MR. MARTIN:  We’ve heard the President sing, but have you ever wondered what his wife and daughters actually think about it?

In an interview this week, Tom Wills of WJXT in Jacksonville, Florida, surprised the President with this question.

[VIDEO CLIP OF INTERVIEW.]

MR. TOM WILLS:  We’ve heard you sing.

PRES. OBAMA:  [Chuckles.]

MR. WILLS:  We’ve seen you do stand-up at the Correspondents’ Dinner.  I was just wondering if you would give any thought to being on “American Idol” or “America’s Got Talent.”  You’d be a big hit, Mr. President.

PRES. OBAMA:  [Chuckles.]  Let me tell you.  My wife and my daughters find me embarrassing enough when I start performing.

MR. WILLS:  [Chuckles.]

PRES. OBAMA:  They certainly don’t want a large, national audience seeing me i- — in those kinds of situations.  So, I’m – I’m going to try to keep it – my singing to the shower most of the time.

[END OF VIDEO CLIP.]

MR. MARTIN:  [Chuckles.]  I understand.
