Watch President Obama Dance to Drake's "Hotline Bling" With Usher
Last night on the South Lawn of the White House, President Barack Obama hosted BET's "Love and Happiness: A Musical Experience," an event that included performances from Usher, The Roots, De La Soul, and plenty of others.

Angie Martinez of Roc Nation was there as well, and described the scene in an Instagram post: "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.
