The First Lady Michelle Obama appeared on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert and spilled some beans on President Barack Obama’s off-duty demeanor.

She also revealed to Colbert that both she and their two daughters – Malia and Sasha – have developed impersonations of the president.
Obama told Colbert she had little sympathy for spouses of presidential candidates who stand by their partners, even if they do not agree with their policies. If you’re in it, and if you don’t agree, you should have agreed before they ran.
Colbert then pressed Mrs Obama on her thoughts regarding Melania Trump’s controversial speech.
In a preview clip from the episode that will air in India on Star World Premiere, Michelle Obama said the president tries to set his work aside and focus on his family when he crosses the threshold into the Executive Residence. So I stand there proudly and I hope they are too.
‘Let’s move on, ‘ Colbert replied.
Now, more than two months later, Mrs Obama has offered her thoughts on the incident during an interview with USA talkshow host Stephen Colbert. Her answer echoed everyone in the world: Beyoncé.
She continued, “I find myself choking up cause we have raised our kids in the White House”. “You shouldn’t look her in the eye”. “It’s a person that has a lot of swag”, she said. “Except I can’t sing, I can’t dance”, she added. With just months left at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., there are also things she’ll miss, she said.
