After the drubbing they endured from the British media for giving the Prime Minister and his wife 25 DVDs, Barack and Michelle Obama gave Queen Elizabeth, 82, an iPod.
Can things get any worse for the Obamas?
From Usmagazine.com:
-
For Queen Elizabeth? An inscribed iPod fully accessorized and loaded with the “ultimate Broadway” collection of 40 tunes, including “People” by Barbra Streisand, “Aquarius” by Ronald Dyson and songs from a wide range of shows from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes to Rent and La Cage aux Folles -– and including music and words to toe-tapping tunes from 22 Broadway shows and two films.
“It was a fun and very welcome gift,” a palace spokesman tells PEOPLE about the iPod, which also contains photos of the Queen’s state visit to the U.S. in 2007.
Well at least they made up for their tasteless gifts to the British PM and his wife last month.

Mrs. Obama selected a personal style favorite for Mrs. Brown – a broach (to be specific, it was a “crochet black flower brooch with pearl accents”). John, 5, got a baseball bat signed by Derek Jeter, a baseball signed by President Obama and a book titled Classic Baseball.
For younger brother James, 2, there was a collection of 10 Dr. Seuss books.
Hey the Queen E needs to step her game up.
P.S. It’s from an American company, can you say Stimulus??
Maybe she should have got her Dereon’ jeans…all the single ladies…
Better be glad it wasn’t me – I’d have given her a framed picture of myself!
who cares. its the sign of the times and we are in a recession. she is lucky she got anything. besides she is nothing but a figure head anyway so…..
I wish I could caption Michelle facial expression.
She looks like she is thinking “This old bish just farted.”
YOU KNOW WHAT….ICESCREAM YOU GET ON MY NERVES….LMBAO!!!!
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE.
An ipod is a WONDERFUL gift I think for anyone who enjoys music. If the Queen has a thing for musicals, then it’s a plus. Give the gift of music
WTF? The Obamas got a silver-framed and signed photo of the Queen and her husband. I bet they have cases of those on standby or in the palace GIFTSHOP. Hi Hater.
lets see…QUEEN…PRIME MINISTER….QUEEN..PRIME MINISTER…umm, the QUEEN trumps anybody!
