Too Cute! Michelle Obama and Elmo

On Tuesday, the first lady visited Sesame Street to tape a video about health and nutrition with Elmo.

Michelle Obama told a group at the United Nations about her Michellemo moment on the most famous street in the world.

"I'm thrilled to be here, but I was just at Sesame Street -- I'm sorry," she said. "I never thought I'd be on Sesame Street with Elmo and Big Bird, and I was thrilled. I'm still thrilled. I'm on a high. I think it's probably the best thing I've done so far in the White House. But we were there talking about nutrition and healthy eating, and it's just been a thrill."
