Jan 17 2016 - 11:20am

When you meet a presidential candidate, the first thing you should ask for is a selfie, right? On an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Hillary Clinton revealed this was exactly Kim Kardashian's request when the two met during a fundraising event in Los Angeles.

"First of all, she was very nice and of course when she says to me, 'Can we take a selfie?' I said, 'Hello, of course.' I mean that's like an obvious answer," Hillary said. "She takes out her phone and she presses the button — I've never seen this anywhere else . . . She pulls it out, it has lights all the way around it, like, little tiny, tiny lightbulbs."

Here is the full clip:

Though the Democratic candidate may have just accidentally revealed Kim's secret to amazing selfies, the reality star quickly took to Twitter to give Hillary a shout-out. And more importantly, she shared with Hillary and fans that the device she uses is called LuMee [1], a smartphone case that lights up.

Genius? Yes! Because there's nothing like bad lighting to ruin a potentially good selfie.
