Somewhere between Kendall Jenner walking her first White House Correspondents' Dinner red carpet and President Obama being the coolest president ever, the two ended up meeting backstage.
But if you thought the 20-year-old model was as calm, cool, and collected as she is when meeting other non-Jenner-Kardashian humans, think again. Jenner told People that though she typically doesn't get starstruck, meeting POTUS for the first time changed all that: "Never," she said, "That was like my first time ever."
So what exactly did this unlikely pair chat about? "He was like, 'Say hi to Kim and Kanye," Jenner said. "I was like, 'Okay.'"
Way to keep it cool, Kendall.
Momager Kris Jenner however had little to no chill and was quick to post photos of Jenner's gorgeous look on Instagram: "I know she's proud," said Kendall. "She's all over it."

Kendall eventually posted her own picture from the event of her and her, erm, companions for the night:

As for President Obama's side of the story, he went on to mention her in his opening remarks saying, "Kendall Jenner is also here. We had a chance to meet her backstage and she seems like a very nice young woman," he said. "I'm not exactly sure what she does but I am told that my Twitter mentions are about go through the roof."
Exactly, Mr. President. Exactly.
Watch him mention Jenner in his speech here, because of course Kris Jenner 'grammed it:
