Cee Lo Green Sings ‘F*** You’ at Obama Fundraiser
ABC News ^ | Mar 16, 2012 7:52pm | Mary Bruce & Devin Dwyer

Singer Cee Lo Green just finished performing his hit song at President Obama’s campaign fundraiser at the Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, Ga., and he started with the uncensored version.

The Grammy-winner and Atlanta native flicked off the audience before asking, “Can I curse in here?” But he didn’t wait for the answer, belting out “f*** you!” Cee Lo ultimately switched to the censored “Forget You” lyrics.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney refused to comment on the song earlier today when pressed by reporters aboard Air Force One. Carney did admit that the president is “a fan” of Cee Lo’s music and might have his songs on his iPod.

At an earlier fundraiser today, the president was interrupted by a “Ludacris” song when someone’s phone started ringing.

“Woah. Got some ‘Luda’ on there?” the president asked of the person’s ring tone, eliciting some hearty laughter from the crowd. “I hope it’s the clean version.”

Barry’s biggest problem is that not enough people have actually told him that.

I would commend ABC for this random act of journalism....but I wouldn't be surprised to soon see a follow-up article extolling the virtues of rap music and the profundity of the f word.

Honestly, some days I feel we're living the movie "Idiocracy".

F.... YOU (read without the ellipses) -- THE VIDEO

Dennis Prager does an excellent commentary of this trashy song:f... you (read without the ellipses) from the music industry

Thank you for your contribution to this thread. I listened to and read your links. Love love love Dennis Prager. Had never heard the song. Didn’t miss anything either.

I think Chris Rock can explain this best.

Much appreciated. Sometimes I try to do music, too; however, I like different songs: The Star Spangled Banner. The Troll Song

Maybe Obama will take his little girls to see Bill Mahrer.
