Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) knows how to have fun, whether he's dad-dancing with Jimmy Fallon or doing the ice-bucket challenge. This weekend, Christie proved his skills once again at a party in the Hamptons.
The benefit event, which raised $4 million for Harlem's Apollo theater, was attended by celebrities ranging from Sir Paul McCartney to Robert de Niro. When Jamie Foxx went onstage to perform, he called Christie to join him, and Christie was happy to bust a move for the audience. Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) then did the robot with Foxx as well.
"That was one hell of a night. Christie really held his own," Jack Nicholson told the New York Post. "I told him, as he walked back to his seat, 'Governor, you can't let New Jersey down.'" --Meghan DeMaria
