MANILA, Philippines - Korean sensation Psy may finally have the chance to teach US President Barack Obama how to do the famous "Gangnam Style" horse-riding dance when he performs on the "Christmas In Washington" TV special.
US TV channel TNT announced the list of performers for the annual event that will air Dec. 21.
They are legendary singer Diana Ross, Demi Lovato, Megan Hilty, Chris Mann from "The Voice," "American Idol" winner Scotty McCreery and Psy, who will close the TV special with "Gangnam Style."
"Christmas in Washington" will be hosted by Conan O'Brien. TNT said the taping of the Christmas special will be held on Dec. 9 at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C.
The event will benefit the Children's National Medical Center. President Obama, First lady Michelle Obama and other Washington VIPs will be in attendance.
During the US presidential campaign, Obama was interviewed on radio in New Hampshire where he said he already watched the "Gangnam Style" music video and said could do the horse-riding dance.
"I just saw that video for the first time. I think I can do that move," President Obama was quoted by Billboard as saying.

rescind invite to Gangnam Style rapper PSY to perform for Pres. Obama at Christmas party over troop killing song lyrics
We request President Obama rescind his invitation to the Gangnam Style rapper PSY to perform for him at the Christmas in Washington celebration this month because of the rapper’s vicious anti-American song lyrics. In 2004, PSY reportedly performed a song entitled, Dear America, that contained the following lyrics (profanity edited): “Kill those f***ing Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives Kill those f***ing Yankees who ordered them to torture Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law, and fathers Kill them all slowly and painfully “ As commander-in-chief, how can Pres. Obama honor someone who calls for killing our troops and their families?
