The duo begin singing Stevie Wonder, then Beyonce's \"Single Ladies\" comes on. Obama brings on her own Sasha Fierce during the jam session and performing all the dance moves.

\"We were making honey there in the [Bey] Hive,\" she jokes. \"Honey to put in our lemonade!\"

During the clip, Obama explains it's \"the people\" around the White House that she's going to miss the most after she and the president leave the White House in January. Obama and Corden also have a fun, lengthy discussion about her Secret Service code-name \"Renaissance\" and Snapchat.

Around the 10-minute mark, Missy Elliott pops out of nowhere to sing \"This Is For My Girls.\"

Watch the full clip above and see Obama's rendition of \"Get Ur Freak On.\" #NoCursing!
