Michelle sets the right tone

MICHELLE Obama and her daughters Malia and Sasha are planning to visit Ireland this month. If they do make it to these shores, you can bet there will be a huge media scrum surrounding them, with camera lenses focussed on the First Lady’s megawatt smile and world-famous arms.

Michelle may only have become famous as a result of her husband being President of the USA, but since then her arms have taken on a life of their own.

She has graced most glitzy engagements in a sleeveless dress, showing those toned arms off to best advantage. So much so that newspapers refer to her as ‘Jackie O with biceps’.
