Watch Michelle Obama Slow Dance With Big Bird

Billy On The Street with First Lady Michelle Obama, Big Bird, And Elena!!! from Funny Or Die

Michelle Obama slow danced with Big Bird in a grocery store because comedian Billy Eichner told her to do it.

The First Lady is trying to get the word out about the Eat Bright campaign that puts Sesame Street characters on fruits and vegetables to encourage young children to make healthier food choices. For some reason this publicity push lead to FLOTUS standing in the produce section of a supermarket next to Big Bird and Billy on the Street fan favorite, Elena, playing a rapid-fire round of a game called “Ariana Grande or a Carrot?” while Eichner screamed at them. (The answer by the way, is carrot.)

It’s an impressively odd video that is incredibly fun to watch, if slightly hard to process. That said, it’s sad to know that their is now video evidence that the First Lady can’t name all the characters from the Facts of Life.
