President Obama was caught on camera chewing gum during the D-Day ceremonies in France as Queen Elizabeth II was welcomed, and Twitter feeds worldwide exploded with criticism.

Obama and his chewing-gum. Classy” one French user tweeted sarcastically.

“Not very elegant, the Obama attitude in the middle of the ceremony,”another user said, while yet another added, “Is there anyone who will ask Barack Obama to stop chewing on his gum like a cowboy?”

The words “shameful” and “vulgar” were thrown around as social media networks lit up with outrage at Mr. Obama’s display.

Obama do you want a Coke too while chewing gum while the Marseillaise is being played?” one tweet fumed, in reference to the president’s lack of respect for the French National anthem.
