Michelle Obama Covers VOGUE

First Lady Michelle Obama lands her second cover of VOGUE, with her and Barack discussing the details of their relationship. In the issue, Barack discusses how Michelle pulled his life together while they were dating.

“I had this little bachelor apartment that Michelle refused to stay in because she thought it was a little, uh . . . you know, pizza boxes everywhere,” President Obama says. “When she came, I had to get her a hotel room.”

The first lady chimed in, “That place caught on fire.”

“And what Michelle has done is to remind me every day of the virtues of order,” the chief executive said. “Being on time. Hanging up your clothes. Being intentional about planning time with your kids.” He added, “We’re very different people, and some of that’s temperamental, some of it is how we grew up.

An evening with the first family is much like any other dinner-table gathering across America, Michelle insisted. “Ninety percent of our conversation is about these girls: What are they doing? And who’s got what practice? And what birthday party is coming up? And did we get a gift for this person?” the first lady said.

President Obama admitted that he benefited politically coming into the public’s eye as a young parent. He and Michelle looked like any other husband and wife struggling to make ends meet: “We had to figure out how to make a mortgage, payin’ the bills, goin’ to Target, and freakin’ out when . . . the woman who’s looking after your girls while Michelle’s working suddenly decides she’s quittin’.”

Aren’t they just Black America’s favorite Aunt and Uncle? The April issue of Vogue hits stands March 26.
