Health food enthusiast Michelle Obama participated in an #AskTheFirstLady question and answer session on Twitter.com yesterday.
One of the first questions (which was surely pre-planned) came from a well-known President Obama impersonator who asked Mrs. Obama how many calories she burns when she turns up. “Turn up” is ghetto slang for get down.
Mrs. Obama responded with a 6-second video of herself dancing with a turnip and asking “turn up for what?” — a take off on the Lil Jon rap song “Turn down For What”.
The video, which was posted on the White House Vine account, went viral.
battling obesity in children is an obsession for Michelle Obama.
