Secret mall trips. Dining out incognito. Michelle Obama has constructed a life inside the bubble—and has her own sense of her 2012 role, Lois Romano reports in this week's Newsweek.
The most recognizable woman in the world routinely ducks reporters to have what she calls a "normal" life. Hiding beneath a baseball cap, the first lady of the United States has picked through sale racks in the frenetic Tysons Corner, Va., mall with girlfriends, bought supplies for her dog at Petco using her own credit card, and dined at some of D.C.'s hippest eateries largely unrecognized.

Hey Lois, you can’t polish a turd.. so stop trying.
BFD she aint all that important In the great skeam of things a non factor
Oy - please make it stop. This couple has to be the most graceless couple since the Carters, at a minimum.
There are no photos of her in her incognito role so don’t even go to the link.
How tall is she anyway?
Just under 5’11”.
“I thought the Daily Beast was Michelle Obama.”
I gotta stop drinking ice tea at my pc. Now I have to clean the keyboard and screen.
Tysons?
There are plenty of people there that work in ‘sensitive’ areas... they understand the situation.
It’s not Hollywood. Celebrity doesn’t matter, or at least didn’t.
Of course, the main reason she can shop without being bothered... most people in NoVA try to avoid failure like the plaque
Perhaps well-mannered folk are simply averting their eyes from this train wreck of a FLOTUS.
Al baby ping!
A “baseball cap”? If she wants to hide from the plebes, she’d look great in one of these - http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_helmet

I enjoyed reading the comments at the end of the article. Not one positive comment!
She is not America’s Sweetheart, that’s for sure!
Rebel? More like repulsive.
MO’s book: “Going Ogre”
The press are like pavlo dog: they have to write glowing pieces about the Obamas
Barry at the moment is not having a good week......so the wookie gets covered
The press has gotten to rid themselves of the tingle for the moment
Authentic things do not require such wordiness.
She is not America’s Sweetheart, that’s for sure!
Reading the comments was encouraging. The ratio of those who believe both Michelle and Barack are greedy America haters to those who are die-hard Obama sycophants is about 20 to 1.
yea, the credit card that says “First Lady” on it. LOL
She can hide the face but not the other end. At four axe handles wide it can’t be missed. Talk about a wide stance.
