dance party in Boston cheered when pictures of Luigi Mangione, the man accused in the killing of UnitedHealthcare's CEO, appeared on screen, according to videos posted on social media.
Bop to the Top Tours' Jingle Bop was being held at Big Night Live, a venue in Boston, on Friday night.
During the show, a DJ played Miley Cyrus' "He Could Be The One" as several pictures of Mangione appeared on a big screen.
The crowd can be heard cheering as photos of Mangione taken from his social media accounts appear on screen.
The cheers appear to get louder as Mangione's booking photos are shown on screen, according to a clip shared by a user on TikTok that racked up more than 1.2 million likes.
"Give the people what they want," the user wrote alongside the video.
Bop to the Top Tour shared the user's clip on its Instagram page with the caption: "Too unserious."
Newsweek has contacted Bop to the Top Tour for comment via a contact form on its website.
Mangione, 26, has become an online sex symbol since he was arrested at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on December 9. A fundraiser has since raised more than $100,000 to go toward his legal fees and his lawyer said he has received offers from people wanting to pay Mangione's legal bills.
He remains incarcerated without bail at the State Correctional Institution Huntingdon in Pennsylvania, where he has been charged with gun and forgery offenses.
