First lady Michelle Obama is all about raising awareness for healthy eating habits, even if that means appearing on an episode of "Billy On The Street" and slow dancing with Sesame Street's Big Bird.
Yes, all that happened and so much more when FLOTUS appeared on Billy Eichner's comedy show to participate in a friendly game of completely pointless trivia inside a Washington D.C. supermarket.
Michelle Obama looking straight at the camera and saying "I am Groot?" Check. Playing hide and seek? Check. Michelle Obama pushing Billy around in a shopping cart while he reads Gwyneth Paltrow's Oscar acceptance speech for Shakespeare in Love? Check.
Another contestant, Elena, also joins Michelle and Big Bird, convinced that Michelle Obama isn't the real Michelle Obama. Did I mention Michelle and Big Bird slow dance to Aerosmith? That also happens. Or that Michelle tells Billy that he may get shot? Look, a lot of random things happen. Just watch the video.
If this doesn't make a lick of sense to you, don't worry: it's not supposed to. Eichner's style of comedy is to be completely outrageous and nonsensical, with the answer to almost every question coming down to Eichner's opinion. It makes for one crappy game show, but for one hilarious video. If you are looking for Eichner's usual running down the street yelling at people routine, skip towards the end of the video to get your fix.
And in case you forgot, eat your fruits and vegetables. Michelle Obama says so.
