“DROP. THE. GODDAMN. MIC. I met my hero. And yes, tears were present,” Emilia wrote alongside a series of pics from the epic meeting.
Adding, “As were my terrible, terrible jokes. (Barack Obama) thank you for being alive.”
The pair met at a Dreamforce conference in San Francisco last week, where they were both keynote speakers alongside Apple CEO Tim Cook, Olympian Megan Rapinoe and David Beckham.
And Obama wasn’t the only star Emilia met at the event!
The “Last Christmas” star also posted snaps backstage at a Fleetwood Mac concert during the Dreamforce conference in which she posed with the band’s singer, Stevie Nicks.
