@katiecouric: Michelle Obama

Katie Couric interviewed First Lady Michelle Obama for Glamour's Women of the Year issue. Topics they talk about include the importance of role models and mentoring and her biggest surprise as First Lady.

[@chiegb4470]

What a magnificent woman! I never saw this interview with Katie Couric- What a brilliant mind Mrs Obama has! No trite, cookie-cutter answers or platitudes à la most public figures. Mrs Obama's answers were thoughtful, sincere, genuine, insightful, inspiring and uniquely and authentically hers. She's superb!

[@davidmckibben1931]

13 years ago before that's really newsworthy

[@davidmckibben1931]

What is so Magnificent about him

[@AdvertChild98]

She's absolutely a truly beautiful woman! I think the Americans are very lucky to have this intelligent and kind lady to be the First Lady. Thank you Ms. Coutric for conducting this sweet and happy interview. :)

[@bboicrazy8]

That awesome of the best relationship advice at the end. What a well spoken woman of class, intellect, and style.

[@Byakuyahot]

This woman is talking about some good stuff:)and i am listening.

[@HelaoHishongwa]

a true african americam woman much love michelle

[@johnjose3266]

this is an intelligent woman,the first lady

[@kbeautician]

@tayottt. Agreed. My vote is for Michelle. She would make a fantastic senator, vice-president, secretary of state, or president.

[@almasyousuf]

Katie came equipped with "ready-made" questions and probably thought she would get the expected answers. I bet she realized that she was dealing with not an African American first lady, rather she was dealing with a highly educated, experienced, and a transformational female leader. I was disappointed to see Katie asking some questions that expressed subtle disrespect towards Michelle Obama. For example, when Katie suggested Michelle to "may be you should write a cookbook?" Katie, maybe you should take some advance inter-communication, and effective interviewing skills classes. I totally agree with Michelle Obama how role Models are people who are reachable and touch your lives not celebrities. For this reason mentoring and networking goes hand-in-hand!!!

[@Loving1999december]

+almas yousuf Well said.

[@dwightlove3704]

+Almas Katie had that Beulah mentality coming out of her.

[@tayottt]

This interview is a great foil to Katie's interview with Sarah Palin. We see in Michelle an educated progressive women that is fully in touch with the problems Americans are facing. We also see someone who is very logical and capable of presenting practical solutions to those problems. Is it wrong that I kind of want Michelle to go the Hillary route and break into politics?

[@bornkool]

Michelle Obama is a great orator she inspires many.

[@TheReturnOfBigBear]

Interesting, Internationally this woman is seen as a bright, attractive, thoughtful woman and the Perfect example of America at it's Best. I'd be Proud to have her as our First Lady, But, I'm not a Bigot or Right Wing Jerk

[@MeriemL]

Good video

[@delasoulish]

I'm back here because I'm really trying to understand what early footage of Mrs. Obama was Viola studying for her character traits/mannerisms used for her portrayal in The First Lady. I love Viola...but she missed the mark. So overdone and exaggerated. You can't nail them all...was really hopefully. Maybe it will get better as the series progresses. ❤️

[@ChicagoJoe57]

Katie Couric never asked Sarah Palin any weight questions either. Katie asked her about the same general questions that she did Sarah. What is your role, etc? First Lady's don't usually get drilled on the Constitution since they are not going to make policy.

[@roost24]

Oregon State University Athletic Director Bob DeCarolis was considering firing their basketball coach, Craig Robinson, after an 8-11 start (2-5 in the Pac 10 conference). When word of this reached Washington , Undersecretary of Education Martha Kanter was dispatched to Corvallis with $17 million in stimulus money for the university. Craig Robinson’s job is safe for this year. For those of you unfamiliar with Coach Robinson, he just so happens to be Michelle Obama’s brother.

[@minnierv]

@dgl1962 that’s a very true statement.

I wouldn't even talk with a man about fashion and cosmentics: women of all races all over the world like to plaý with different looks and colors. And men enjoy it. :-)) I find it very strange if a man wants to discuss such issues with women.... Except he is a gay hairdressers, of course .... :-))

[@eamonnpeter]

groundedness? what a foul word. But so is anecdotally.

[@lavaignited]

I admire Michelle Obama, but I can't watch her interviews because SHE NEVER BLINKS.

[@wbtaylor1]

This woman and her 22 attendants are a joke. We spend over 1.5 million dollars a year for 22 people to handle her social life. It's a sham and a disgrace.

@funkbrother216 Two things: you shouldn't be so crass and you aren't correct. Not everyone can afford to bring a lunch of real value. Holding schools to a more responsible menu helps those kids. Which is what we are moving towards.

Okay, thanks for calling me names. So, I read your stuff on their. Let me be kind in saying, you're the radical. Those materials are massive opinion pieces followed with conspiracy theories. Should you wish to provide empirical evidence beyond these pieces which offer no tangible evidence for their claims, just broad based generalizations, let me know. Good luck to you in life, you're going to need it.

[@cashernandes1]

I know this is not really the place but what's with the black people's attempts to straighten their hair? I mean, it's their hair and they do what they want to it, but it almost seems it is WRONG for them to wear their natural hair. And that, I think, is kinda disturbing. I saw a black girl recently wearing her natural hair and I found it so stylish, lol. I'm a guy, but I kinda understand it takes a lot of work to straighten your hair, right?
