Saturday night (April 27) was the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner, which hosted many important faces in the political sphere, as well as celebrities ... and the cast of 'Duck Dynasty.' (No, we're not sure how that happened either.)

This year, the star-studded event was headlined by Conan O'Brien, who had the distinction of leading the event once before in 1995 for President Bill Clinton. And of course President Barack Obama tried out his own hand at stand-up, too.

Because the main person you should trust with secrets of national and planetary security is Will Smith (especially when he's on his way to a barbecue), we're actually not too shocked at the fact that his son, Jaden Smith, says President Barack Obama told him about aliens.

President Barack Obama, our 44th president, has been sworn in for his second term, and the inauguration was exactly the star-studded occasion we've come to expect from our celeb-popular Commander-in-Chief.

Celebrities Take to Twitter as President Obama Is Inaugurated for a Second Term

Kathy Landin — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 18:40:54 +0000

Just like us, when celebrities watch or are a part of something historical, they want to tweet about it. Which beats yet another missive about concert dates or a regretful shot of a naked body part.

Anyway, Monday's Presidential Inauguration was nothing shy of a major event for our country -- Barack Obama, our nation’s first African-American president, was sworn in on Martin Luther King Jr. Day using MLK’s own bible, after which he gave an inspiring speech inclusive of many still-downtrodden groups and told us we have work to do to ensure freedom for all Americans.

Oh, and Michelle Obama has a new haircut!

Fine. Time magazine was right – Barack Obama is the Person of the Year. We can’t argue with this photo, which was taken back in October. The kid dressed up as Spider-Man is one of President Obama’s staffer’s kids. So no real threat was posed, whichÂ we guessÂ explains why the Secret Service isn’t taking him down. [...]
