Here’s The President And First Lady Singing Usher ‘Happy Birthday’ Like It’s A Totally Normal Thing

Cutest (and most unsettling) home video ever.

Though he’s known best for early-noughties hits like ‘Confessions’, ‘U Got It Bad’, and other slow jams that bring back stabbing memories of you grinding on people/objects at a Blue Light Disco, Usher is apparently still quite famous. He’s working on his eighth studio album. He’s just released a #BlackLivesMatter protest video with Nas. And, on Wednesday night, he was serenaded by Barack and Michelle Obama for his 37th birthday.

I don’t want any further context to this unless it’s announced this grown adult man is actually the couple’s long-lost son.

Happy Birthday from POTUS & FLOTUSSo 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

Happy birthday, little Usher. Your dad is very proud of you.
