Michelle Obama showed off a stack of new piercings—and revealed that it took former President Barack Obama several days to notice her sparkly new additions. “In one sitting, I got 10 piercings,” the former first lady, 62, said during a Q&A segment of her podcast, IMO, which she hosts with her older brother, Craig Robinson, 63. The news came after a listener asked, “What is one thing you’ve learned about the other from doing the podcast and working together?” “What I’ve learned,” Robinson began his answer, looking at Michelle, “is that you tried to get your ears pierced and thought...

On Wednesday’s episode of her podcast, “IMO,” which she shares with brother Craig Robinson, the latter poked fun at his sister’s new jewelry additions. “What I’ve learned about you [since starting the podcast] is that you tried to get your ears pierced and thought I didn’t notice,” to which he added, “And I see you got all these new piercings in your ear.” The former first lady revealed, “I have always thought about getting some extra piercings in my ear and just never got around to it.” She admitted that she did try out a second earring before she had...

Ah, yes, the weekend kicked off with the press and social media (the two growing more indistinguishable by the day) worked up into a lather over the fact that the president’s Truth Social account posted a “racist” video, portraying former President Barack Obama and the former first lady as animated apes. This serves as all the injection needed of political adrenaline for the braying resistance members to turn into howler monkeys, to keep with the primate theme. As is always the case, there is more to the story, but that will be intentionally overlooked by those agents of agitprop and...

Donald Trump told reporters he will not apologize for the racist video he shared depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes. The president spoke publicly for the first time since the video was released - to outrage from both Democrats and Republicans - on Air Force One Friday night and maintained he did nothing wrong. 'I looked at it. I didn’t see the whole thing. I gave it to the people, they posted it,' said Trump, noting he 'didn't see' the part where the Obamas were imposed on the bodies of apes. 'What I saw in the beginning was really...

Television personality Sage Steele is back in the hot seat after telling former first lady Michelle Obama to “shut up” about Black women’s hair struggles. The former ESPN anchor addressed the former first lady on her Actual Friends podcast, criticizing remarks Michelle Obama made in November about Black women's hair and the pressure many feel to straighten it due to Eurocentric beauty standards.

Michelle Obama joined the sex and dating podcast “Call Her Daddy” to criticize society’s fixation on women’s appearances while promoting her new book, “The Look,” which explores her outfits as the former first lady. Without a hint of irony, Obama told podcast host Alex Cooper that she wished the press focused less on what she wore and more on her education and professional background. “The top of the article would be ‘she was wearing…’” Obama lamented. “Not my education, not my professional career.” Cooper agreed with Obama, though both women seemed to forget that the interview had opened with, “Talk...

Former First Lady Michelle Obama has urged people to be “mindful” when buying from white-owned clothing brands. During a recent interview clip circulating on social media, Obama says she actively tries to buy clothes from people of “color” in order to “make it a point.” Last year, she claimed that Americans did not show her and her family “grace” because of their skin color, despite the fact her husband was elected in a landslide.

First off, I don't trust *anything* the Democrat media says. But why would they keep hiding and lying about Michelle Obama actually being a gay/"trans" male, if it were so? Wouldn't they be out, loud, and proud with it by now? Wouldn't they have gone on Oprah and boasted how "brave" our "first transgender first lady" is? Michelle actually being Michael just sounds like something the modern, reprobate minded Democrat party would be extremely open and boastful about.

Rob Reiner did for Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) what Ray Kroc did for hamburgers, what Henry Ford did for the automobile, and what Genghis Khan may have done for sexually transmitted diseases; he brought it to the masses. Reiner's tweets weren't informative, clever, or funny; they were over-the-top insulting and, more importantly, accusatory, so much so that an acne-besotted incel from Butler, Penn., might want to take a shot at Trump. FACT-O-RAMA! Though other Hollywood celebrities have tried (looking at you, Robert DeNiro), no one has attacked Trump as frequently — or as loopily — as Reiner. Take a peek...

Stephen A. Smith is pushing back on former first lady Michelle Obama's suggestion that Americans are "not ready" to elect a woman to the White House. On Monday's episode of "Straight Shooter," host Smith pointed to the newly elected governor-elects Mikie Sherrill, D-N.J., and Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., as proof that Americans are willing to vote for female leaders, as well as noting that Gov. Kathy Hochul, D-N.Y., won her election and that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in the 2016 presidential election. "Didn't we just see an election take place last month where a woman...

Michelle Obama asserts that when she was a kid, whites routinely kiIIed black kids for wearing the wrong clothing.

I’m probably in a minority of one, but I’ve concluded that Michelle Obama is a pitiable woman because she is incapable of happiness. Mind you, she’s not a harmless woman, because she uses her bully pulpit to spread her misery by making other people, especially women and minorities, equally dissatisfied, paranoid, and hate-filled, but there’s still something pathetic about a woman who has everything yet still sees herself as the victim. Michelle’s latest rant was about hair. (snip) But for Michelle—because she’s a leftist and the personal is always political—the fact that the current style is for lustrous straight hair...

WASHINGTON (AP) — On any day during her eight years as first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama said she could go from giving a speech to meeting with a counterpart from another country to digging in her vegetable garden with groups of schoolchildren. And her clothes had to be ready for that. There was too much else to do, including raising daughters Sasha and Malia, and she said she did not have time to obsess over what she was wearing. “I was concerned about, ‘Can I hug somebody in it? Will it get dirty?’” she said Wednesday night...

Michelle Obama has outdone herself. While Americans are caught in the middle of a government shutdown worrying whether their SNAP benefits will arrive and if they can put food on the table, the former First Lady took to a podcast with Jamie Kern Lima to promote her new book and complain about how hard her life was in the White House, with people waiting on her hand and foot. (snip) During her conversation with Lima, Obama had the audacity to describe her “glam team” as not as a luxury, but as a necessity. Instead of acknowledging what an incredible privilege...

Michelle Obama really wants you to know she's a victim. That's been the theme for her over the last several years, whether it be during interviews or on her incredibly grating podcast. Most recently, speaking to ABC News "journalist" Gayle King, who is always chosen for these softball sessions for a reason, the former First Lady decried her time in the White House, claiming she and her family were given a "lack of grace" that other presidential families received. KING: "We were all too aware that as the first black couple, we couldn't afford any mistakes." And you also say...

Former first lady Michelle Obama on Tuesday said women need to stand up against those who might seek to silence them. In an interview with People magazine, Obama reflected on her life and explained how she embraced entering her 60s. She talked about how her father raised her to be proud of her height. “I’m still working on, every day, waking up, looking in the mirror and telling myself that I am smart and beautiful, and kind and worthy,” Obama said. “I don’t think that work ever stops for women, particularly women of color, because sometimes you don’t always hear...

Barack Obama revealed he has been 'digging himself out of a hole' with his wife Michelle after his political career dominated their family life at the White House. The former president was being interviewed by historian David Olusoga in London last night when he was asked what he had been doing for the past few years. 'I was digging myself out of the hole I found myself with Michelle,' Mr Obama told an audience at The O2 Arena. 'Now I'm at about level ground.'

Barack and Michelle Obama have put on a rare show of unity by jetting off on a lavish getaway together - after months of swirling speculation about their marriage. The couple seemed to put the ongoing divorce rumors to rest as they soaked up the sun in Portofino, Italy, aboard their pal Steven Spielberg's $250 million superyacht over the weekend. The pair notably arrived separate from one another, however, with photographers catching a solo Michelle, 61, getting onto the luxurious, 357-foot boat via a tender ahead of her husband. She donned some baggy jeans, a matching denim button-down top, with...

Former First Lady Michelle Obama weighed in on the rivalry between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese during a recent interview. “I think the tough thing is the social media element to it, but that’s true across the board,” Obama said Thursday via All The Smoke. “I mean, we’ve talked about this on our show. It just, you know, it just takes a normal occurrence. You know these young kids today, what they have to go through, what they have to be able to withstand because social media is such a huge part of their world.” Obama seemed to suggest that...

Black vacationers on Martha’s Vineyard often describe visiting the island in August as a kind of family reunion. If your family happens to include Michelle Obama, that is. “This is a special place for us, because, as you all know, this is where we come to enjoy being us,” Ms. Obama said Saturday afternoon at the Martha’s Vineyard African American Film Festival, where she joined her older brother, Craig Robinson, for a live recording of their podcast, “IMO,” which she likened to a kitchen table. The brother-sister duo were speaking with the actress Natasha Rothwell, whom they repeatedly referred to...
