Michelle Obama is revealing what it's like for Christmas with the former first family. The New York Times best-selling author will appear on "The Jennifer Hudson Show" for an exclusive interview on Tuesday, December 17. In a sneak peek clip, the former first lady opened up about the holidays in Hawaii, who the hardest person is to shop for in the family, and more.
The Obama family loves to visit Hawaii for Christmas, which is where Barack Obama is from. Michelle, who recently opened up about her fears, quipped during the interview, "You know my husband grew up in Hawaii—one of the reasons why I married him. My in-laws, I was like, ‘Okay, is this where Christmas is going to be?’"
Barack and Michelle share Malia, 26, and Sasha Obama, 23, and their bond is undeniable, never missing a holiday together. "We do Thanksgiving with my family, but for Christmas, since the girls were little, we’ve been going to Hawaii," the 60-year-old explained. "His family is there, and now it’s his sister, my nieces, and a bunch of friends who’ve been joining us for years. We head to the island for a little sun," she explained.
Sharing some advice on how to pick the right partner, the author added, "That's why you got to pick your husband right ... he got a lot cuter when I found out he was from Hawaii, I was like, 'oh okay."
When Hudson asked who the hardest person to shop for is, she quickly said, "He is." "I mean, he just doesn't do much. He golfs, and there's only so many golf balls you can get a dude," she explained. "I already got the clubs - I can't get him another golf shirt. He's really hard, and he doesn't want anything."
Michelle said a nice letter would be enough for the former President, adding that he's "cheap." "I'm trying to get him clothes that he wouldn't buy, you know 'cause he's also cheap," she said.
She gave an example about a nice jacket, saying she tried to hide the price, which made Barack ask, "Why'd you spend this much on a jacket?" "I was like, 'That's what a gift is," Michelle continued.
While Barack is hard to shop for, Michelle still credits herself as the best gift giver because she is "actually paying attention to everyone" and listening. "I'm the one who organizes all the gift-giving. I make sure that all the kids we know are covered, I've got my list... I'm the one that makes Christmas happen," she said proudly.
How 'old money' of her.
I thought she or he said they don’t give their kids Christmas presents.
Obama has a sister? Eight years as president and I never heard that mentioned.
I lean more towards useless. Might just be me and how I see these phony assclowns.
Haus Frau stuff, about their ‘struggles’.
Moochelle could gift Barry a round of 18 holes at each Trump golf course in the world.
She’s one of those obnoxious women who puts down her husband to make herself more important. When she goes low, her ego gets high.
All black women think their husbands are cheap. It’s pretty much a written law. They usually preface that with, “No Good, and Lazy A$$” That’s the origin of that “a black woman needs to keep plenty of cash under her mattress” thing. (Fanny Willis)
Not going to be too much "heading to the island for a little sun" without plenty of dinero, at least in the reality I inhabit. Especially if "the island" in question happens to be one of the Hawaiian islands.
BTW that particular speech seems to have been scrubbed from the internet.
Have you tried getting him the video box-set of The Muslim Call to Prayer Around the World?
I'm sure he'd love it.
Pfffft. Obviously to rid oneself of that pasty pallor we all get in the winter
How is the chef’s family that “drowned” on their property these days?
Whad he say?
The Obamas going to Hawaii to visit his sister for Christmas was mentioned in his first or second term. She seems to prefer anonymity. I’ve never seen her interviewed that I can recall.
A ‘woman’ with the largest traps I have ever seen.
remember when grandma died shortly after his visit, along with the lady in charge of his fake birth certificate?
And let’s not forget grandma obama that is on tape saying he was born in kenya. But she’s black, so the leftists say her word doesn’t count.
,,, someone sort out a Gulbenkian prize for this self worshipper.
Obama never talked about his squeeze, Big Mike either. There was never a word of truth out of Barry or his tranny beard.
