The Obamas – along with a host of other stars including Jennifer Hudson, Cee Lo Green and Conan O’Brien – got in the festive spirit yesterday for the concert of Christmas carols to benefit the Children’s National Medical Center  here in the Nation’s Capital. 

In honour of the ‘season to celebrate miracles’, Obama spoke about the story of Jesus’ birth during a short speech to the crowd.  He said the story of Jesus Christ has changed the world by teaching basic values such as loving one another, serving the less fortunate and keeping faith.

Justin Bieber, Cee Lo Green, Jennifer Hudson, The Band Perry and Nickelodeon star Victoria Justice took turns singing holiday classics.

The concert will air on Friday on TNT.
