Tim Jonze 

Beyoncé’s way of telling you to eat your greens

Tim Jonze: If anything's going to persuade America to get fit then it's Beyoncé jumping around to dancehall in a school canteen
  
  



When the UK tried to get serious about healthy eating recently it involved some plasticine figurines talking about sausages in northern accents. America, it seems, is one step ahead. And several dance steps ahead, too. Here's Beyoncé in a school canteen, reworking Get Me Bodied with a new video to encourage kids to hurl their Turkey Twizzlers in the air and shake their stuff to a bit of R&B and dancehall.

At least that's what Michelle Obama's hoping – the track is part of her Let's Move campaign, which has been thrilling US conservatives.

It's brilliant – and possibly more exciting than Beyoncé's official single, Run the World (Girls), the video for which we still await – so let's just ignore the fact that, were you to try this in your own school canteen you'd get royally bollocked.
