US first lady won鈥檛 rule out plastic surgery or Botox
Print Edition
Michelle Obama, who celebrates her 50th birthday today, isn’t ruling out using plastic surgery or Botox in the future.
“Women should have the freedom to do whatever they need to do to feel good about themselves,” the first lady told People magazine.
“Right now, I don’t imagine that I would go that route, but I’ve also learned to never say never.”
Her message to women is to be healthy. Obama says she has never missed a health checkup, including mammograms and cervical smears. She’s also had a colonoscopy.
“I don’t obsess about what I eat, but make sure I’m eating vegetables and fruit,” added Obama. “And as everyone knows, I do exercise.” Her “Let’s Move” campaign tackling childhood obesity through exercise and healthier eating enters its fifth year next month.
Her workouts have also evolved from weight-bearing and cardio exercises to include things like yoga that she says will help keep her flexible.
Asked whether she has peaked at 50, Mrs Obama joked that being first lady is “pretty high up.” She said she’s always felt that her life is “ever-evolving” and she doesn’t have the right to “just sit on my talents or blessings.”
“I’ve got to keep figuring out ways to have an impact, whether as a mother or as a professional or as a mentor to other kids,” the first lady said, noting that daughter Malia, now 15, will be in college when she and President Barack Obama leave the White House in January 2017. Daughter Sasha, 12, won’t be far behind.
“At that point in life, whoa, the sky is the limit,” the first lady said.
President Obama is planning a big birthday dance party for his wife at the White House tomorrow night. Aides are keeping a tight lid on details, though guests have been told to come prepared to dance and to eat before they come.
“There’s one thing I can tell you for sure ... people will move,” Valerie Jarrett, a senior White House adviser who is close to the Obamas, said.
