Michelle Obama has got a playlist that keeps her moving!

The First Lady, who created the “Let’s Move” Campaign to enforce children to stay active, talks about the type of music she listens to that keeps her moving.

In a video response for the “Let’s Move” campaign, she says, “I always love Beyoncé, so anything fast-paced that she’s doing is a good one for me. But I have very eclectic tastes, so my playlist on my iPod, which I listen to, runs from fast paced to a little more mellow.”

In a talk on “Take Your Children to Work Day” last year, Michelle shared her love of music, “I love to dance, I love a good beat.”

We certainly love how she works hard and plays hard!
