Some guys get down on bended knee to propose; Barack, the foodie obsessive, had a waiter bring Michelle an engagement ring on a covered platter, and pretend to be presenting dessert. This and other riveting Obama intimacies are revealed during an interview with The First Couple, airing tonight on CNN.Reporter Suzanne Malveaux's deeply intellectual discussions with Barack and Michelle also include the shocking news that despite his reputation as a dandy who loves hand-made suits, Barack frequently has holes in his pants. Yep, this is of dire importance to national policy, and we're thrilled Malveaux got The Obamas to 'fess up.
We gotta warn you that in the clips we've seen of the show, Malveaux is frequently shot so she looks somewhat satanic; there's an odd glint in her eye as she listens to Michelle and Barack speak. Still, Barack's reflections on his father's absence during his childhood, and Michelle's candid descriptions of being partnerless while Barack pursued his political aspirations are rather fascinating. The Obamas appears tonight and Sunday on CNN at 8 PM Eastern time.
*Malveaux had a lot of Obama Access in the past year, and she got into hot water during her last Barack news special, Obama Revealed, when she misrepresented some Tony Rezko-Obama connections, which online news watchdog site Media Matters corrected. Read their analysis here.
