Former President Barack Obama went gaga for Michelle Obama’s official portrait Monday — thanking the artist for capturing the former first lady’s “hotness.”

“Amy, I want to thank you for so spectacularly capturing the grace and beauty and the intelligence and charm and hotness of the woman that I love,” the permanently smitten Obama said, The Hill reported.

**Ever hear of Kehinde Wiley? He's the guy who painted the #obamaportrait. Here he is with another one of his works: a black woman beheading a white woman for no reason. This is art? No, a better question is why was this 'artist' chosen to paint a presidential portrait?**

At least zero’s portrait looks like him. The Mooch’s portrait doesn’t look like him. And what the heck is Mooch wearing to the unvailing? The drapes from a hearse?

I think this shows us that God has a very good sense of humor.

The beheader looks more like Moochelle than does the official portrait.

Isn’t hair straightening cultural appropriation?

These are pop art portraits. Setting aside my political distaste for the Obamas. Three things come to mind:

1) As pop art, I don’t think that these portraits will age well. Generations from now, art students will scratch their heads and wonder what were they thinking.

2) Neither picture is particularly complimentary for the subject. Mr. Obama is engulfed in the plants and Mrs. Obama is overwhelmed by her gown.

3) I am relieved that this crap was privately funded.

Interesting to know the back story of the artist [using the term loosely]

Ever hear of Kehinde Wiley? He's the guy who painted the #obamaportrait. Here he is with another one of his works: a black woman beheading a white woman for no reason. This is art? No, a better question is why was this 'artist' chosen to paint a presidential portrait?

Yes, I know about the artist. One reason he was chosen is because he and Obama are kindred spirits.

Every thread that is about Obama’s portrait must include the artists racist paintings to illustrate the real nature of Barack Obama.

Clinton’s was bad enough but Obama’s is just tacky and undignified. It suits him.
