And now, an update from Michelle Obama, who confirms why her bangs are history to Parade magazine: “You know, it’s hard to make speeches with hair in your face!” She also reminds us that she’ll turn 50 in January:

I have never felt more confident in myself, more clear on who I am as a woman. But I am constantly thinking about my own health and making sure that I’m eating right and getting exercise and watching the aches and pains. I want to be this really fly 80-, 90-year old.

You know what they say: A mom dance a day keeps the doctor away! Finally, would she ever consider a bid for office, maybe even just a little bit? “No.”
