Mdm Michelle is the most intelligent, well spoken of all the president's wives in American history. Her beauty and grace is on par with Jackie O and Princess Diana. She continues to inspire
Jackie Kennedy had to go through a lot more with President Kennedy he was a great president but wasn't probably the best husband. She had to go through a lot after his assassination I wouldn't wish that on anybody. Michelle Obama's trials were different with President Obama being the first African-American president all the racism and hatred they had to endure was a lot different than the Kennedys.
I'll never understand why so many people think Diana was beautiful. But yes, Mrs Obama is beautiful and gracefull. And intelligent, compassionate and funny.
@@aljoschalong625 Diana walked through mine fields and held hands with people dieing of AIDS when the US and English governments turned a blind eye. The monarchy killed her because she was right and an inconvenience and embarrassed for them
totally totally if u are like 30 IQ points below the average. Just breathe through the recession, loss of income, recession, the high mortality rates, the decay in infrastructure lmao. She is the last person anyone should hear from about dealing with real stuff, I would love to listen to some cleaning lady or guy, someone who works at a steel mill, or customer service how they deal with not one of the most overprivillaged pampered people in the world
I have heard a lot of people say derogatory things about her since she was in the White House. I never saw or heard anything she did to deserve the criticism. She is a brilliant woman with a lot of compassion and will go down in history as one of the top First Ladies.
She's black..that's all the reason hate-filled people need. If she was malania can you imagine what they would say. They hate educated black people while simultaneously telling black folk to pull themselves up by the bootstraps. It's unbelievable that even poor white uneducated people hated this woman but loved Melania who has zero accomplishments.
What a down to earth lady. She has a lot of class but even more common sense and wisdom. She didn't let celebrity get the best of her basic humanity. Her husband is a lucky man.
@@collegefootballpicks2972 I guess you're too stupid to see that the neck of her top is so tight, you'd see an Adm's Apple. Sorry - meant to say too racist.
Wow I appreciate her. I can't believe I get to witness her and her legacy. Everything she said was so on point. I needed to hear that today.. I hope people take notes from her because we all need it.
Lovely, graceful, intelligent, charming and completely relatable and down to earth. She is the American version of the people's princess. We miss you and Barack soooooooo much!
@@ViridianaD24 having worked on a TV set, I know there are many things that can go wrong. This type of show usually has three cameras, one each for individual shots, and one for the two-shot. Also, these days studio cameras are robotic, meaning there's no one standing behind it to manually pan, tilt and zoom. The camera focusing on Michelle may have gotten stuck or had the video go bad. Also, there could have been a problem in the control room where the couldn't switch to the next camera. Also, most of the late night talk shows actually tape earlier in the evening. It could be a case they forgot to edit the other shot in. Making a TV show is sometimes like making sausage. It's often better not to watch how it's made.
She is the epitome of everything that is good about America. .. from a concerned Englishman in the UK.. the world is in a mess, but we can get through this.

Such a shame every single person here in the US couldn't see her and her family as a genuine blessing. You don't have to be American to see it🙂 just a decent human at least. We will all get through this stronger. Have to believe.
The Obama's already served their Country, why would they want another 4 or maybe 8 years of Running of the most complex and powerful government on Earth. They probably just want beaches and drinks for the reminder of their lives. But a guy can dream right?
She doesn't like politics. She embraces the responsibility that comes with her position, but to be in the actual arena herself, she had said in the past she's not interested
I have so much love and respect for Michelle Obama. And that little "awww" when he put up the wedding picture... what a joy. I feel lucky to be sharing a planet with her. Thanks for carrying the light, Michelle!
We, among the fools that have the honor to claim her without the wisdom to embrace her, also love and admire her. To those of us who recognize the majesty that comes with integrity, she is our Queen.
Michelle Obama has this incredibly relatable way of breaking down our individual and collective anxieties into ways of managing it and finding light to exit that trapping space. She’s too great for politics because she’s too busy being America’s guiding moral compass, a mantle I think she wouldn’t like to admit she possesses, but it brings me such joy and appreciation to live with that through books, podcasts and just all of it.
her husband is basically why i'm alive, because I was diagnosed with a severe pain condition and couldn't go back to work, couldn't get any kind of disability and lost my insurance. I had to enroll in college I was too sick to attend just to get health insurance coverage for a couple years before the ACA took effect because any insurance I could buy wouldn't pay for anything at all because of preexisting conditions. Not even pain meds. Luckily the ACA changed things before my pain condition worsened or I wouldn't be here at all. it wasn't just him but all the people who voted for it, wrote the laws, etc. But I genuinely don't think it would've happened without him. It's not perfect, but boy is it a lot better than the alternative.
Michelle Obama describing doing art projects as a family is one of the most wholesome things I’ve ever heard! I want to see how far she has progressed in her knitting. She is a beautiful woman, a loving mother, and a kind & supportive spouse. So glad that she represented us for 8 years on the World’s stage. She is a gift! ❤️❤️❤️
What a lady, her and her husband are the voices of reason, compassion and are interesting without being confrontational. Here in N.Ireland we only think our politicians are bad but in USA some of the looney's in your houses take the biscuit.
Thank you for posting this extended interview with Michelle Obama! She is always so uplifting and captivating that I find myself smiling during the entire video. 🤩♥️
Can't lie when I think about having another family like that in the white house the first one that came to mind is Buttigieg. The main problem with that? Could you win an election if even the people who like you can't spell your name off the top of their head? I don't know. I just think he's full of compassion and his family is so cute and it would be nice to see kids grow up in the white house again.
@TryNDoxMe no misery. Democrats, independents and even many republicans just voted against trumps candidates showing they are done with him. Yet he will run again because he needs the attention. And he will lose. Again. Good times. BTW angry much? Good luck with that.
oh she is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!! so eloquent, persuasive, brave, and sincere and real,. You can feel it in your utterance. And yet despite all that, she's still funny!
I just started reading Michelle's "The light we carry", beautiful ,captivating introduction .Being a slow reader hopefully I will finish it before the winter ends !
I love how she instinctively turns to the audience and starts speaking DIRECTLY to them when she talks. Yes, Stephen was conducting an interview, but you can tell how important it is to her to speak to EVERYONE in the audience.
Every time someone says something bad about Chicago, think about people like Michelle. There are lots of smart and decent people here like Michelle that you don’t hear about in the media.
Like anywhere, there's lots of stupid decent people too and they deserve to be recognized for being decent human beings regardless of intelligence. I actually think there's a party divide in intelligence where one party feels ignored by elites who went to colleges and discuss things they don't understand and it's harming the nation but particularly kids because it results in a party who wants to restrict what their children can learn in school so that they don't grow up and talk down to their parents. I think everyone should take responsibility for it, but especially those of higher IQ who expect to use the language we do and not have those who barely got through high school and many who didn't feel like they can't participate in conversation. I'm guilty of it myself, but I do have friends and family I will adjust language usage for so that we can communicate and they don't have to do the embarrassing thing of asking me what words mean. I don't think enough people make the effort to listen and communicate with others because it's easier to categorize someone as stupid and dismiss their thoughts. And conversely, it's easier to categorize someone as elite and dismiss their thoughts because no one wants to talk to someone that makes them feel stupid.
I've lived in Chicago my whole life, and we're simply getting picked on because we're a Democrat city with a gay, black female Mayor. Yes, we've had our issues with an increase in crime (like every other big city), but we remain a world class city with some of the best universities, culture, architecture and dining/nightlife in the world. On a per capita basis, we're not even in the top 20 in terms of overall crime. But...we became a right wing media punching bag starting in 2008 the second Obama was elected. I'll let you do the math on why it all began then.
Thank you Stephen and Michelle for giving me a reason to smile. This interview was a delight to witness. i think we all need to be reminded to look to where another person's fear comes from. it's important to remember to have empathy. We as a country seem to have lost our willingness to love our neighbor. Take a moment to consider what might that stranger's life really be like. Did they plan to be at this point in life? Did they stumble and not recover ? How can I help in some small way? Then do that one thing..... and give a hug!
I can't accurately describe it, but multiple times throughout the interview her words gave me chills. I know that so many questions and answers of such interviews are predetermined, which is the norm with any interview, especially an icon of her stature, but she has a way of just bringing everything to true realness -- regardless of what anyone planned. I believe every word, I have hope for every sentiment, and I could only aspire to be such a person that makes one see a lighthouse on the horizon in a storm as she does - even regardless of politics she is a beacon
@@DivaDen when you mind gets noisy, ask yourself “ are these thoughts useful “ then ask “ what is the purpose “ it will quiet your mind from the chatter,so you may continue to breathe quietly, and if you commit to 15 minutes a day for 30 days it Will change your life and you will want to continue. I was up to 90 minutes a day for 3 years and everything in my life improved and remained at my highest for another 7 years, and I gradually spent less time in meditation and more time “working” and eventually stress returned as did the noise. I’m now 73 and I meditate 15 minutes twice a day,I’m retired and I’m more connected with my kids, my life, my compassion and happier once again
I don't think America appreciated the Obama presidency when they had it. The rest of the world did, but for the most part, Americans will have to reflect on that part of their history and appreciate it in the past tense. The rest of the world will always look to America for leadership and inspiration whether it's political or economic. There is no better country in the whole wide world, in spite of its struggles and turmoil. No other family amplifies this better than the Obama's.
@@duchess2367 so you took the time to say something negative towards the former First Lady rather than saying something positive. You can do better than that! We all have a choice to spread positivity and healing worlds around the world no matter our ethnic background, sex, race, or religion; the question is, do we have the character, morality and humility to want too!!!!
With such grace and dignity, Michelle Obama, expresses to us her vulnerability to help others who may be experiencing too much internalizing and no idea how to get out of our own heads. So appreciated. ❣️❣️❣️
There are a few people that I can just sit and listen to for hours on end and Michelle Obama is one of them. She is so authentic, intelligent, inspirational, humble and just a wonderful human being. I am Canadian and I watch her and say she is the example of female leadership at its finest. I wish she wanted to run for President but I completely understand her decision to not expose herself and her family to that vitriol and nastiness. She has decided to give in other ways that are more natural to her. Love, love, love her!
I have always loved the Obama. Both Barack and beautiful Michelle are extraordinary people and the best President and First Lady we ever had. Seeing Michelle is such a joy! Thank you for this delight! 😍❤️
@@dragonflies6793 they already have role models. Who made the rule that each gender should have role models of the same gender. What I mean is men should have Michelle as a role model too
@@justaperson2653 I don't think you get it. "Who made the rule that each gender should have role models of the same gender" disregards that when every successful person you see doesn't look like you, doesn't face the same issues as you, it's hard to believe you can be successful. It becomes a cycle. It's incredibly important that we have *female* role models for young *girls*, and Michelle Obama is an amazing one. Obviously she can also be a role model to people who aren't girls. But it's specifically important that girls get to look up to her.
hands down one of the best conversations I've ever heard. especially the light she shed on marriage and family. I have no faith in marriage but she really gives me something to think about.
Such a delight to watch & listen to this interview! It's like getting a glimpse of the light that the new book bears. So much substance & wisdom from both Michelle & Stephen. I enjoyed watching!
A gift??? I like Colbert, but that seemed incredibly self-serving, it was like - move the camera to the left already, to your incredibly thoughtful, articulate and intelligent GUEST.
Admiration and respect for MO, smart, classy, dignified, genuine, fun, funny, fit with great family and friends! Never saw that with #45 and his.....never again!
I'll never understand how Michelle and Barack could have had such an incredible life and remain so humble and centered. Extraordinary.

yes, shes a great lady, brings goodness where ever she goes--inspiring not fake
It's A GUY!!!!
She has to be the classiest 1st Lady ever. She's a great role model. Mad respect for her and her husband. 🫡
She is extremely classy and a person whom I would love to have as a friend. Lovely lady.
One of many... in fact; basically; Melania was the only one that didn't give a damn about the "office".
First to be called "FLOTUS". Don't know that just any first Lady is cool enough to merit the nickname
And the coolest
I agree. Kennedy was pretty cool too.
Michelle is the whole package. The classiest class act there is. 💜
Its a woman wrapped in a man's body
@Earthcat She is wonderful! A role model in every way.
Shut up Jr. Your a creep born of a monster!

Man I miss that family in the White House. Relatable, glamorous, smart, fun, compassionate.
Can't lie when I think about having another family like that in the white house the first one that came to mind is Buttigieg. The main problem with that? Could you win an election if even the people who like you can't spell your name off the top of their head? I don't know. I just think he's full of compassion and his family is so cute and it would be nice to see kids grow up in the white house again.
Me too ❤
@TryNDoxMe no misery. Democrats, independents and even many republicans just voted against trumps candidates showing they are done with him. Yet he will run again because he needs the attention. And he will lose. Again. Good times. BTW angry much? Good luck with that.
And you didn't have to worry about them embarrassing America. Every. Single. Day.
One thing is for certain, your excessive ignorance will never be called into question.
My gratitude to and for this phenomenal woman is ever-deepening.

Man**
lol
WHAT A LADY! Elegance and grace personified! ❤
She is one of the most impressive people we have ever been lucky enough in this country to have... The epitome of class
oh she is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!! so eloquent, persuasive, brave, and sincere and real,. You can feel it in your utterance. And yet despite all that, she's still funny!
I just started reading Michelle's "The light we carry", beautiful ,captivating introduction .Being a slow reader hopefully I will finish it before the winter ends !
She's the best and enjoy her personhood, truthfulness and relating with others. She is a jewel.
What a remarkable woman. She never ceases to amaze me. We were blessed to have such an extraordinary woman as First Lady.
Pure class and intelligence. I admire her so much for sharing her fear and how she overcame it.
I love how she instinctively turns to the audience and starts speaking DIRECTLY to them when she talks. Yes, Stephen was conducting an interview, but you can tell how important it is to her to speak to EVERYONE in the audience.
....important to HIM,......Michelle is a HE,.....Obama is gay
look it up michelle real name was mike! she is a trans
@@enjoythedreamlife5658 I think you're mistaking her for your mother.
@@enjoythedreamlife5658 looks like you weren't loved. Sad
@@enjoythedreamlife5658 Typical incel's comment. How's your mother's basement?
Thanks Michelle, for the love and marriage advice, even for a non-young person.
Every time someone says something bad about Chicago, think about people like Michelle. There are lots of smart and decent people here like Michelle that you don’t hear about in the media.
Like anywhere, there's lots of stupid decent people too and they deserve to be recognized for being decent human beings regardless of intelligence. I actually think there's a party divide in intelligence where one party feels ignored by elites who went to colleges and discuss things they don't understand and it's harming the nation but particularly kids because it results in a party who wants to restrict what their children can learn in school so that they don't grow up and talk down to their parents. I think everyone should take responsibility for it, but especially those of higher IQ who expect to use the language we do and not have those who barely got through high school and many who didn't feel like they can't participate in conversation. I'm guilty of it myself, but I do have friends and family I will adjust language usage for so that we can communicate and they don't have to do the embarrassing thing of asking me what words mean. I don't think enough people make the effort to listen and communicate with others because it's easier to categorize someone as stupid and dismiss their thoughts. And conversely, it's easier to categorize someone as elite and dismiss their thoughts because no one wants to talk to someone that makes them feel stupid.
I've lived in Chicago my whole life, and we're simply getting picked on because we're a Democrat city with a gay, black female Mayor. Yes, we've had our issues with an increase in crime (like every other big city), but we remain a world class city with some of the best universities, culture, architecture and dining/nightlife in the world. On a per capita basis, we're not even in the top 20 in terms of overall crime. But...we became a right wing media punching bag starting in 2008 the second Obama was elected. I'll let you do the math on why it all began then.
Well, there are still very valid reasons why they left...along with Oprah, Michael Jordan...
Michelle Obama is like a warm, safe, familiar hug.
She is. That's why I have her last (audio) book playing on a loop as my bedtime story--and have pre-ordered her new one!
Well said... 🙏
Yes , that description is perfect for her as well as President Obama!
Michelle is BIG MIKE 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Touché!
I know she is master communicator and all but she genuinely seems like somebody you wanna have in your life!
yes-she gets it/irrationality can become enveloping-but shes centered
Everything she says is so thoughtful and on point.
Your consistency and quality of content never disappoints! ❤️
How can you not love this Lady??? God bless you and your family!!!
😂😂😂😂lady? Call that “lady” BIG MIKE!!!!!
@@peachypink77 Grow up.
She hugged W Bush like he was puppy. He's a murderous war criminal who belongs in the deepest cell of the most disgusting prison.
@@peachypink77 I agree! Go Big Mike!!!!
Thank you Stephen and Michelle for giving me a reason to smile. This interview was a delight to witness. i think we all need to be reminded to look to where another person's fear comes from. it's important to remember to have empathy. We as a country seem to have lost our willingness to love our neighbor. Take a moment to consider what might that stranger's life really be like. Did they plan to be at this point in life? Did they stumble and not recover ? How can I help in some small way? Then do that one thing..... and give a hug!
yes, pamela herring, sincere/empathy/get to the bottom of issues
I can't accurately describe it, but multiple times throughout the interview her words gave me chills. I know that so many questions and answers of such interviews are predetermined, which is the norm with any interview, especially an icon of her stature, but she has a way of just bringing everything to true realness -- regardless of what anyone planned. I believe every word, I have hope for every sentiment, and I could only aspire to be such a person that makes one see a lighthouse on the horizon in a storm as she does - even regardless of politics she is a beacon
Amen!!!! ❤️
❤❤❤
Exactly Maxi, she spoke from the heart... and the brain. What an incredible woman.
I'm waiting for a Melania interview, she's surely full of wisdom too 🤣🤣
And brought tears to my eyes.☮️💜
Of course she gets 20 mins uncut! respect!
Authentic and relatable. There is such power in this, when combined with intelligence and passion. Love her. ❤
After all these years and numerous interviews she still gets the same response ❤
I just love Michelle Obama and the fact she meditates and such a brilliant leader and teacher .
Imagine what the world would be like if more meditated.
Less talking, more listening.
@@Edu_Kate I tried to its so hard. My mind just winders the qho 10 mins 😔
@@DivaDen The gift of being present to our inner quiet is well worth the effort of moving through the disquiet.
@@DivaDen when you mind gets noisy, ask yourself “ are these thoughts useful “ then ask “ what is the purpose “ it will quiet your mind from the chatter,so you may continue to breathe quietly, and if you commit to 15 minutes a day for 30 days it Will change your life and you will want to continue. I was up to 90 minutes a day for 3 years and everything in my life improved and remained at my highest for another 7 years, and I gradually spent less time in meditation and more time “working” and eventually stress returned as did the noise. I’m now 73 and I meditate 15 minutes twice a day,I’m retired and I’m more connected with my kids, my life, my compassion and happier once again
Wow, this message needs to be spread throughout the world on live national telivised news bc she is brilliant and anointed.
I don't think America appreciated the Obama presidency when they had it. The rest of the world did, but for the most part, Americans will have to reflect on that part of their history and appreciate it in the past tense. The rest of the world will always look to America for leadership and inspiration whether it's political or economic. There is no better country in the whole wide world, in spite of its struggles and turmoil. No other family amplifies this better than the Obama's.
She wore a belt around a roll of fat
@@duchess2367 so you took the time to say something negative towards the former First Lady rather than saying something positive. You can do better than that!
We all have a choice to spread positivity and healing worlds around the world no matter our ethnic background, sex, race, or religion; the question is, do we have the character, morality and humility to want too!!!!
With such grace and dignity, Michelle Obama, expresses to us her vulnerability to help others who may be experiencing too much internalizing and no idea how to get out of our own heads. So appreciated. ❣️❣️❣️
What a wonderful sincere interview. Thanks to both of you!
Adore Her. Class Act. Beautiful, Smart, Funny, Kind. Thank You, Michelle!
Love Colbert!! Such a terrific interview with our former First Lady! She is so amazing!
Anyone saying the Michelle stage entrance song ?
There are a few people that I can just sit and listen to for hours on end and Michelle Obama is one of them. She is so authentic, intelligent, inspirational, humble and just a wonderful human being. I am Canadian and I watch her and say she is the example of female leadership at its finest. I wish she wanted to run for President but I completely understand her decision to not expose herself and her family to that vitriol and nastiness. She has decided to give in other ways that are more natural to her. Love, love, love her!
Amen!! Too much Fear gets us stuck!! I agree First Lady Obama!!!
We love you Michelle. Praying for you and your family !
Thank you for your leadership, humility, and Grace .
I have always loved the Obama. Both Barack and beautiful Michelle are extraordinary people and the best President and First Lady we ever had. Seeing Michelle is such a joy! Thank you for this delight! 😍❤️
Beautiful/ugly eyes
She gets more inspiring every time I hear her 🙏🏽
I don't understand why they call her a role model for young girls. She's a role model to all of us
Because young girls need the role models. Guys already have a bunch.
@@dragonflies6793 they already have role models. Who made the rule that each gender should have role models of the same gender. What I mean is men should have Michelle as a role model too
@@justaperson2653 I don't think you get it. "Who made the rule that each gender should have role models of the same gender" disregards that when every successful person you see doesn't look like you, doesn't face the same issues as you, it's hard to believe you can be successful. It becomes a cycle. It's incredibly important that we have *female* role models for young *girls*, and Michelle Obama is an amazing one. Obviously she can also be a role model to people who aren't girls. But it's specifically important that girls get to look up to her.
@@dragonflies6793 I was talking specifically about how most men don't want to consider women role models
Role model, (even) (to) ones older than (she) is, such as (myself)!!!!
God I love her so much, she is such a good example of how to live your life and be the best version of yourself
hands down one of the best conversations I've ever heard. especially the light she shed on marriage and family. I have no faith in marriage but she really gives me something to think about.
I love her too.
Same.
it's definitely the most honest perspective I've ever heard on marriage.
Michelle Obama is when intelligence meets emotional awareness. So much of what she said resonated.
IMHO it´s called "wisdom" 😊
Big Mike
BIG MIKE #chickswithdicks
Michelle Obama is a deeply impressive person.
She tries to help....
Such a delight to watch & listen to this interview! It's like getting a glimpse of the light that the new book bears. So much substance & wisdom from both Michelle & Stephen. I enjoyed watching!
Stephen Colbert x Michelle Obama awesomeness job interview
Beautiful Michelle is a golden beacon of HOPE 🌹
She's the real deal. Inspirational.
Yes BIG MIKE is the real deal …ask Miss Barack 😂😂😂😂
@@peachypink77 Grow up.
I actually can’t believe how many impactful things she managed to say in 25 minutes. Really glad to have her as a role model
She is amazing, a light.
😂😂😂
All I heard was garbage
@@bobbyg433 🤡🤡🤡
@@roddangerson2046.....you heard though🤗
Each time lady Michelle speaks, I marvel at her mastery, her grace and her beauty. What a thoughtful person!!❤
Never go low as Michelle Obama says 'it's unsustainable'.
@@jaquelinethomson6210 so accurate.
The extended shot of Stephen listening to Michelle was such a gift.
I thought it was weird, but it seems some folks thought differently.
@@onedaya_martian1238 I DID TOO im glad im not the only one who noticed that lol. But maybe its cause its the extended cut?
A gift??? I like Colbert, but that seemed incredibly self-serving, it was like - move the camera to the left already, to your incredibly thoughtful, articulate and intelligent GUEST.
I noticed that, too. I thought maybe she had a booger hanging out and they didn't want us to see. Great interview
I noticed that too. He was just so attuned to her. It was awesome to see him being completely present with her.
I love how down to earth Michelle is. She doesn't seem to have let her time as 1st lady get to her head.
*Eleanor Roosevelt, Jacqueline Kennedy, and Michelle Obama are my personal trifecta of ICONIC, favorite first ladies.*
SOUNDS RIGHT
All ugly
I never clicked on a subscription notification so fast. Love love love Michelle Obama especially on Colbert
Shes the best. I'm listening to it on Audible and its so helpful and full of wisdom.
And you wonder how anyone could dislike Michelle. Such an inspiration and intelligent person.
I always find Michelle Obama inspiring and yet so down to earth at the same time!
Admiration and respect for MO, smart, classy, dignified, genuine, fun, funny, fit with great family and friends! Never saw that with #45 and his.....never again!
