The American President Barack Obama will trade the jokers in Washington for another funnyman next Tuesday.

The commander-in-chief will make his maiden appearance on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" on April 24, NBC said Friday. The episode will be taped earlier in the day at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Fallon's house band The Roots will also be on hand for the taping.Dave Matthews will be the musical guest. No word on whether Obama plans to bust out his considerable vocal skills for the performance. There's also no word if The Roots will attempt an encoded message in their song choices, as they infamously did with fellow political guest Michele Bachmann.

Obama's appearance on "Fallon" follows his wife Michelle's guest spot on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" in January.

Former president of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf also appeared on one of America's TV shows known as "The Daily Show with John Stewart" promoting his book "In The Line Of Fire".
