Michelle Obama Wishes She Was Beyonce
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Features,
The First Lady of the United States says that if she wasn't heading the White House in Washington D.C with American President Barack Obama, she would love to be a music artist.
"Gosh, if I had some gift, I'd be Beyonce. I'd be some great singer," she told People.
Michelle made the claim in a new interview with the magazine when asked if there was any celebrity or world figure with whom she'd switch lives: "The power of music, being able to play an instrument... It looks like musicians just have the most fun."
Her complimentary comments come over a month after Beyonce published a note praising the mother of Malia and Sasha. The "Love On Top" singer described her as a role model for her daughter with Jay-Z, Blue Ivy Carter, and said the politician's wife is "the ultimate example of a truly strong African-American woman."

Michelle Obama, Lady Gaga Top Most Powerful Women List
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television,
Pop singers Lady Gaga and Beyonce Knowles have been named in the top ten of the 2010 Forbes Most Powerful Women In The World list.
The pop stars - who collaborated on the single “Telephone” - came seventh and ninth, respectively, joining a host of political leaders including US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton and German Chancellor Angela Merkel in the poll. American First Lady Michelle Obama - the wife of US President Barack Obama - took the number one spot.
“The women on our list, through their respective realms of power and influence, are shaping many of the agenda setting conversations of our day. They have built companies and brands, sometimes by non-traditional means, and they have broken through gender barriers in areas of commerce, politics, sports and media and cultural zeitgeist, and thereby affecting the lives of millions, sometimes billions of people,” said publisher of ForbesWoman, Moira Forbes.
Other entertainers on the list include talk show hosts Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres, who came third and tenth respectively. Check out the complete list after the jump!

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Hair Styles,
Another presidential press conference? Who cares? What the media really cares about is Michelle Obama‘s new look!
Last night at a country music celebration, the First Lady was easily the most talked about celebrity in the room. Obama arrived at the White House event in a Michael Kors dress…and a much shorter hairstyle.
Although most assumed Michelle had trimmed her locks, her press secretary revealed the truth. “It’s an updo. Not haircut,” Semonti Mustaphi told InStyle.
What did you think of her temporary look? Should she make the change permanent?

Had Hillary Clinton won the Democratic nomination, there’s a chance we would be talking about a demand on pantsuits right now. (Probably not, but it’s possible.) But since she wasn’t, the fashion focus has now been placed on the other females currently in the political spotlight.
Ever since Sarah Palin’s appearances at the Republic National Convention, interest in the candidate’s $375 glasses have reportedly quadrupled. According to Italee Optics Inc., the manufacturer is now having to produce the eyewear around the clock.
This news comes months after Michelle Obama appeared on The View in another must-have piece. Once it was revealed that her black-and-white dress was an off the rack item purchased at White House Black Market, the retailer was flooded with calls for the $148 garment.
