President Barack Obama gives the Queen an iPod

But imagine his embarrassment when he found out she already had one...

President Barack Obama gave the Queen Of England a gift of an iPod during his visit to the UK this week.

Obama, in the country for today's G20 conference met the Queen yesterday (April 1) at Buckingham Palace and presented her with the gift, which was loaded with video footage and photographs of her 2007 US visit to Richmond, Jamestown and Williamsburg in Virginia.

According to the Daily Telegraph, the Queen gave the President a silver-framed signed photograph of herself and the Duke of Edinburgh, which is apparently a standard present for visiting dignitaries.

It is believed that the Queen already owns an 6GB silver iPod Mini that she bought in 2005 at the suggestion of Prince Andrew.

Obama had earlier spoke of his admiration for the monarch at his joint press conference with Gordon Brown.

"There's one last that I should mention that I love about Great Britain, and that is the Queen," he said. "And so I'm very much looking forward to meeting her for the first time later this evening. And as you might imagine, Michelle has been really thinking that through – because I think in the imagination of people throughout America, I think what the Queen stands for and her decency and her civility, what she represents, that's very important."

Suggest what you think the Queen should put on her new iPod in the comments box below.

6gb full of God Save the Queen by the Sex Pistols. That's what I would have loaded onto it for her.

apart from the obvious, 'Killer Queen, 'God Save The Queen', 'The Queen is Dead' (!), i'd suggest a healthy selection of Selfish Cunt, Fucked Up, Fuck Shovel, and LMFAO. Gallows would too be suitable for Her Majesty .A bit of Village People and Wham as well - she'd like that .

Sex Pistols- God save the queen. Obviously. Its got to be on there. Or if she wants something to go to sleep to then just wack a bit of recent U2 in there. Maybe a little bit of Shameless to remind her what our countries coming to. Maybe something to influence a public stoning of Gordon Brown.
