Barack goes Hollywood!

President Obama paid a call to Glendale this afternoon and bumped into Steve Martin at Dreamworks before giving a fundraising speech:

Entering the studio for his tour, Obama extended a hand to Martin, who informed him he had a slight cold. So the commander in chief and the once wild-and-crazy guy bumped elbows instead.

"How's the banjo playing?" Obama asked

"Better than ever," Martin replied.

Obama mentioned that Martin had played the banjo at the White House.

"The fact that I played banjo at the White House was the biggest thrill (pause) of his life," Martin cracked.

"That's how I felt," Obama deadpanned. "Biggest thrill of my life. Inauguration? Nothing."

Here's the speech which is pretty funny and raised 2.1 million for local races!
