ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — They called it “random dancing” but First Lady Michelle Obama broke out some moves that resembled subdued variations of “the Monkey” or “the Jerk” Friday during an appearance at a northern Virginia high school.
A screaming, raucous auditorium filled with elementary and middle school students greeted Obama and the cast of the Nickelodeon TV show “iCarly” at Hayfield Secondary School in Fairfax County.
The appearance promoted an upcoming episode featuring Obama in which she thanks military families for their sacrifices. On the show, star Miranda Cosgrove plays the daughter of an Air Force colonel deployed overseas.
A staple of the show is a segment of random dancing, which Obama performed both in the episode that premieres Monday and on stage Friday.
Obama’s dance moves drew plaudits from the “iCarly” cast.
“I think she showed everybody up in the dance department,” said Jennette McCurdy, who plays Samantha on the show.
The onstage dance session Friday lasted only a minute or so, far less than the extended dance session Obama did last year when visiting Deal Middle School in the District, when she joined students doing “the Dougie” and “The Running Man” in a clip that has been viewed more than 4 million times on YouTube.
Her acting skills also drew praise. The cast was impressed with Obama’s ability to deliver her lines in the compressed time they had to shoot the scenes.

No, please...I just ate.
Well we’re already at the point where we dont flinch when a First Lady of America says that she is proud of America for THE FIRST TIME because her husband was elected. We thought that was ok, so why not this ?
I think I need new glasses. On my first read of the thread title, I could swear it said “First Lady’s Butt Moves During High School Appearance”.
The Obamas are both great at playing a fictitious character.
kinda like a full body dry heave... 
As Neal Boortz calls her, “The First Linebacker.”
