Yes, this real. It’s not a joke! President Obama visited Best Buy today so that he could purchase Just Dance 3 as a holiday gift for his two daughters.

Last minute holiday shoppers are scrambling to find the perfect gifts and President Obama is no exception. Obama headed out to his local Best Buy today and picked up a copy of Ubisoft’s Just Dance 3 for his daughters, Malia and Sasha. Obama held up the game to onlookers and said:

“In case you all are wondering, Just Dance for the Wii. The girls beat me every time on these various dance games. And you’ll never get a picture of me [playing] because I get graded F every time.”
