Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 01 Aug, 2015 11:44 AM

United States' First Lady Michelle Obama has joked that she wants to be singer Beyonce Knowles.

When asked by rapper Wale, while promoting their Reach Higher campaign, what she would like to do if she had a different occupation, Michelle was quick to answer.

"I would be Beyonce," before breaking into the 'Single Ladies' dance and joked, "I've got the hand up," Michelle said.

Beyonce even performed at Michelle's 50th birthday last year, apart from performing at her husband President Barack Obama's second inauguration in 2013.
