The Obamas Wish Usher Happy Birthday In This Adorable Video

This really happened.

Grammy award-winning singer, Usher Raymond IV, turned 37 on Wednesday and he got the best birthday surprise ever from the president and first lady.

The R&B heartthrob posted a video to Facebook on Saturday of President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama serenading him with "Happy Birthday" while holding a cupcake lit with a single candle.

Raymond, accompanied by his wife, was surprised by the gesture, and pointed to the camera in disbelief saying, "Are you getting this?"

The singer was invited to Washington, D.C., with other musicians, including Queen Latifah, Smokey Robinson and cellist Esperanza Spalding for the filming of a PBS concert series, "In Performance at the White House," which took place on Raymond's birthday.

"I couldn't be more grateful for this moment and all of the birthday wishes," Raymond wrote in the caption.

This has to be the best present ever! Happy birthday Usher!
