When Jay-Z was on Jonathan Ross’ show a couple weeks ago, the British host asked him about being BFF with President Barack Obama. Hov responded that he knew Obama liked his music, but that he hadn’t had the opportunity to visit the White House yet due to a heavy travel schedule. Well, all that changed on Wednesday when Jay-Z made his first visit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue during a tour stop in Washington, D.C. White House officials confirmed the visit this morning (March 4), but remained silent on specific details. Jay-Z did apparently get the grand tour and had a quick, unscheduled visit with Obama. The President did not attend Jay-Z’s show, but we (of course) wish he did and we could get some shaky YouTube videos of his dance moves. Maybe next time.
