Barack Obama has named Beyonce’s 'Crazy In Love' as his favourite song to work out to.

The US President was being interviewed by Albuquerque’s KOB-FM about the less serious side of life when he was asked what music he is listening to at the moment.

He said: “I will say right now that if I'm really trying to get my heart rate up, Crazy In Love is a pretty good song to work out to.”

As well as mentioning Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind & Fire and Jay-Z as his favourite acts, the 51-year-old also discussed Carly Rae Jepsen’s 'Call Me Maybe,' admitting that the only version he’s heard is the spliced up version of him singing it through various speeches, before adding: “But you know, it looks like a cute pop song.”
