Video: Jimmy Fallon gets physical with Michelle Obama in the White House

Jimmy Fallon traveled to Washington this week to try and one-up Ellen DeGeneres when it comes to challenging the first lady as part of her Let’s Move! initiative.

After Ellen lost to Michelle Obama in a push-up contest (the talk show host later claimed she cheated), Fallon took his talents directly to Mrs. O’s home turf – the White House – and battled the first lady in not just pushups, but also in a tug-o-war, hula hoops, dodge ball and even a potato sack race.

Let’s just say both were willing to win by any means necessary. 

The segment aired on Wednesday’s “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.” Watch in its entirety at left.
