It's another demonstration of the ongoing love fest between first lady Michelle Obama and the first lady of pop music, Beyoncé.

Obama released a video snippet on Instagram of an interview she did with rapper Wale during a college-preparation event at the White House a few weeks back.

When Wale asked what advice Obama would give her college self, she responded: "Don't be afraid and to ask for help."
