After trading jokes with Corden about President Obama’s whereabouts-“he better be” in the White House, she lobbed, “that’s where he said he was”-she got down to business, singing Stevie Wonder’s classic, “Signed, Sealed, Delivered”.
“I’ve been in a vehicle – maybe it was months ago – with my daughter, learning to drive”.
US first lady Michelle Obama takes questions from children for Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day in the East Room of the White House April 20, 2016 in Washington, DC.
“I love Stevie Wonder!”.
You and me can be as cool as want but the First Lady is way ahead of us in this cool league.
Obama joined host James Corden on his popular Carpool Karaoke segment, and they cruised around the White House grounds. Obama went in strong on that song as well. Then it was on to the teaser clip that was put out earlier this week where the First Lady and Corden grooved to Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies.”
Just in time for her rap verse, Missy Elliot magically appears in the back seat and totally rocks it as only Missy can do.
“We just dropped the mic”.
And here’s a lesson: when Missy comes around, it’s blasphemy not to spit some “Get Ur Freak On”.
And then Mrs. Obama made a decision to get crunk with Missy to her classic jam “Get Ur Freak On”, and all life was given.

Obama also discussed getting Snapchat so that she could chronicle her trip to Liberia, Morocco and Spain to highlight her “Let Girls Learn” initiative.
