-I introduced you to Barack Obama?
Do you remember that? -Oh, my God.
That is probably the most nervous
I've ever been in my life. I had butterflies in my stomach.
I was completely and utterly starstruck.
I was gagging. -You were so adorable.
Here's what happened. I go to --
-He's so hot.
[ Laughter ] Sorry.
-I have President Barack Obama on the show and Madonna,
and I asked for you to come on, and I was like --
So I said to the president, President Obama,
I go, "Have you ever met Madonna?"
He goes, "Nope." [ Laughter ]
-He probably doesn't even know --
-"You never met Madonna?" He's like, "Nope. Never did."
-Nope. [ Laughter ]
-"Do you want to go meet her right now?"
He goes, "Sure." [ Laughter ]
All right. And so I let you know.
I go, "Madonna, I'm gonna introduce --
I'm gonna bring the President over,
and you're like, "Okay." And you're just so, like,
Madonna-y... [ Laughter ]
and, like, looking gorgeous, and you were just awesome.
You're, like, so kind of, like, flirty and stuff like that.
And he wanted -- he was so presidential and wanted nothing.
He's like, "Hello. How are you?
Nice to see you. Hello, yep, nice to see you.
Pleasure." [ Laughter ]
And then you go -- And I'll never forget this.
You said to him, you go,
"You're the only reason I'm doing this show."
[ Laughter ]
I go, "I can hear you! I can hear you."
[ Sad trombone ] I was right there!
I was introducing -- -I'm sorry, but the truth hurts.
So, now we don't have any --
We have no distractions, and there are no illusions.
I am only here to see you.
-See, wow, thank you so much. I've grown.
I feel -- Thank you so much. Our relationship has grown.
-Your hair has grown. -It really has.
And I'll grow this out. I'll figure this out.
I want to talk about a couple of things.
Another curveball that you threw this year
is you're announcing your tour. -Mm-hmm.
-And I go, "Great. What are you gonna do that's --
I know you're gonna do something different."
-Different.
-And again you zigged when I thought you were gonna zag.
You zagged when I thought you were gonna zig.
You're doing these intimate shows.
-Mm-hmm. -You're doing BAM
for 17 nights in Brooklyn. -I know. Am I crazy?
-Yes. -Are you guys gonna come?
[ Cheers and applause ] -It's already sold out.
It's already sold out. We can't even get tickets to it.
You can't even buy tickets right now if you want.
But why did you decide -- That's like --
You do stadiums. -Because I want to --
Yeah, but I did that already.
I want to do something different.
-I didn't think you were gonna do that.
I love that you're doing this. -But why not?
But everything -- You have to keep changing.
That's what life is all about. -But where are you gonna go?
I mean, you're gonna do that in Brooklyn --
-I'm gonna only play small theaters,
and I'm gonna stay in one city for long periods of time.
And I'm gonna get to know people.
I'm gonna look into their eyes. -Wow.
-I'm gonna sit on people's laps, I'm gonna --
I might even tell a few jokes.
-I want to -- 'cause I think the audience is a little jealous
that I got to dance with you, and I thought it could be fun
if maybe, 'cause at the end of your song with Maluma,
you go "Cha cha cha." And I thought --
-I probably say it a lot during the song,
not just at the end, but okay.
-Well, you do, but at the end, it ends with --
your last words are "Cha cha cha."
-That's right. -And I was thinking maybe
we could do a cha-cha or give me a lesson
on how to do the cha-cha. -I would love to.
-With the audience. You guys want to dance with --
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Okay, but, wait.
Have you done your stretches?
-[ Laughs ] I have not done my stretching.
-Well, there's two levels to the cha-cha.
So, are you guys gonna do it, too?
-Yeah. [ Cheers ]
-Well, you got to stand up. -All right.
We'll do it over here. We'll face this way.
And then the audience will be behind us doing it.
-Okay, but can I show them before I turn around
and give them my back? -Yes, of course, yes.
-Okay, so this part, you put your hands on your hips.
If you're wearing a dress, lift it up, okay?
[ Laughter ] -This is the cha-cha?
-Put your feet together. [ Laughter ]
So, you go one, two, cha, cha, cha.
One, two, cha, cha, cha.
And one, two, cha, cha, cha.
That's right. Okay? -All right, that's good.
-Got that? -You guys got that?
Can we do it? Let's try it, let's try it.
Ready? -So, you got to do
the butterfly first. -Butterfly first, and then --
-Yeah, right, left, right, left, stand up, and then...okay?
You got that? -I love this.
Come on. We're gonna dance with Madonna!
Are you guys ready? [ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
-Okay. Two, three, four.
One, two. Go to the left.
Now, right, and left.
And put your knees together now.
One, two, cha, cha, cha.
And stand up. One, two, cha, cha, cha.
-We just cha-cha'd with Madonna!
How about that? [ Cheers and applause ]
-Madonna! Pick up Madonna's deluxe version
of "Madame X" with two extra tracks at Target now!
Madonna!
Up next, Guy Raz. Stick around, everybody.
