Looks First Lady Michelle Obama and her daughters got photographed by this girl in the foreground, who caught them in a selfie.

First Lady Michelle Obama was Chicago Thursday for an official event touting career training for disadvantaged youth, but she spent far more time at a Beyonce concert the night before, begging the question: What was the true purpose of her taxpayer-funded trip?

She said she practiced until her feet bled, but decided to use the recording anyway. I’m not sure how her singing caused her feet to bleed, but she should definitely have this checked out. What I’m still trying to figure out is, if she wasn’t singing, why did she pull the earpiece out of her ear midway through the song? Was that to, say, GIVE
