Obama plans to attend another celebrity-fueled fundraising event, this time with A-list stars Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z.

Beyonce sent out the following email to the president’s fundraising list, with the headline “I don’t usually email you.”

Charlie –

I usually don’t email you — but I have an amazing invitation I have to share.

Jay and I will be meeting up with President Obama for an evening in NYC sometime soon. And we want you to be there!

Until midnight tonight, if you pitch in $15 or whatever you can, you’ll be automatically entered to be flown out to join us.

I’ve had the honor of meeting President Obama and the First Lady a few times — and believe me — it’s an opportunity you don’t want to miss.

Don’t worry about the airfare and hotel, it’s taken care of. And you can bring a guest.

But the countdown is on — this opportunity ends at midnight:

Can’t wait to meet you!

Love,

Beyoncé

 

President Obama and/or First Lady Michelle Obama have personally attended over 30 fundraisers hosted or attended by prominent celebrities.
