Michelle Obama takes in Christina Aguilera’s Las Vegas concert where she gets special attention from a shirtless twerking male dancer
Barack Obama’s wife Michelle Obama had a fun night on Wednesday evening when she was not only treated to a performance by Christina Aguilera – but a special dance from a shirtless twerking man.
The former First Lady was spotted in attendance at Aguilera’s The Xperience concert at Planet Hollywood’s Zappos Theater in Las Vegas, the same place Jennifer Lopez held her performances.
The 56-year-old was seen sitting with her friends when a male dancer wearing nothing but black shorts and gold chaps came up to her and twerked in front of her.
Michelle certainly didn’t seem to mind the special attention – in fact she actually cheered the man on, smiling and clapping her hands together, before raising them in the air.
Michelle got into the spirit of the night as she clapped away as the dancer did his thing while a female security official stood off to the side.
It looked as if she could have been gesturing toward him.
He also climbed on the half wall in front of her and then several other male dancers, who were also in gold chaps, came by.
She then seemed to get into a fit of giggles as if she could not believe what had just happened.
Obama watched as the dancer walked away, joining the other back-up dancers. She raised her arms too as did her pals. The row of people behind her were standing up to get a better look.
Then Christina walked by in her black undies that exposed her bottom and black-and-gold chaps with a gold top and black vest.
Her flaxen hair was worn up in a high ponytail.
The star held a microphone to her mouth as she belted out Lady Marmalade.
Michelle seemed to be having a great time on Wednesday as the Genie In The Bottle hitmaker sang some of her best hits including Dirrty and Can’t Hold Us Down.
Obama wore her hair in a full style that was flattering and added glamorous makeup as well as hoop earrings for her Sin City concert. Michelle also had on a black shirt with gold necklaces.
She was with a blonde female friend as they sat in the VIP section.
A photo was supplied to DailyMail.com by a friend of Brittany Cartwright of Vanderpump Rules fame who sat near Michelle in a VIP section.
Michelle was in Las Vegas for work reasons. Earlier in the day she attended the Ultimate Software Connections Conference.
Michelle and Christina – who impressed the audience when she sang at Kobe Bryant’s memorial in February – have known each other for many years.
In 2016 Obama stopped by The Voice where she got to know Aguilera as well as Blake Shelton and Adam Levine.
Obama was on the set of the competition show to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the Joining Forces initiative.
Launched in 2011, it is a nationwide program to honor and support both active and retired military service members and their families.
Also there was Joe Biden’s wife Jill.
‘We need some strong female energy! Let’s soak it all in!’ Aguilera told Entertainment Tonight about Michelle and Jill showing up.
‘It’s rare we get that around here,’ she added.
Michelle and her husband Barack have been supporting his former Vice President Joe Biden as he runs for President Of the United States in hopes of defeating standing President Donald Trump in November.
So far, Joe is leading in the Democratic primaries.
This sighting comes just as news hit that Barack and Michelle have reportedly teamed up with the Russo brothers on a new Netflix film.
According to Collider, the former US President and First Lady will work on an adaptation of Exit West, the best-selling 2017 novel by Mohsin Hamid.
Barack has previously included the fantasy drama on his list of best books. The fourth novel from Mohsin, who hails from Pakistan, tackles the global refugee crisis as it follows a young couple, Saeed and Nadia, who are forced to flee an unidentified war-torn city in the Middle East.
The duo then join a group of migrants and travel to safe havens around the world using a system of guarded magical doors.
The Obamas’ company Higher Ground Productions is teaming up with the Russo’s AGBO banner to produce the feature adaptation for the streaming giant, although representatives for the Russo brothers have yet to comment on the rumours.
Riz Ahmed is reportedly attached to star, with Yann Demange helming the project. The Imitation Game director Morten Tyldum was originally tapped to direct the movie, but it will now be made by Yann, who has previously directed White Boy Rick.
Mike Larocca will produce with Tonia Davis and Priya Swaminathan, while a new writer is expected to be hired to work on the adaptation in the near future. The Russo brothers recently wrapped production on crime-drama Cherry, which stars Tom Holland, while the Obamas’ Higher Ground Productions was behind the Oscar-winning documentary American Factory.
