fun. frontman Nate Reuss says the band's performance at US President Barack Obama's Inauguration will be "super, super emotional".

The 'We Are Young' hitmakers - also comprising Jack Antonoff and Andrew Dost - are set to take to the stage at the 57th Presidential Inauguration Ceremony later this month, alongside artists including Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry and Beyoncé.

Reuss has revealed what people can expect from fun.'s show, telling MTV News: "You bring a lot of emotion [to the performance]. I was writing a set list for it, and three of the songs could be closely related to how we feel about Obama and the change he's been involved in making. For me, it's super, super emotional."

Reuss has joked about what he hopes President Obama will do to bandmate Dost, cheekily adding: "We think he's going to heckle Andrew [Dost]. That's kind of what we're hoping for. He doesn't have to say anything to us, as long as he heckles Andrew.

"Maybe de-pants him or something. I guess Obama could get cooler. He could de-pants Andrew."
