President Barack Obama had some explaining to do.

The commander in chief arrived at the East Room for an event Tuesday night honoring Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders—one of whom had shown him some love.

There to speak of their contributions, he began his remarks by discussing a very red mark on his collar left by an attendee.

"I want to thank everybody who’s here—the incredible warmth of the reception. A sign of the warmth is the lipstick on my collar," Obama said to laughter.

"I do not want to be in trouble with Michelle," Obama said, "so I'm calling you out."
