Actor Lancer Reddick, former star of HBO’s critically acclaimed series, The Wire, told USmagazine that while he’d love to meet President Barack Obama, he isn’t “holding his breath” for an invitation to the White House. The President has stated that The Wire was one of his favorite shows.

Reddick, who is now on Fox’s The Fringe, also made some other confessions about his  cameo in Jay-Z and Beyonce’s video for “Bonnie & Clyde.”
