Usher was recently invited to The White House to do a special performance for President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. The performance happened to land right around his own birthday, so the tables were turned for a moment. While having a short conversation with Usher, the Obamas surprised him by singing Happy Birthday and bringing out a cupcake with a candle. The sweet gesture was followed by a promise from President Obama: “Hey, and that’s a good cupcake too!”
Usher shared footage of the special moment on his Facebook page along with this message:
So this really happened the other night…… The President and First Lady sang me Happy Birthday at The White House & I got to perform for them. I couldn’t be more grateful for this moment and all of the birthday wishes from everyone. THANK YOU!!!!! #Blessed #OlderWiser
