After they stepped up from their positions as President and First Lady, Barack and Michelle Obama were showered with many thank yous from people and celebrities altogether.

Many took to social media to express gratefulness and say goodbye, while others chose to do something different.

The video features Evan Rachel Wood, Jim Parsons, Neil Patrick Harris, Drew Barrymore and many more.

“You presided over one of the most positive periods ever in the lives of gay Americans. How can we ever thank you?” said Jim Parsons.

“You made what seemed truly impossible…possible”, said Jonathan Groff.

Beyonce chose to thank the former presidential couple by posting a picture on her Instagram, captioned simply: “Thank you”.

Rihanna also posted a picture of Obama and captioned it with “worst breakup ever”.

“I am honored I was able to witness your presidency, and I have been forever changed, educated, guided and inspired by you,” said Zoe Saldana.

Model Chanel Iman thanked for the “amazing grace, dignity and integrity” and for inspiring everyone.

Kelly Rowland shared several pictures of the couple through the years, starting from university, to a wedding photo, to one with their two daughters.
