Michelle Obama on Being First Lady: 'I Can't Stand It'

Trust me, sister, most of America can't stand you as First Lady, either.

Michelle Obama thinks being America’s First Lady is ‘hell’, Carla Bruni reveals today in a wildly indiscreet new book.

Miss Bruni reveals that Mrs Obama replied when asked about her position as the U.S. president’s wife: ‘Don’t ask! It’s hell. I can’t stand it!’

Details of the private conversation, which took place at the White House during an official visit by Nicolas Sarkozy last March, emerged in Carla And The Ambitious, a book written in collaboration with Miss Bruni.

Living large on the taxpayer dime of a downright mean country must be so taxing. All the luxurious trips just can't help make it any better, huh?

Expect the requisite denial and trashing of Bruni to commence at any moment.
