Hip hop power couple Beyonce and Jay-Z recently hosted a fundraiser for Obama's re-election and raised more than $4 million for the president. During the event, Obama joked with Jay-Z saying "Jay-Z now knows, you know, what my life is like. We both have daughters. And our wives are more popular than we are... So we've got a little bond there. It's hard, but it's okay."

He went on to continue singing Beyonce's praises claiming "Beyonce couldn't be a better role model for my girls." If that's not the ultimate confidence boost I don't know what is. Do you agree with the President? Is Beyonce one of the best role models for kids today?

However, I do not know the Obama kids or Beyonce. Maybe he wants them to be in the public eye. That is what they has protrayed for them since they have been if office.

I thought Obamaand his wife, the man who says his girls children ( his own grand children ) might be considered worthy of a disgusting horrible violent death because they could be considered punishments from the same god he also claims he worships , is supposed to be his childrens role model? Hmm. I guess he does not even understand the words " role model".

Barrack and Beyonce and JZ all cozy up at the white house after they give him millions to continue to campaign, while America is unemployed, the debt has tripled under his presidency and the middle east are burning American Flags and killing people. Way to go Obama, who voted for this guy, ooh yea the people who follow pop culture, boring.

You sure couldn't get a worse roll model than him or his wife, he was raised to be a communist who hates the west, and her only job was making sure poor people didn't get admitted to the hospital she worked for.

If I pay $500 to $5000 a ticket, I want the bad ass Byonce on stage at her best and nastiest. She isn't 12yrs old, and there don't be any children that aren't wise enough to know " stage person" and "off stage person".

I agree with the people who said that saying "Beyonce couldn't be a better role model for my girls." is diffrent from saying she's the best role model.

Beyonce has a husband and daughter... good. She makes a lot of money.... good. Gives to charity... good. Looks beautiful....good.

But does Obama really think that Beyonce makes a better role model than his wife Michelle Obama? Obama likes Beyonce more than Nancy Pelosi? Or Maxine Waters?

Beyonce makes a good role model, but I can think of better ones: Meg Whitman, Condi Rice, Sarah Palin...

Most of you people are so cruel. I think that is a perfect person to be their role model. She's lovely, is married, and has a new baby. She's never had a bad reputation. When Kanye got on stage and interrupted Taylor Swift, SHE apologized. She's lovely.

I agree 100%. There is nothing wrong with Beyonce. She is talented and has worked hard for her dreams. I never hear about her being involved with drugs. She is sexy without being trashy. She is married with a child. She has done everything right in her life. If I had a teenaged daughter I would have no problem if she idolized Beyonce. Teenagers have idols they look up to. It's natural. Beyonce is a perfect woman.
