George H.W. Bush sat down with his granddaughter, Jenna Bush Hager, to commemorate the former president’s 88th birthday on Tuesday’s “Today Show.”

The conversation naturally turned to flashy socks… and Justin Bieber.

Really.

It turns out President Bush is a  ”sock man.”

“I like a colorful sock,” he tells Hager, showing off the relatively “modest pair” he wore to the interview.

Hager then points out that people have been comparing Bush’s socks to Bieber’s.

“Bieb… is he a sock man?” wonders the former President. “I don’t know much about the Bieber.”

When Hager asks if her grandfather knows Bieber’s music and sings a few notes of “Baby,” the elder Bush is unimpressed.

Bush responds, “Is that his song? I don’t think I’d like it.”

Oh, snap!

Maybe he’s more of a One Direction guy?
