Michelle Obama not only had her "Carpool Karaoke" with James Corden air on late night Wednesday, but she also had a few stars over to her home Tuesday. Obama and Corden started by jamming to one of her favorite artists, Stevie Wonder’s “Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours.” Obama admitted that she hasn’t gotten to rock out in a car in ages, which makes this momentous occasion (almost) as special for her as it is for all of us. According to Obama, her Secret Service code name is “Renaissance,” and Barack’s is “Renegade.” 
 
 It wasn’t long before the focus shifted to girl-power jams: first, Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies”—which, we should all note, Obama knows by heart, complete with hand-waving choreography. The two may be friends, but it was Beyoncé’s former band mate Kelly Rowland who Obama called up to sing This Is For My Girls, the anthem for her Let Girls Learn initiative that is helping draw attention to the 62 million girls around the world who aren’t in school. “So much could be corrected in the world if girls were educated and had power over their lives,” she says. Neither Bill Clinton nor Melania Trump would be nearly as fun to watch.
– It's been almost eight years since Michelle Obama was able to sit in a passenger seat and sing along to the radio, so it's a good thing James Corden stopped by the White House recently. In the latest edition of Carpool Karaoke, Corden drives Obama repeatedly around the White House driveway as they belt out tunes from Beyonce, Stevie Wonder, and Missy Elliot, who makes a surprise appearance. A few takes: "It's official: we, the people, have the most viral First Lady ever," writes Laura Bradley at Vanity Fair, noting Obama knows Beyonce's "Single Ladies" "by heart, complete with hand-waving choreography." Obama "doesn’t have a bad singing voice" and "can really spit some flow too," writes Brian Moylan at the Guardian. He compares her to Jackie Kennedy and wonders what we'll all do without her come January. Meanwhile, Elliot tells CNN that she thought she was dreaming throughout. "I know for a fact that it was all over my face like, 'Wait, is she rapping this?'" she says of the moment Obama started spitting her rhymes. "But that goes to show you just how cool she is. People hold her in such a high regard—as you should—but she's so down to earth." The video—in which Obama reveals her and her hubby's Secret Service code names—even drew a shout out from the agency. "Thank you @JKCorden and the @latelateshow for bringing @FLOTUS home safe and sound after #CarpoolKaraoke. We were watching," it tweeted. (Carpool Karaoke is becoming its own show.)
