[mom4melody]

You mean she’s mad this became public?

[agere_contra]

Total fabrication.

It was $48000, tops.

Same here. True, or not, the real problem is that it's plausible.

So what will the story be when Agent Provocateur shows up with the receipt?
The IRS can't be sicced on 'em to stop 'em from doing so as they're a British company.

I’m sure that when Michelle Obama enters a store, the Secret Service freely allows people to enter or leave the store.

Wonder how many dollars Kristina Schake is paid tell lies on behalf of Michelle.

The denial is very likely completely accurate. She did not spend exactly $50,000.

Was the bill more or less, that is the key question?

[philman_36]

'Along with the the Queen of Qatar, Sheikha Mozah, she closed off part of Madison Avenue to spend time in the luxury lingerie shop.'
And despite the claim that...'Agent Provocateur never discusses any of its clientele or their purchases.'
...Agent Provocateur isn't denying that Sheikha Mozah was shopping there or that she was a customer.

I don't know about this store but NYC has plenty of clothing stores, which cater to wealthy clientele, that operate by appointment only.

Every time a member of a White House family shops in Manhattan, the nearby streets are shut. I don’t know if she shopped at that joint, but if she did, there is no question the cops closed off Madison Ave.

[philman_36]

The London paparazzi weren't there to record this for prosperity?

Paparazzi snap Pippa Middleton up to 400 times a day
Amazing!

It sounds like it is something that is so embarrassing to her that she is sending out her minions to lie about it.

Alas! I didn't think the women had enough civility to be embarrassed about anything. It is a hint of conscience in the women... albeit, it seems to make her go the lying route to cover up for what she did. she is shameful.

Looking for stick to gouge out mind’s eye ...

The Mad Mooch is angry again!

[noiseman]

The mere mention of Michelle Obama and lingerie in the same sentence is enough to cause one to lose their lunch. And the cost of a replacement lunch just keeps going higher in the Obama economy.

[abigailsmybaby]

This story is 100% false

Yeah, it was a $500,000 shopping spree. You missed a 0.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

What a waste. $50,000 lingerie still won’t get a rise out of her swishy husband.

[colorado tanker]

I went to their website. That is some seriously expensive underwear.
