NBC has announced that the First Lady of The United States, Michelle Obama, will guest star on the season finale of Parks & Recreation. “Mrs. Obama’s scene in the episode titled ‘Moving Up’ was filmed in late February in Miami, where she celebrated investments in healthier out-of-school programs as part of her ‘Let’s Move’ initiative dedicated to solving the challenge of childhood obesity,” the network said in statement. Considering the first family has a documented love of the NBC comedy, it's no surprise that the FLOTUS would agree to appear on the series.
Mrs. Obama joins an exclusive cool club of political heavyweights that have guest-starred on the show before. To date: Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Arizona Sen. John McCain, and Vice-President Joe Biden.
The hour-long season finale airs April 24.
