Queen Michelle Closes Madison Avenue for $50K Shopping Spree
2012-01-30
British lingerie label Agent Provocateur has seen annual sales jump by more than 12 per cent in a year which also saw First Lady Michelle Obama joining their list of elite customers.

Mrs Obama, is said to have spent $50,000 (£31,794) in the one shopping trip to the boutique which closed down part of Madison Avenue when she visited with the Queen of Qatar, Sheikha Mozah.

Ya know, if this was a Republican the news medias would be trumpeting it from the heights and show it as a rich elite that is out of touch with the common man who is hurting.

#9  Sniff, sniff, nice to see being FLOTUS hasn't killed or altered all of Michelle's spirit, ala "le Chic".

Now iff only she could hold up a Firebomb/
Molotov + Protest Sign.

#5  $50,000.00 worth of underoos. I guess those Obama's really are in touch with the 'common man'.

#4  Madison Ave was closed for the safety of the public, lest they inadvertantly suffer a glimpse of, as hellfish said, "the Wookie in a teddy."
