“I’m a big fan, he’s a great guy. So lay off him, he’s doing great,” the British songsmith said on Tuesday, ABC News reported.
This year’s recipient of the Library of Congress’s Gershwin Prize for Popular song, McCartney is set to perform at the White House Wednesday evening and be feted by fellow musicians Stevie Wonder, Faith Hill, the Jonas Brothers, Elvis Costello and Herbie Hancock, among others.
Speaking at a press conference in Washington ahead of the event, McCartney, 67, said he planned to “try to have fun” but predicted a case of the nerves when performing “like, three feet away” from Obama.

Don’t get mad. he obviously means lay off as in fire the SOB next election.
Correction, BILLIONAIRE!
That's better than the waves of nausea I'd feel.
Amen brother!!!!!!!!!! couldn’t agree more!!!!!
Elvis has been in the news recently too:
Let’s hear what Ted Nugent has to say about how the queen is doing her job.
Ooops...sorry...*you* don't have to wait 10 minutes for *any* kind of health care,do you? I'll bet your fellow Brits are very envious of you.
Just go bleep yourself!
We should boot this fool out of our country.
Good one!
Line of the day!
The Gulf is DYING....THOUSANDS of PEOPLE re LOSING their JOBS and LIVLIHOOD that they have had for GENERATIONS and will NOT RETURN maybe for GENERATIONS, and Obama is being SERENADED and PARTYING with a BEATTLE???? OMG!!!
I’m with you,I never liked those A$$ H—— or that crap they called music. Like the man said here later, their music wasn’t real American romantic rock & roll. I liked the American look at the time and the American music. I think there are more people who feel like us than you could imagine. The only reason these jerks got popular was the mainstream media and the drug lefties.
He was never the walrus.
Steel yourself, Paul. Not like he is exactly a diety, is it? Is it, Paul? Get up off your knees, you moron.
Absolutely right up there with Sean Penn in the idiocy hierarchy.
I have never understood the appeal of the beatles. Some songs okay, until I realized who was playing. I’ve heard many bands who were just as good that never became famous, and were populated by decent people. Anyone who believes they are special is, in fact, “special” themselves.
I am surprised they can drag Obama off Air Force One long enough to listen to McCartneys squallings.
Paul SchmuckCartney is a washed up old fool. Ask his ex wife, the woman he was warned not to marry.
He has spent more money than anyone, in the history of money. I suppose there's something of note to that.
Plus, he's reinvigorated the teleprompter business. There has to be a couple of jobs in that.
UK actors and musicians used to come here to live because the taxes in Britain were absolutely punitive.
I wonder where they will move to live now.
