In a very official statement, the White House has welcomed the newest member of the first family: Sunny.

Somebody thought they could heckle Michelle Obama. Somebody thought wrong. About 12 minutes into a speech the First Lady was giving for a Democratic Party fundraiser in Washington, D.C., a protester interrupted to demand that the president sign an anti-discrimination executive order. And that's when things got real.

The POTUS, Barack Obama, and his FLOTUS, Michelle Obama, were named the World's Most Powerful Couple by Forbes. No surprise there, but they were joined on the list by a slew of celebrity pairings as well.

The Official White House Tumblr sounds like a parody website that would be full of political snark and GIFs. But it's not a parody. The recently launched page is actually the official Tumblr for the White House. Like, for real. But that doesn't mean there isn't snark and GIFs...

If you've been on the internet for maybe eight minutes, you've no doubt seen the 'Evolution of Dance,' a pretty brilliant routine from a dude named Judson Laipply that went viral years ago and has since racked up 210 million YouTube views. (Go watch it. We'll wait.) On Friday night, Feb. 22, First Lady Michelle Obama and Jimmy Fallon gave it their own twist by doing the 'Evolution of Mom Dancing.

Not since Jackie Kennedy have we had a First Lady who was such a worldwide fashion icon. So when Michelle Obama turned up at the Inauguration with bangs, we knew we'd seen the birth of a super-hot trend. Here's just a few of the international superstars we've already seen copping Michelle's new look.

Everybody in America who was planning on getting bangs this week is thoroughly miffed at Michelle Obama for stealing their thunder. People sincerely cannot stop talking about the First Lady's haircut. Even people who want everybody to stop talking about it are talking about it...

First there was Jackie O, nee Kennedy. Now? There's Michelle O. And not since Jackie has a First Lady's fashion sense and style been this discussed. Mrs. Obama nails it nearly every time, and at tonight's (Jan. 21) 2013 Presidential Inaugural Ball, she was a vision of loveliness in a chiffon and velvet Jason Wu gown in ruby red with a plunging back, cinched waist and delicate pleating.
