April 11, 2011 by The Master Chief

Beyonce recently joined forces with First Lady Michelle Obama in her efforts to fight childhood obesity, which will be done by promoting healthy eating and regular exercise.

As a part of the newly launched “Lets Move! Flash Workout” campaign, Beyonce has re-worked a song of hers called “Get Me Bodied” (which appeared on her 2006 sophomore album B’Day) and renamed it to “Move Your Body.” The dance track will be featured on an instructional exercise video that will be viewed by participating schools on May 3rd.

“I am excited to be part of this effort that addresses a public health crisis,” Beyonce said in a statement.First Lady Michelle Obama deserves credit for tackling this issue directly, and I applaud the NAB Education Foundation for trying to make a positive difference in the lives of our schoolchildren.”

Check out a preview of the video (and a first-listen of “Move Your Body”) below!
