Boxers or Briefs? Prince Harry went there in a game of “This or That” with former POTUS Barack Obama.
According to TMZ Prince Harry was guest hosting the “Today” radio show Wednesday and played ‘This or That’ during his interview with Obama. ‘This or That’ is a game that consists of a lightning round of questions, the main idea being that you have to choose one item or the other. Some of his questions to Obama included: Boxers or briefs, Lebron or Jordan, Aretha or Tina, and more…
The interview was recorded in September during the Invictus Games, a parasport event for wounded, injured or sick armed services personnel and their associated veterans that took place in Toronto, Canada.
So does the former President prefer boxers or briefs? He didn’t answer that one, but he did answer some other pretty interesting questions.
Listen to his responses below.
TELL US: What would you have asked Barack?

Here is the President of the United States, shoes and socks off in respect, posing like a Western tourist in front of the oldest pagoda in the world in a country that no American President had ever been able to visit.

Source:Instagram 34 of 5635. May 2013. Another impromptu meeting. Note for the photo geeks: one of the benefits of my access is the luxury of time. Time to try and frame my photograph in an optimal way. My camera is always on the silent mode so I'm somewhat stealth as I make photographs in the Oval. Plus people by now are so used to me always being around. So I can make slight adjustments in where I stand, sit or in this case, kneel for the right angle, without interfering what is taking place. I try to position myself so as I look through the viewfinder the background directly behind the President is not too distracting. In this photo, I also was consciously trying to line up Lincoln, Washington and the Emancipation Proclamation so they were all visible in the background. And then I waited for a moment while continuing to watch my background in case there were slight movements sideways by the President's aides.
Source:Instagram 35 of 5636. May 2013. "Jack, it's a nice day, let's meet outside." Or something along those lines. That's how the President's scheduled meeting with Treasury Secretary was moved from the Oval Office to the Rose Garden.

Source:Instagram 42 of 5643. This family. What can I say. What an honor to have photographed them for eight years. A couple of months ago, the Social Office came to me and said they were thinking of using a family photo for this year's White House holiday card. So I thought of Justin Trudeau. I know you're wondering what the heck I'm talking about. Earlier this year we hosted the Canadian Prime Minister for a formal State Dinner. Malia and Sasha attended as guests. Before the dinner, I did a family photo in the White House residence. But later, when the Trudeaus arrived, the two families spent some time on the Truman Balcony with their respective delegations. At one point, the Prime Minister asked if we could do a photo of he and his wife with the Obama family. Click, click, click. Then, he said I should do a photo of just the Obama's. I could have said, "sir we already did one before you arrived." But instead, I clicked off a few quick frames. And lo and behold, it was this picture that Justin Trudeau asked me to take which everyone loved as the choice for the 2016 White House holiday card.

Starting to go through my edit for the annual Year In Photos and I can still hear the President singing along with Sam Moore and Usher during a salute to Ray Charles. A great memory but not sure the photo will make it in. What you'd say? Yes? No? Maybe?

Source:Instagram 47 of 5648. Culling down my Year in Photographs. These two are in my loose edit. The top one shows the President drinking tap water in Flint, Michigan after a panel discussion on the tainted water supply. He had also sipped water in front of the television cameras but I felt this was more of a genuine moment after the press had departed. The bottom photo is him drinking a beer while filming a food segment with Anthony Bourdain in Vietnam. Although the top photo is symbolically important and the bottom one received a lot of attention at the time, my inclination is to not include either in my final edit. Let me know if you agree or disagree.

Source:Instagram 54 of 5655. See link in my profile for my 2016 Year in Photographs. It's sometimes difficult to explain how my editing process works. It's important to include some variety showing the President at both work and play. And hopefully some of these photographs in the final edit are the best ones I've taken throughout the year. I included this one of the Obama family visiting the new African American Museum of History and Culture even though it may not be among my "best". But, to me, it is an important photograph for this time in history. The fact that this museum opened while this family was living at the White House; how great is that. Historically. Symbolically. Maybe even emotionally.
