The hidden reason why Michelle Obama might be showing skin on the cover of her memoir
Yahoo News ^ | 5/24/2018 | Lauren Tuck

The official cover for Michelle Obama’s memoir has been released.(snip)

In the photo, Obama is smiling with her right hand resting underneath her chin. She wears a simple white T-shirt that’s pulled off of one shoulder and hoop earrings. Her hair is blown out in loose waves and her skin is glowing.

According to Obama’s stylist Meredith Koop, she started with the idea of jeans and a T-shirt and wanting to portray her as all-American, relatable, and real. “It’s what Michelle wears as Michelle, not First Lady Michelle Obama. I wanted the modern ease of a tee mixed with the regal drapery of a toga. A little pinch of post-White House edge with that sexy shoulder, the tee falling off. No fancy designers, no distractions, just Ms. M herself, up close and personal,” Koop revealed.

The fact that she’s so obviously showing skin could have a hidden meaning. In 2009, after the White House released her first official photo as FLOTUS, people criticized the fact that she was wearing a sleeveless dress and showing off her toned arms. In the years following, she continued to make similar style statements despite the critics by wearing strapless gowns and off-the-shoulder dresses.

Commenters can’t wait to get their hands on the memoir and think the cover photo is “elegant,” “gorgeous,” “inspiring,” and “beautiful.”

In the lead-up to the cover debut, Obama has been sharing personal photos and stories that are in the book, including a picture from her wedding night.

Right that is an Oprah pose plus Mooch is trying to look as feminine as she can...which isn’t much.

No way would Mooch dress like this unless it is to sell maximum number of books to whites. Blacks will buy it anyway.

Perhaps an enterprising conservative can open a “Big Mike” museum in a small lease space right down the street from the new Obama presidential museum.

An air-sick bag next to her is oozes a thick, unidentified fluid ... with chunks. I call it "Still Life with Barf. And An Airsick Bag."

He cracked some lame joke, but what grabbed my attention was that not only does she have her elbow on the table, but she is still chewing and already has another shovelful of grub in her hand, waiting to be shoved into her maw.

I believe that's called damning with faint praise...

One reason she is showing skin

She is a wide shouldered woman. By twisting her body and having the shirt do a V it thins out her presentation and makes it visually interesting.

Well, the quality of your post informs the quality of YOUR “investigation”.

Since you seem to think YOU are the expert critic of others who want to verify a matter, maybe you should pay closer attention to your own work.

Years ago before Barry was elected and maybe running for office, Oprah had both of them on her show. I really had no idea who the Obamas were but I can tell you she was UGLY! She wasn’t made up and had her REAl hair and she was seriously an unattractive woman? It’s amazing what a good makeup artist, good lighting, clothes and a hairstylist can do for the homeliest women out there. Have you ever seen Eva Longoria without makeup? Whew!

With all the tax money they’ve skimmed off into their off shore accounts, she can afford a new t-shirt or ten.

I want to see an investigation to see how much out of the pallet of cash sent to Iran went to an offshore account in Barrack and Michelle's name.
