It's only a minute long. You can bear that:



It was actually on 29 May 2012, despite what it says in the title.

I think it is a great honour (even for him) but it would be uncool to show it. He could have taken off the glasses, though...  8)

He never seems comfortable at these sorts of events- and he's had quite a few of them.  Embarrassment? A basic shyness? Fearful of acting uncool or appearing unhip? Who knows?

"Keep a clean nose / Watch the plain clothes" and you end up in the White House getting a high honour placed around your neck by your President.

He obviously enjoyed that one very much!
