First Lady Michelle Obama has filmed a Carpool Karaoke skit with James Corden.

When asked what she will miss most about her time at the White House, the First Lady responded that it would be the people she got to know and work with. Maybe she’d like to showcase her rap knowledge by giving us a few bars of Rae Sremmurd’s 2015 cut Up Like Trump? Obama admitted that she hasn’t gotten to rock out in a vehicle in ages, which makes this momentous occasion (almost) as special for her as it is for all of us. Of course she wants to listen to music.

‘Did you know that Stevie Wonder is my favorite?’ Michelle asked.

The First Lady and Corden continue by singing along with Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” (complete with trademark hand moves).

James Corden shares details about his trip to the White House where he helped First Lady Michelle Obama launch her Snapchat before taping a Carpool Karaoke with her.

“We were making honey to put in our lemonade“, Obama said with a smile when the two finished their ride. The song, which was written by Grammy-winner Diane Warren and features artists Kelly Clarkson, Missy Elliott, Janelle Monae, Kelly Rowland, Lea Michele and Zendaya, was produced by AOL’s Makers.

And here’s a lesson: when Missy comes around, it’s blasphemy not to spit some “Get Ur Freak On”.
