Are there any body language experts in the house? I have a question…
Could you do a quick analysis of these photos of First Lady Michelle Obama with her husband Barack Obama and tell me if her closed body language indicates tension or defensiveness?
In an interview with People magazine earlier this year, Michelle revealed that her marriage to Barack wasn’t perfect. Since then she seems to be cold and distant to her husband. Especially during momentary lapses when she forgets there’s a camera around — such as in these photos.
Michelle’s non-verbal body language is clear and unmistakable. It’s also an involuntary reaction, meaning Michelle is probably not even consciously aware that she’s repulsed by her husband’s touch.
What could be the problem? I know this probably sounds far fetched, but do you think Michelle really approved of White House social secretary, Desiree Rogers moving to D.C. with them?
Compare Michelle’s closed body language in the above photos with Desiree Rogers’ very open body language with Barack in the photo below.
Photo of the Day: Obama puts his economic advisor to sleep
This photo is hilarious! I knew Barack Obama was a boring speaker, but this photo provides conclusive evidence. Obama’s Economic Council Director Larry Summers (L) nodded off while Obama spoke to the press after meeting with officials from the credit card industry at the White House today.

Rumor Control: T.I. and Tiny tying the knot?
While surfing my favorite blogs, I spotted this on Rhymeswithsnitch:
A little birdie told me… and by a little birdie, I mean I read it on Baller Alert, that T.I. might finally be ready to settle down [maybe settle down aren't the right words, if you believe what they say about those two and their penchant for threesomes]. Anyway, snitches on BA say Tip and Tiny are getting married before Tip goes to jail May 19th and that he’s planning a bachelor party at the King of Diamonds mega strip club in Miami.
I don’t go on Balleralert.com (no particular reason why) so I don’t know where they got that info from. But I was just speaking by phone yesterday to a high level exec at Grand Hustle who told me about a “going away party” she was planning for T.I. in Miami.
At no time during the conversation did I hear the words “getting married” “bachelor party” or anything along those lines.
Now, wouldn’t the person planning the party know if that was a bachelor party or not? Also, when I asked her for a comped hotel suite with limo service (since I am planning on attending), wouldn’t she have asked me if I was comfortable attending a bachelor party?
I’m just saying.

Is this the new IT couple? I sure hope not…
Look back at it
Socialite/singer Christina Milian and songwriter/singer The Dream were spotted strolling in Beverly Hills yesterday. Just when I thought we were done seeing these two, the heifer went and touched up her roots. That pretty much guarantees we will be seeing more pics like these all over the blogs — at least until Rihanna and Chris Brown hook back up. What is it about bottle blondes with no talent that attracts the paparazzi like magnets?
Beyonce sounding horrible on Dave Letterman show (she has NO excuse this time)
I know some of you have seen this already, but bear with me. Some of my readers probably don’t watch The David Letterman Show, and therefore weren’t witnesses to this horrible spectacle last night. Beyonce attempted to prove all her music critics wrong by singing without a backing track — and she fell flat on her face! Let’s face it, Beyonce is a burlesque singer who shakes her azz and slides across the stage on her back. We don’t expect anymore from her than that.
Obama, looking for love in all the wrong places?
Please note, this editorial was written by Ed Rollins, a senior political contributor for CNN.
From CNN.com:
-
Like so many politicians I have known, the man we elected president wants to be loved. He wants to be loved passionately and daily by the 69 million who voted for him and even some of the 60 million who voted for John McCain.
He wants to be loved by the Democrats on the Hill and even the Republicans who have still not given him any love.
He wants to be loved by the Europeans who have made a career out of badmouthing U.S. presidents and their policies.
The real example of searching for love in all the wrong places was last week’s lovefest south of the border when, in effect, he appeared to be hugging Castro, Ortega and Chavez who have spent their lives fighting everything the United States stands for.
The problem, President Obama will find out as time goes on, is that he is not a rock star or a celebrity. He is certainly famous, and for the foreseeable future everyone will want to see him, touch him and hear him. But the job of president is about making choices. And right now he has the toughest job in the world at one of the toughest times in U.S. history. Every time he makes a choice, he will make the losing side mad.
Pharrell undergoes laser tattoo removal treatments
Producer Pharrell Williams underwent painful laser treatments to remove tattoos from both his arms, neck and upper torso recently. I seem to recall in my memory banks seeing a picture of Pharrell undergoing this same procedure in the past. Apparently he learned nothing from that experience. It takes a special kind of fool to mutilate his body in the name of fads or trends. These are the types of individuals who live for the here and now without considering the consequences of their actions. This procedure is what every tatted up rapper has to look forward to in his declining years. Unless he wants to be 75-years-old and living in a nursing home with hideous tattoos all over his body.
