AceShowbiz - Even President Barack Obama can't escape the infectious "Uptown Funk" by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars. The popular YouTube channel known as Baracksdubs returned earlier this week with a video of the president "singing" the pop/R&B hit song.
Obama, of course, isn't really singing in the one-minute clip. The guys behind Baracksdub used numerous snippets from his various speeches to create the mash-up video. "Don't believe me? Just watch!" the president says over the catchy beat.
"Uptown Funk" is currently spending another week at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100. The track serves as the lead single off Ronson's "Uptown Special" album that peaked at No. 5 on Billboard 200. Baracksdub previously posted clips of Obama "performing" Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe", Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" and Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend" among others.
The latest Obama mash-up surfaces after a high school teacher in Dallas, Texas joined forces with his students to create a fun video of them dancing to "Uptown Funk". After it went viral, Mars posted the clip on his Facebook and wrote, "I cried at the end. Im still a thug though. Thank you to everyone involved in making this video."
