Politico has a piece up today on more of the president’s television shenanigans. There’s absolutely no way to justify this, however:
And on Tuesday Mariah Carey’s husband, Nick Cannon, was using the White House as a backdrop for a promo of the NBC reality show “America’s Got Talent,” which he hosts.
The White House had cleared Cannon in to do the spot. The rapper/actor was on the North Lawn giving his pitch while the president of South Korea’s motorcade rolled by in the background.
“Talent is taking over the world,” he shouted, as the pillars of White House gleamed in the distance.
Maybe they’ll hold auditions for American Idol on the South Lawn next season?
