Typically, a sit-down with the president is an honor reserved for only the most senior and respected White House reporters. But at 5PM, President Obama will take questions from some unusual interviewers.

Typically, a sit-down with the president is an honor reserved for only the most senior and respected White House reporters. But at 5 PM, President Obama will continue his administration's practice of working with new media by agreeing to take questions from some unusual interviewers.

Think of it as a teeny-bopper AMA, or at least a more fun version of Tuesday's State of the Union address. Three YouTube stars will be grilling the president, and they're not exactly known for their hard-hitting insight into domestic affairs.

The interviewers will be GloZell Green, who's perhaps best known for sitting in a tub full of cereal; a 19-year-old who gives beauty advice named Bethany Mota; and Hank Green, a notorious YouTube ranter whose brother wrote The Fault in Our Stars.
