10:23AM Jess McGuire | Just in case you missed this yesterday, I thought I would draw your attention to the following clip of Beyonce singing ‘At Last’ while Barack and Michelle Obama share their first dance as President and First Lady of the United States Of America. I actually surprised myself by crying when I watched this.
When Beyonce hits that “WHOAAAAAH” bit and Barack pretends to sing it to Michelle while they slow dance, IT IS JUST LIKE IN DIRTY DANCING WHEN PATRICK SWAYZE MOUTHS “AND I OWE IT ALL TO YOU” TO JENNIFER GREY.
FACT.
Swoon x A BILLION.
PS: My beloved gay Will pointed out that Beyonce also performed at the last president’s inauguration back in the day, and asked me “How are you reconciling the fact that she performed at Bush’s inauguration as well? Having a bit both ways! This bitch should have been excluded from these proceedings! Coming crawling back now! Words cannot describe the ego of Beyonce. But nothing would really surprise me with her anymore.” And he is right, I suppose. But oh! The above moment is so lovely, I will forgive Beyonce anything.

Barbara Walters Tries, Fails To Sell Her Dog to the Obamas
7:10AM Kyle Buchanan | Clearly, the most pressing aspect of President-elect Barack Obama’s transition is what kind of freaking puppy he will be getting his daughters Malia and Sasha — and everyone’s weighing in with their opinion. Frequent watchers of The View know that Barbara Walters is borderline obsessive about imploring the Obamas to adopt a pooch similar to her Havanese dog Cha Cha (short for “Cha Cha Cha,” natch), so when it was announced that Walters would be interviewing the couple for a special to air this week, we immediately combed through the transcript to see if she would take the opportunity to push Cha Cha on them once more.
