As former first lady Michelle Obama tells it, it’s not easy being married to a famous man, describing people "spilling water" on her while trying to reach her husband.
Both Obama and her guest, OB-GYN Dr. Sharon Malone, who joined the podcast that Obama co-hosts with her brother, "IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson," discussed the challenges of being married to famous men on Wednesday.
Malone’s husband is former Attorney General Eric Holder, who was the 82nd attorney general of the United States from 2009 to 2015 under former President Barack Obama.
Michelle Obama recounted the first time she met Malone during an event.
"They put us together because we were both reluctant spouses attending one of these huge dinners," Obama said. "And what, where were they… was Barack a U.S. senator?"
"Yes, he was a senator because you, you were still living in Chicago and Eric was in private practice," Malone said. "So it was just it was very early days."
Michelle Obama said the experience was overwhelming.
"There was a line of people waiting to shake hands with our respective husbands," she said. "You know, people, like, reaching over our heads and spilling water on us, trying to get to these two, you know, illustrious men."
Obama said that she saw Malone across the table and felt a kindred spirit, saying, "She had the same look on her face as I did, like, ‘Here we go.’"
She added that they exchanged a look that said, "You see this? Like, this is crazy, isn't it, girl?" They soon became friends.

Well said.
I’ll use an emoji for my estimation of the two:
💩💩
Neither one would have been much except having married a celebrity.
They think standing next to a man who is famous and powerful means they are, too. Hillary did that and built on it with special privileges and advantages from people trying to get favors from Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton or the President. Went to her (ugly) head.
I won’t bother to bring up Jill Biden. Oops, I just did.
Great post.
You are too generous :)
She's kinda like acid reflux, except not as tasty.
I’d lay my head on the railroad tracks
And wait for the Double “E”
But the railroad don’t run no more
Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me
Poor, poor pitiful me
These young girls won’t let me be
Lord have mercy on me
Woe is me

Yeah, Barack ought to know, right?
.
Just imagine for a moment where Michelle would be if it weren’t for Obama, nowheresville. Same locale as Hillary.
Obama and Holder created the corrupt government we’re now fighting.
The Mooch had a podcast available to millions. On her best night, she had, what? 16 listeners?
Nobody cares.
Then don’t marry soy boys.
