Hillary Clinton learns the ‘Nae Nae’

Hillary Clinton is getting schooled on how to whip and nae nae.

The Democratic presidential candidate got a lesson on the dance craze that’s performed to rapper Silento’s song “Watch Me” from talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and DJ Stephen “tWitch” Boss during a taping of “Ellen” earlier this week.

Clinton, 67, also weighed in on Kanye West’s announcement that he intends to run for president in 2020. The rapper declared his political ambitions during an acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards last month.

“I would only ask him, if I’m running for reelection, to wait,” Clinton said. “But otherwise, a lot of people want to run for president these days.”

One person who won’t legally be allowed to make a White House bid for another 34 years is Clinton’s almost-one-year-old granddaughter, Charlotte. Clinton revealed the child doesn’t yet have a name for her grandmother because “she doesn’t have that many words yet.”

When asked by DeGeneres what she’d like to be called by Charlotte, the former first lady replied, “Well you know, I’m fine with ‘Grandma.’ I’m fine with ‘Madame President.’ I mean whatever strikes her fancy.”

DeGeneres’s full interview with Clinton airs Thursday on “Ellen.”
