The hidden reason why Michelle Obama might be showing skin on the cover of her memoir

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.

"Her hair is blown out in loose waves..."

I could've sworn it said "weaves", the first time I read it.

Is she admitting to “becoming” something she wasn’t at one time?

Hmmm, maybe being away form the WH has done her some good.

In the WH, she looked like a really pissed off man dressed as a woman.

Cultural appropriations.

That’s a Oprah pose if I’ve ever seen one.

Looks like she’s deeply into cultural appropriation.

There is a very good reason for that.

Her Cover Photos will become progressively bare, until her fourth book, when Michelle will appear with no top at all.
A large fan made of Ostrich feathers will shield her modesty.

You really think Barack married a transvestite? There’s a lot of weirdness surrounding BO, but after my own investigation, that seems a stretch to me.

She’s always looked, dressed and acted like a middle linebacker in drag in my opinion.....
