Even as Michelle Obama’s “Mom Dancing” video with Jimmy Fallon was going viral this weekend, Sasha Obama’s dance recital was not to be missed: President Obama took an hour out of his schedule last night to attend his youngest daughter's dance recital at an arts center in suburban Maryland.
The White House said 11-year-old Sasha performed during a recital Saturday evening at the Music Center at Strathmore, a nonprofit arts center in North Bethesda, Md.
Mr. Obama, who told People magazine in Decemeber that he has a penchant for dancing Gangam Style to embarrass his daughters, returned to the White House about an hour after arriving at the arts center.
