VIDEO: PRESIDENT OBAMA & THE FIRST LADY SHARE A DANCE

Wednesday, January 21, 2009

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama danced their way through 10 official inaugural balls Tuesday night, after a historic day in American history.

The Obamas were serenaded by Beyoncé during their first dance at the Neighborhood Ball, where she sang Etta James’ “At Last,” from her role in the movie “Cadillac Records.”

Before the dance, Obama addressed the crowd, which erupted in applause when he entered the room.

“First of all, how good-looking is my wife?” Obama beemed.

Barack and Michelle I’m so proud. This is truly a beautiful couple who clearly love each other and stand by each other in every way. Bey that’s my girl as everyone knows and she did a good job and she was so proud and excited to be there. This was a great celebration with a great group of performers all around. Good Job.

It was beautiful, too bad I missed it on TV, I bet it would’ve been more touching.

Slightly off topic, but could Mariah atlease cover up even a little more during this event? Her performance actually made me cry too, =(.

Michelle and Obama looked very nice (and happy). Is it just me or is there something wrong with Beyonce singing and Vanessa Williams in the audience? Are you kidding (that hack can’t touch V.L.W - IMHO). I’m just saying……………………

This was truly a beautiful moment. One that will definitely be etched in the minds of Americans and those abroad for a long time. The love that the Obama’s have for each other and is extremely touching. Tears definitely came to my eyes tonight. The looks they gave one another, and the emotion in their faces was so so so so beautiful. It was definitely a great moment that will be in history.

And what a great choice for At Last to be the song choice. Beyonce beautifully SANG that song, and truly gave a wonderful backdrop for the Obama’s to dance to. For anyone who doubts that she can sing extremely well (a top notch vocalist at that) or that she can’t bring class to events (laughs at the petitions) then you are truly wrong. She did an INCREDIBLE rendition of At Last, and it was great to see that the Obama’s loved it. She felt that! And for a good cause. Beyonce is definitely a great artist.

It is great to At Last finally see a black man in the highest office of the land and sharing it with his beautiful wife and family. What a wonderful day for the inauguration, and a great night to cap it all off!!! Amazing.

Watching this really brought tears to my eyes. It is wonderful to have the first black president and it is also wonderful to see how so in love President Obama and Mrs. Obama are, right now they are the epitome of black love and Beyonce sang beautifully but on a side note is it just me or Mariah Carey can’t sing that well anymore her voice has really gone down Hero is such a powerful song for the occasion and her performance didn’t make me feel anything, she didn’t do her own song justice but anywho HAPPY OBAMA DAY!!!everybody

Now you can’t tell me that’s not REAL love. That man loves his wife and I adore their bond for each other. Lord willing…this will help some of these folks really realize what love and marriage really means.

GO OBAMA AND MICHELLE!!!!

AND

GO AMERICA!!!!

Oh yes I must make a note about Beyonce. I usually don’t get involved with all this back and forth drama…but the folks out here that have something negative to say need to leave her alone. Beyonce’s performance was DEFINITELY meant for them two. Nothing was fake about that. You could even see it in Michelle’s expression when they finished dancing and (I think) it really touched Beyonce.

What do you guys expect? This is not a time for hating but a time for rejoicing.

That was awesome! ( I sound like a white dude) But seriously, what a time 2 be an African-American!!! For all the times when I was younger and faced racism @ an early age in Searcy, AR to Laredo, TX by both whites and hispanics. And now being part of one of the most historic times of my life( all 26 years)! And as a black man I must be special and prosper by way of my Black President. Yes sir!

I cried without even hearing the song — that’s right. I have no speakers. Just WATCHED the performance.

As a full grown man, that shouldn’t be biologically possible! (j/k) But seriously, Bey and the Obamas… magical.

YAAAY For Obama and Michelle…they looked sooo beautiful last night, I watched the inaugartion all day yesterday it was sooo many things going on for him last night it was just too thrilling to even stop watching. Seeing my FAVORITE SINGER sing a song for our first BLK president was truly touching, and I am soo proud of my girl and happy that she got to be apart of something so PHENEMONAL..GO BEE.
She looked amazing and song even better. A gifted inspiration to our younger sisters.
Now we have a BLK PRESIDENT FOR OUR BROTHERS AND OUR YOUNG BROTHERS TO LOOK UP TO. Words cannot express the happiness I am feeling for my people right now…

I LOVE MY BLK PEOPLE THIS IS TRULY OUR YEAR TO SHINE.

The greatest moment for me is when they walked outside during the parade and waved to everyone…thats was so touching…I know MLK is soo proud of us….this was all for you MLK….thank you for opening the door for our ppl to reach tremendous oppurtunities….

MARCUS/33 — YOU ARE DISGUSTING. THAT’S WHY BLACKS HATE GAYS SO MUCH. YOU FOCUS ON MARIAH AND BEYONCE AND THE DIVA’S AND FORGOT THAT THIS MOMENT WAS BIGGER THAN THEM.

THIS WAS OBAMA’S MOMENT, MARIAH GAVE A HEARTFELT EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCE OF HERO TO OUR HERO, AND BEYONCE AND MARY GAVE THEIR EMOTIONAL BEST.

THIS MOMENT WAS NOT A DIVA MOMENT. IT WAS AN OBAMA MOMENT. THIS WOMEN WERE NOT ON AMERICAN IDOL THEY WERE GIVING THERE HEART.

This show brought me to tears, to see Beautiful women of color, Michelle, Vanessa Willaims, Beyonce, Mariah, Mary, all different shades, just doing beautiful thangs. Mariah gave her HERO his HERO welcoming with her emotional performance. Beyonce looked AUTHENTIC for once, and natural, and she is actually very beautiful. Vanessa Williams is the personification of classy. and Mary J. loved her.

Obama was given a HERO’s welcome.

The Obamas were so elegant. You can just feel the love they have for each other.

I see the stans are giving praise to that “just ok” rendition of “at last”. I think they should have chosen a more powerful singer (why didn’t ya call Patti!).

It was a great night for all .
