I am a legally married woman because of him and so is my wife. (applause) His courage and compassion created a quality for everyone, he moved us forward and made more happen in the past 8 years than I've ever dreamed possible. I love him, I love Michelle. Here's a little bit of time we spent together over the last 8 years. Our first guest who'd made history by becoming the first African-American president of the United States. You gotta really want that job bad because that's just tons of pressure. It's like being the host of Ellen Almost, it's almost that kind of pressure. We have a brand new president of the United States! Your husband is a good dancer but you're a better dancer than him. - I know! That's what I've been telling them. (dancing) I always carry around this, that Ellen gave me, it means a lot to me. I'd better get back to work. I just wonder if you can do more push-ups than I can do. You know, it depends on how your back is. I know you've got the "back issues." No, no. (doing push-ups) While I was in D.C., I went to the White House and I stole something. It's Bo Obama, I took their dog. Michelle, you can get him back if you admit that you cheated in our push-up contest. Both you and Michelle are really, really amazing. Michelle is such a strong wonderful role model for all women and you know, she's been a great first lady. That is indisputable. Somebody call the Situation Room, because things are about to get hot. Michelle, this Valentine's Day I'm gonna treat you right. Because I love you so much. I Obama care (Obamacare) about you more than you even know. When I see you two together, you seem very loving and very close. Laughter is huge and I think you have that down. And mutual respect, he's always had my back. What an amazing day for our country! President Obama just came out and supported same-sex marriage and I said, WOW. There have been moments in history when someone has had the courage to stand up for what they believe in, and that one action changes everything, and I hope that this is one of those times. It takes a brave man to take a stand like this, so, Mr. President, to you I say thank you very, very, very much. Thank you. I apologize for doing it but I broke your retweet record. I heard about that. I thought that's a pretty cheap stunt myself. We have a little presidential expert, her name is Macey Hensley and I'd like you to meet her. This is a big moment, whatever you want to ask, what's your first question? So, is there really a book of secrets? That's a secret. So this is the presidential seal where I signed it on the back. In case you become president, you will already have one, you don't even have to get a new one. - Thank you. - You're welcome Please welcome my co-host for the day, the first lady Michelle Obama. Oh, Stephen... Michelle, what kind of cream do you need for that rash that you were telling me about? The rash? Don't, don't tell people about my rash! We need a cream for a rash that, uh, Shelley asked. Where is the rash? What area were you telling me about? My shoulder. Umm lower than that. I cannot tell you or thank you enough for what you've done for the gay community. So, thank you. Changing hearts and minds...I don't think anyone has been more influential than you are. Attitudes shift and the laws followed. But it started with folks like you. And now after having served for 7 years and having got a lot done, and seeing the process that we've made, seeing the incredible resilience of the American people, I feel confident that America's gonna do well. And I'm just as enthusiastic as I was the first day I started. And that's why I stand here as confident as I have ever been, that the state of our union is strong. Thank you. God Bless. God bless the United States of America. Thank you for everything, President Obama, First Lady Michelle. We will miss you so much.
