First Lady Michelle's FAB Anniversary Dinner Date With Mr. President, Reveals Why She DOESN'T NAG Her Husband

Posted: 08 Oct 2012 10:01 AM PDT

The First Lady knows how to keep her man happy.  They've been married for 20 years afterall.  Check out what FLOTUS Michelle Obama has to say about keeping The President's home life hapy, not nagging him with her own opinions, and keeping politics separate from their relationship.

 

Plus, find out how the Presidential twosome spent their belated 20th anniversary celebration...

In a 3-part series, kicking of tonight, on ABC's "Nightline", First Lady Michelle Obama, speaking to anchor Cynthia McFadden (pictured above) from the White House, gives viewers an intimate look into life in the East Wing.  And Mrs. O says she purposely stays out of the West Wing. Here's a few highlights of the FIrst Lady speaking on keeping her home life happy:

On not nagging the President with her own opinions

"In a job like this, the last thing the president of the United States needs when he walks in the door to come home is someone drilling him and questioning him about the decisions and choices that he's made.  There are definitely times when I may feel something, but I'll hold back because I know he'll either get to that on his own or it's just not time."

On keeping her husband's politics separate from her own issues she pushes for

"I rarely step foot in the West Wing. In fact people are shocked when they see me there.  I rarely walk in that office because the truth is he's got so many wonderful advisers. He's got a phenomenal cabinet. He's got people who are in the trenches on these issues every single day and I'm kind of stepping in and out and I've got my own set of issues. So I don't even have the kind of expertise and the time in to be able to provide the kind of advice and guidance that he's already getting."

On preserving family time with First Daughters Sasha & Malia

"One of the things that Barack and I try to do in our lives which I think is one of the reasons our family is so whole, is that we make sure family is family -- it's not this sort of quasi-business relationship. We really do -- we're two people who love each other and put a lot of our energy into our kids and into our family unit,"

On losing all reservations about how Obama's Presidential run would affect their family

"In the end, Barack, our family is priority for him, and I knew that if I said no he wouldn't do this.  And then I had to think of whether I would want to be responsible for not having somebody like Barack you know, someone with his level of intellect, his honesty, his compassion, his vision. Would I want to be the one who stood in the way of this person potentially running this country? And I couldn't do that, because then I had to think beyond myself and my family and I had to think of sort of the broader benefits that this country could gain from his leadership."

Part 1 of the interview airs tonight on ABC at at 11:35 p.m. ET.

And the Presidential twosome made some time to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary this past Saturday.  It was a belated fete as he actual anniversary date fell on the date of the first debate last Wednesday.  But the First Couple made up for it:

They wined and dined at the fabulous Bourbon Steak at The Four Seasons Hotel in Washington, D.C.  Executive Chef Adam Sobel tweeted his excitement about his wishes coming true that he could finally host FLOTUS & POTUS.  And he tweeted a peek at their menu:

Sweet!  Congrats to the Obamas on 20 years!  Check out more pics of the swanky restaurant HERE.

CELEBS YOU MAY CARE ABOUT...HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY: Stacey Dash & Wesley Jonathan

Posted: 08 Oct 2012 09:03 AM PDT

Stacey Dash and actor Wesley Jonathan both made revelations over the weekend. Wesley admitted that he is a "cheater" while Stacey admitted that she supports Mitt Romney.  But it's her reasons (or lack thereof) that have folks talking.  Deets inside.....

Actress Stacey Dash became a trending topic and irked a few fans and followers yesterday after she tweeted her support for Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney.  

She posted a pic of herself wearing a "Baywatch" styled red swimsuit while standing in front of the American flag with a very prominent "R" on display.  Her tweet said Mitt Romney was the choice for the future.  But when a follower made a negative comment about her choice, she lashed out saying Mitt had "bigger balls" than the follower.

 

Although her "balls" comment was deleted, we wondered if Stacey was being held hostage or something because her tweets & nastiness seem....a little forced.  And unlike her.  Was she paid to do this?  She defended her words by Tweeting:

My humble opinion... EVERYONE is entitled to one.

But pretty soon, Romney supporters were popping up all over her timeline spreading their message and boosting Stacey's popularity.  

Is this a publicity stunt?  Or is Stacey really just voicing her politics?  We're all for celebs voicing their political opinions--for any candidate--but when you say things like "WOMEN are tired of Obama's disappointments, when it's Mitt who blatantly said he wants to repeal SEVERAL women's rights and healthcare, it screams foolish.  Have your beliefs, but be able to back them up properly and have educated opinions.

 

Actor Wesley Jonathan had something to say too......

"Soul Man" star Wesley Jonathan dished about a few of his exes saying, "I've made mistakes, I've cheated." On the VOH episode, 'Cheating In Relationships,' he revealed how men can cheat saying, We can separate our loins from our hearts and mind…women can’t.”

But how do you explain "Why" men cheat? He said about his own mistake, "I at the moment thought that something for that moment was stronger than what I already had but it wasn't cause its for that moment...anything new seems great.
 

Hmmm.We've heard this before.  Your thoughts?

Sidenote: Wesley & actress Denyce Lawton dated for several years.  it's unclear whether they are still together--or if she's the one he cheated on.
