Larry Wilmore Jokes About Beyoncé, Killer Mike, Prince at the White House Correspondents' Dinner: Watch

This year's White House Correspondents' Dinner was President Barack Obama's last one. It was hosted by "The Nightly Show"'s Larry Wilmore, who did the annual job of roasting major figures in politics and the media. During his routine, he noted Fox News' coverage of Beyoncé's supposedly "anti-cop" Super Bowl Halftime Show performance. "Anti-cop? Come on," Wilmore said. "At the most, she's anti-pants." He also joked that the Fox News show "The Kelly File" was renamed "Becky With the Good Hair" and asked Joe Biden if he was familiar with Lemonade. He also noted the recent deaths of David Bowie, Merle Haggard, and Prince—"or as Hillary Clinton calls them, 'my favorite singer,' 'my favorite singer,' 'my favorite singer.'" Later, he discussed Bernie Sanders' affiliation with Killer Mike—"or as Hillary Clinton calls him, 'Super Predator Mike.'" Watch his full speech below (and the noted jokes above at 7:58, 10:50, and 12:33).

During previous dinners, Obama has shouted out Young Jeezy, made fun of Jay Z, and entered to DJ Khaled's "All I Do Is Win." This year, Khaled attended the dinner as Arianna Huffington's date.
