Turns out the First Lady knows how to dunk

Miami Heat were crowned NBA Champions again last season, and as a result were invited to the White House last week to be honoured by President Obama, as is tradition for the sports teams in the major American leagues.

However, it wasn’t all just serious business with speeches and presentations, as Michelle Obama proved with this epic photobomb during an interview with Ray Allen and Dwyane Wade.

The stunt was for the First Lady’s “Let’s Move” campaign, which encourages Americans, especially kids, to get up, get out and get some exercise, as well as promoting healthy eating. She wasn’t the only one getting in on the fun as Chris Bosh, LeBron James and a few other Heat stars made their own appearances in the full ad, which is a bit of a laugh too.

You have to hand to the FLOTUS and POTUS, they know good PR when they see it, and she’s now even got her own Michael Jordan-esque logo, thanks to the lads at SB Nation.
