Warms your heart, doesn't it? Priorities, you know...

Usher spent his birthday last week being serenaded by Barack and Michelle Obama.
Usher, who was at the White House to participate in In Performance at the White House, an “all-star music tribute celebrating the cultural resonance of art and literature in unique American musical form” that will air on PBS in 2016, turned 37 on Oct. 14, and received a cupcake and birthday singalong led by the President of the United States.
“So this really happened the other night,” Usher wrote on Facebook. “The President and First Lady sang me Happy Birthday at The White House & I got to perform for them. I couldn’t be more grateful for this moment and all of the birthday wishes from everyone. THANK YOU!!!!! #Blessed #OlderWiser.”
Usher did not comment on dessert he was given in addition to the song, but Barack Obama vouched for its quality: “That’s a good cupcake, too,” the president said.
Warms your heart, doesn't it? Priorities, you know...
The White House is going to need a thorough scrubbing.
What? No Snoop Dogg?
But he has no time to make a call to the Steinle family.
I thought it was the first couple honoring one of the White House staff when I first read the headline—guess not.
One word comes to mind.
Ghetto.
What did obama do while his ambassador was under attack in libya?
That don't make you a hoe
Shawty, I don't mind when you work until three
If you're leaving with me
Go make that money, money, money
Your money, money, money
'Cause I know how it is, go and handle your biz
And get that money, money, money
Your money, money, money
You can take off your clothes
Long as you coming home, girl, I don't mind

"I Don't Mind", by Usher
The downward spiral continues.
All made to impress twenty-somethings hooked on garbage disguised as “music”.
Another exceptional role model like Beyoncé. Pure, good, and upstanding. /s
That's so ghetto.
I was hoping they had the class to quietly celebrate with a White House usher.
I’m such a naive optimist at times...
Hey Usher, where my seat be?!
A cupcake? The Owebamas drop hundreds of millions on personal vacations and they give fellow millionaire usher a pastrie?
We paid for their publicity stunt with street druggies and thugs (er, urban youth models), didn’t we?
Why does the white house need to employ ushers?
My head is going to explode. What a house of trash!
Was there a private viewing of Straight Out Of Compton afterwards?
Usher is rumored strongly to like boys and men like P Diddy.
He ‘discovered’ Justin Bieber.
