Barack Obama

It marks Obama’s first TV talk show appearance since leaving the White House.

My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman premieres this Friday, 12 January on Netflix.

We’d previously reported that the 44th President of the United States of America would be Letterman’s first guest on his new show, and now we have a fresh teaser with which to whet appetites accordingly.

Fresh from sharing his favourite sounds of 2017, Obama stays on the music theme with a typically everyday anecdote of how he danced with the late, great Prince shortly before The Purple One’s sudden passing.

Find out all about his “dad moves” in the clip below.

Episodes for the hour-long, six-part series will be rolled out once a month, with future chats confirmed with Jay-Z, George Clooney, Malala Yousafazi, Tina Fey and ‘shock jock’ extraordinaire Howard Stern.
