Michelle Obama, Big Bird team up for ‘Funny or Die’ video
Michelle Obama teams up with Big Bird and comedian Billy Eichner for a humorous trivia contest in a new video meant to promote healthy eating.
{mosads}The 12-minute “Funny or Die” video doesn’t pull punches with questions like “Arianna Grande or eating a carrot?” and “Who is more deserving of the Kennedy Center honor: Martin Short or a box of frozen corn?”
Michelle Obama’s appearance in the “Billy on the Street” episode marks the 5th anniversary of Let’s Move, the first lady’s initiative to fight childhood obesity. In 2013, Obama announced that Sesame Workshop joined the Produce Marketing Association and the Partnership for a Healthier America to include Sesame Street characters on labels to help coax kids into eating healthy.
More than 30,000 grocery stores are participating in the program, according to a post on the White House’s blog for Let’s Move.
The first lady struggled during the “FLOTUS bonus round” of the new video when she “incorrectly” answered that President Obama was hotter than President Lincoln.
