On Saturday, Michelle and Barack Obama proved once again that they are living their best post-White House life when they attended Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s concert in Maryland, near their home of Washington, D.C. Not only did they prove they are having the best time, but they also showed they still have the best dance moves of any presidential family in U.S. history (and that’s zero percent an exaggeration).
During the concert, fans captured footage of the former First Couple as they sang along with the music and danced with friends in their box seats. Twitter reveled in Michelle’s perfectly executed moves, while Barack—well, Barack kept it classic, showing off his world-famous “dad” moves. The videos are thoroughly delightful.
And really, this is just the kind of thing you’d expect from the post-political Obamas. After all, this was Michelle’s second On the Run II Tour concert in as many weeks, proving she might just be queen of the Beyhive fandom. In early July, she was spotted alongside Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, and her youngest daughter Sasha at the couple’s tour stop in Paris. (To say we’re a little envious is an understatement.) This time, however, it made it all the more special that Barry was at the D.C.-area concert too.
Look at these two:

It’s not super-surprising, however: The two couples have been friends for years, dating back to at least 2009, when Bey performed at then-President Obama’s first inauguration. She also sang the national anthem at his second inauguration event in 2013.
In 2011, Michelle and Beyoncé teamed up to help promote the then-First Lady’s “Let’s Move” campaign to help end childhood obesity in America. And in 2014, Michelle was spotted at her first Beyoncé concert in Chicago, according to CNN, to which she also brought daughters Sasha and Malia along.
