she is holding up through all this bullshit. I worry about her. I'm sure she knew what a shitstorm things were likely to be for the first African-American 1st family. She seems more the realist; Pres O the idealist.

beauty, brains, class, dignity, success, beloved by the public - just more reason for the right to hate Pres O!

Green monster (jealousy). They are such scags.

I love her!!!!!!

I am sad to see how airbrushed these pictures are. I would rather see her
natural beauty untarnished by manipulation.

I doubt she was consulted about it. They just assume that letting people look like their normal selves won't sell their magazine.

I love Michelle and I will continue to love her when she's old.

She's will be remembered as a wonderful First Lady: doing all the things a 'First Lady' is expected to do, and very well.
In the not too distant future we'll be seeing that highly educated, smart and unabashed woman who (I wager) is just itching for a chance to become a real force in her own right.
Michelle, we hardly know you yet!
Almost makes me wish the Second Term would end sooner.

Those who spew the ugly rhetoric about her are, IMHO, just plain jealous. Watch out for that Green Eyed Monster, you miserable short-sighted RWers. It can come back to bite ya!

Blessings to Michelle and her awesome family. Now I'm gonna go run buy me a copy of the LHJ with her on the cover! One to cherish, that's for sure!

Cheers!

is that the haters seem disappointed that she isn't some nappy-haired ghetto hag with a lot of tats and old pierces.

She's amazing.

she is hands down the hottest sexiest woman to ever be first lady. and one of the hottest sexiest women around today, period.

now having said that, her incredible intelligence, and personality are all part of the sexy hotness.

Respectfully, I wish she would leave a little texture in her hair, and I say this as a old white hippy chick who pays $200. to perm some kink into my hair.
