If you ever wondered what would happen if you were the President’s daughter and your birthday fell on the country’s national holiday, it might look something like this.
President Obama’s first daughter Malia turned 18 yesterday.
As her birthday fell on Independence Day, she was celebrating the occasion in conjunction with a barbeque held in the White House to celebrate war veterans and their families.
After sharing some touching words about family and American patriotism, as well as praising artists Kendrick Lamar and Janelle Monae for their performances, Obama said it was his job as a father to embarrass his daughter.
The President then had the packed audience and artists on stage join him in singing Happy Birthday to Malia.
