Michelle Obama Does Tonight Show Sketch with Fallon and Ferrell in Drag

Michelle Obama appeared on a Tonight Show sketch Thursday night to promote her Let’s Move! campaign… next to Jimmy Fallon and Will Ferrell in drag. Yep, in a sketch for a fake Nickelodeon show called Ew!, the First Lady popped in to show “Stacy” and “Sarah” why eating right and exercising are not “ew!” things to do.

Obama played things relatively straight, using the opportunity to encourage these little girls (who looked a lot like large men in barely-fitting costumes) that calorie-burning dance parties and eating kale chips every once in a while is actually good for you.

And then, there’s just the unexpected hilarity of the First Lady of the United States shouting “ew!” like a little girl.
