The three-times-married 79-year-old admitted that he risked being accused of sexism with the comments about hard-right leader Meloni, who was standing behind him on the podium.
"I'm not allowed to say it because usually it's the end of your political career if you say it -- she's a beautiful young woman," Trump said in the middle of a speech about his peace efforts for the Middle East.
"If you use the word 'beautiful' in the United States about a woman, that's the end of your political career, but I'll take my chances."
Turning round to address the 48-year-old, Trump said: "You don't mind being called beautiful, right? Because you are."
Meloni's immediate reaction could not be seen, as Trump's back was between her and the cameras.
Trump went on to call Meloni, an ideological ally when it comes to immigration and cultural issues, "incredible".
"And they really respect her in Italy. She's a very successful politician," he added.
Meloni was the only woman among around 30 leaders gathered on the stage behind Trump for the summit, where they signed a declaration pledging to help push through peace for Gaza.
Trump has previously been criticised for sexist remarks.

I always thought it was the absurdity of it that made it funny. But the vulgarity is a common substitute for people who don’t get the absurdity.
I can make people laugh all day log with skits about farts and qwuiffs. It takes a real genius to write a noble piece.
What does Elon think?
Well, that may be true that it takes a real genius to write a noble piece. Can’t argue that.
But we are largely out of real geniuses today in the comedic world because they accurately foresee someone attacking them because they were offended by some component of humor.
I did watch someone recently who was very funny and didn’t have to resort to profanity or scatological humor, so they still do exist.
I would say that has to be one of her most regrettable moments in office, doubling as one of Biden’s handlers and basically keeping up the illusion Biden was sharp and not the Dementia Joe we know him to be.
You need to watch Tim Hawkins. We have seen him here twice in the past couple of years. He has a lot of his schtick out there on youtoob.
We are lucky to have Trump and Italy is lucky to have her.
The best on offer was selected. Democracy delivered!
Thank you for the suggestion...:)
I just watched his short songs “Colonoscopy” and “Karen”...
Made me smile-I will be watching more!
And she’s a tigress. Doesn’t take prisoners.
You may have heard “Cletus Take the Reel.” Man Bun is funny, too.
“And she’s a tigress. Doesn’t take prisoners.”

well, she is rather pretty
and if he said she was ugly, it would have caused a diplomatic kerfuffle
(and prove that he needed better glasses)
I’d call her “cute, in a milfy sort of way” - but Trump has a gift for overstatement that always is spot on.
We use to have a saying crazy hot.
If you want to watch his entire act from a couple years ago, YouTube Tim Hawkins - Just About Enough.
I will check them all out...a good laugh is priceless these days!
She really is.
You cannot be serious.
Trump’s on a roll with Italians. Meloni is bellissimo... and Columbus, the Italian, gets his holiday back.
Fantastico!
Weird, isn't it?
The West is dying an awful death of its own doing.
