Michelle and Barack Obama meet with Steven Spielberg for Hollywood elite dinner at Tom Hanks’ $26M mansion

MICHELLE and Barack Obama enjoyed a swanky dinner with Steven Spielberg, Bruce Springsteen, and other Hollywood elites at Tom Hanks’ $26million mansion.

The former US leader and first lady were spotted in Pacific Palisades on Sunday night, where the Secret Service took over the neighborhood to accommodate the A-listers' evening.

Located in a cul de sac, Hanks' home was the perfect location for a lowkey but glitzy dinner after Tom and Rita celebrated their 33rd wedding anniversary on Friday.

The White House-turned-Tinseltown power couple was spotted sitting in a black car and staring intently at their phones as they left the Hanks home after partying with the likes of Steven Spielberg.

The ET director was in attendance with his wife Kate Capshaw, while "The Boss" Springsteen and his wife Patti also pulled up to mark Tom and Rita's landmark celebration.

The four famous couples met up at around 7pm but stayed on at the party well after midnight and leaving in their six-car motorcade.

After celebrating with their famous pals, Barack played around on his Tablet, while Michelle - decked out in a gold sequined dress - seemed to read emails on her phone.

Meanwhile, Capshaw drove herself and billionaire Spielberg home in their Land Rover, while the Springsteens were driven home.

How white supremacist of them. Absolutely had it with Speilberg and Hanks, thought they were cool dudes supporting the vets but nope, like all the other creeps in Hollywood they have to side with Marxism. F them.

Just like the higher ups in the Communist Party did while every else starved.

I think it refers to “a-holes”. You have the regular a-hole, the mega- a-hole and then the elite a-hole

Overheard Hanks say when Big Mike lumbered and in...

“We’re going to need a bigger gravy boat”

>>partying with the likes of Steven Spielberg

What does PARTYING with Steven Spielberg entail?

Is he know for his party lifestyle (or at least since the 80s ended)?

Pacific Palisades is a little better than Beverly Hills but it’s not Hawaii.

Things you never expect to see later:

The one rowing, in a gold sequined dress.

Maybe it was $26 million when they bought it. But it actually is a "fairly standard" price tag for a mansion in that area - Brentwood, Palisades etc. OJ Simpson's Brentwood home sold for $12 million but that was quite a while ago.

Meanwhile, Denzel lives in style. I think he lives in a new-ish development above Bel Air - not too far from those other areas just on the opposite site of the 405 freeway. Way up in a newer development, all gated, all homes built for people who will drop $50 mil plus on a house.

This is the Spelling Mansion (built by late Aaron Spelling creator of many TV shows). Sold for $120 million. It's like 2 doors down from the Playboy Mansion which sold for $100 million. But the Spelling Mansion is 40+ years newer construction and way more lavish, just without the Playboy brand mystique:

Tom and Rita could probably afford either of those imo, but really what's the point? They have both done well in their careers and have future income too, but do you really need a 40 room house to raise a family? Probably $500,000 a month in maintenance, landscaping, service staff etc... and PROPERTY TAXES! I'm sure their $26M crib is done to the nines, and they get to see their family every day instead of everyone hiding out in their own wings of the house and you need a golf cart to get from the bedroom to the pool and an intercom system to speak to anyone. And, you can get a coastal breeze and scent of ocean salt in the air in the Palisades/Brentwood area you won't get in Beverly Hills, Bel Air or Holmby Hills.

Of course some of these giant homes probably have an "office wing" where various meetings and pitches and personal assistants congregate and produce shows... so they can get some write offs.

Yeah, homobama classed the place up for sure.

More likely, he gassed up the place. Class? He can't even spell it.
