Celebs Are Losing Their Minds Over the Chicago Cubs World Series Win
Recommended for you
It may have taken 108 years, but the Chicago Cubs have finally won the World Series once again. Woo! As fans sat through a nail-biting game seven — which ended up in tie-breaking extra innings — Chicago and Cleveland battled it out in what will go down as one of the most epic games in baseball history. And while folks across the country were freaking rightout and celebrating hard, celebs were absolutely losing their minds over the history-making win.
The stars were quick to jump onto Twitter and Instagram to share their reactions.
President Obama had a pretty awesome invitation for the team…
It happened: @Cubs win World Series. That's change even this South Sider can believe in. Want to come to the White House before I leave?

And Michelle had some sincere words as well…
Go @Cubs, go! Been rooting for you since I was a kid, and so incredibly proud tonight. #FlytheW -mo

Hillary Clinton was totally overjoyed…
