Funny Or Die(WASHINGTON) — She’s done push-ups with Ellen Degeneres, jumped rope with Dr. Oz and held a tug-of-war with Jimmy Fallon. Now, Michelle Obama is dancing with Big Bird.
To mark the fifth anniversary of her “Let’s Move!” healthy living initiative for kids, the first lady appears with the yellow-feathered friend from Sesame Street in an online video produced by the comedy site Funny or Die.
The White House said the appearance is meant to promote greater consumption of fruits and vegetables by kids.
