Michelle Obama brought Broadway and some of its brightest stars to the White House on Monday to celebrate the performing arts.

Gloria Estefan, legendary composer Andrew Llyod Webber, Whoopi Goldberg, and Glee star Matthew Morrison were just some of the big names welcomed to the East Room on Monday.

Estefan sang music from On Your Feet!, a show based on the story of her life, and Morrison sang music from Finding Neverland. Other performances featured music from Fun Home, An American in Paris, School of Rock, and Something Rotten.

Michelle Obama danced the Conga while encouraging others to get out on the floor and dance. The festivities carried over into the late night while Michelle showed off some very impressive dance moves.

Once again, while the while the rest of the world reels and shows their respect to the French victims the Obama's don't let it spoil their parties. In very bad taste, can't they wait at least a few days to "pretend" they're saddened by the deaths?

Given the dimensions of that caboose, it would be risky to dance anywhere in proximity.

As to the timing, not even the royals in France long ago were as out of touch as these pampered race-baiters.

Cancelling a party after booking so many important artists would be a huge waste of taxpayer money.....

Moo would never allow that to happen....

Why would the Obama family let a minor set back like the Paris attacks stop their celebrations two days later? Michelle led a Congo line of 200 plus Hollyweirdos, friends and family through the rooms of the White House before the bodies in Paris reached room temperature but she did so with a heavy heart.

I have seen a family so out of touch.

I have visited Versailles, as no doubt others here have.

The royals there were probably not more out of touch than folks in DC today.
