Let me say God Bless Michelle and her family, I do wish her well with her artistic endeavours however a Latin phrase does help here
Vanitas vanitatum omnia vanitas, (vanity of vanity, all is vanity)

Let me say God Bless Michelle and her family, I do wish her well with her artistic endeavours however one balks and the caveats abound when discussing her. 'We go high while you go low' was one of Michelle Obama's stunningly banal urgings for her friend Hillary Clinton in the recent US Elections; as space doe not contain high or low this was to engage in trite utilitarian language. Speaking of language, another caveat was Christopher Hitchen's view on Michelle Obama's University thesis: 'this was not written in any known language' Hitchens asserted, and continued: '...in Michelle Michelle Obama’s commencement speech at Tuskegee which is designated as a historically black university — she encouraged graduates to challenge and rise above the racially-based slights, insults and indignities they may face. “The road ahead is not going to be easy,” Michelle said in her address. “It never is, especially for folks like you and me.' As Hitchen's observed,'Is this not the rage of entitlement?' for Hitchen's reminds us that Michelle Obama failed to mention that her Grades to get into Princeton University were not good enough, however she was the beneficiary of 'affirmative action'. More recently she was seen with James Corden in 'carpool karaoke', call me a snob, but one could not help wondering as one watched it about the dignity of office.
