Pop culture icons turning into presidents is nothing new think former Presidents Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump.
However, the opposite transition from president to pop culture behemoth is far rarer.
For the former president, his inspiration can be traced back to one thing: storytelling.

“A story that gives us meaning and purpose and how we organize our lives.”
We are known to watch other things," Barack said.
He revealed that he enjoys dystopian sci-fi and thrillers, whereas Michelle prefers more lighthearted, inspiring stories.
