While Donald Trump is making you despair for the current presidential race and indeed, for the whole of humanity, please allow current president Barack Obama to provide some light comic relief in these dark political times.
On Friday night The White House hosted BET’s ‘Love and Happiness: A Musical Experience.’
It saw the likes of Naomi Campbell, Usher, Bradley Cooper and other big names join the Obamas to celebrate all things music and party the house down afterwards.
Barack was obviously feeling the musical theme of the night, letting loose on the dancefloor to Dake’s hit track Hotline Bling and, well, we’re just going to let his moves do the rest of the talking:
If only he could stay in the White House forever, right?
Music manager Angie Martinez was also in attendance at the bash and provided a play by play of Obama tearing up the dancefloor on Instagram.
“My face is sweaty. my hair is a mess. And my feet are killing me…but i am standing outside of the white house after witnessing @djdnicerip the place down! im talkin… mobb deep, dmx, young MA, tribe, juvi…and in the middle of it all our president ran out to jump in a circle and dance to@champagnepapi w/ his hands in the air,” she wrote.
“All while a gigantic painting of George Washington hovered over the dance floor. Dave Chappelle, The @betfam, naomi, DeLa , jesse, OG, jaha, roots crew, bev, ashaunna, tj, Fred, naturi all dancing to @asapferg! Ive seen a lot in my life but tonight confirmed what i have always suspected, that anything is possible!! #GodBlessAmerica #GodBlessHipHop”
Not that dancing abilities has any relevant correlation with competency to lead the free world, but we’re just going to leave this here regardless:
It doesn’t quite have the same effect, does it?
