Some people may not have had the audacity to steal the food of a man that would one day become the president of the United States of America, but that isn't the case for Usher. On this fateful occasion, the singer decided his hunger trumped Obama's, and he stole his candy bar.
"The first time we met, we actually were in transit in his car ... kind of rolling," he explained to MTV News. "And, I'm starving, 'cause I hadn't really ate."
What happens next is one for the history books. "We had been campaigning all day, all over the place, and I kind of look around and I'm like, 'Oooh, let me eat this candy bar or whatever,' " Usher remembered. "And we both look at it, and I'm like, 'You're not gonna eat that, are you?' and he's like, 'You're not gonna eat it, are you?' I'm like, 'Well, I'm gonna eat it if you don't.' "
And guess what? He did. "So I grab and I tear it open — I took the man's meal."
Usher should be OK this time, as we're sure that the inaugural committee has planned on having enough food for everyone over the next of couple days.
Don't believe that's what happened? Listen to Usher tell the tale in the video below!
