Barack Obama: does fundraiser with Jay-Z and Beyonce

Posted: Updated:
NEW YORK -

President Barack Obama says he and Jay-Z have a lot in common. He says he and the rapper both love basketball. But it doesn't end there.

The president notes he and Jay-Z both have daughters. And the main thing: he says both he and Jay-Z have wives who are more famous than they are.

The crack at his and Jay-Z's expense came at a fundraiser at the rapper's 40/40 Club. Beyonce said she and Jay-Z backed Obama because he shares their vision for America.

The president says his wife and two daughters were upset that they didn't get to go to the event. He notes they usually aren't crazy about fundraisers, but would have been glad to be there to see Beyonce and Jay-Z.
