As part of the Let’s Move! initiative, Jimmy visits the White House to compete in a fitness competition with Michelle Obama.
“He does have a beautiful voice, and he sings to me all the time. … He doesn’t hesitate to show off his lungs to his wife,” she said. “He sings that song. That’s why I knew when people said he sang, I thought, ‘I’ll bet he sang Al Green.’”
But daughters Malia and Sasha aren’t so impressed. “Anything we do is highly embarrassing,” Obama said. “They just want us to be very quiet.”

Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.) - FishbowlDC
“Now I’m sure you realize why I don’t like to follow Michelle Obama. She’s pretty good. And it is true, I am a little biased but let me just say it, Michelle, you are a remarkable first lady. You are a great advocate for military families. And you’re cute! I’m just saying. Gentlemen, that’s your goal, to marry up. Punch above your weight.” - President Obama, speaking to U.S. troops at Fort. Bragg.
“So this is how you tweet, huh?” - Michelle Obama
Our First Lady is now on Twitter. The White House released this short clip of Michelle Obama tweeting from her new twitter account @JoiningForces.

“I do that more frequently than people realize,” she said. “It’s amazing how people don’t recognize you. They don’t expect to see me at Starbucks or Chipotle. I took Bo to Petco. The cashier asked me, ‘Oh, what kind of dog is that?’ I said, ‘A Portuguese water dog.’ He didn’t recognize us because he didn’t expect that we would be in Petco.”
On the Today show yesterday, Al Roker asked Michelle Obama about her recent incognito trip to Target, and whether she missed the ability to duck out and run errands without attracting a press gaggle.
She also said she slipped into a Baskin-Robbins without attracting notice. - The Atlantic Wire

On Tuesday, the First Lady led hundreds of school children in a solid minute of jumping jacks on the South Lawn. The event kicked off a 24-hour chase after a Guinness World Record—and served as a reminder of how adorably uncoordinated we all are as young people.

“You have restored in me my faith in America.”

Hmmm, that sounds familiar, like something the FLOTUS once said and was maligned for by the GOP.
