Michelle Obama's Marriage Advice: Friendship Is What Gets You Through

October 26, 2012 Politix

First Lady Michelle Obama has a bit of marriage advice for “Extra’s” Mario Lopez. She told him, “As my husband would say, just make her happy. Make her happy and continue to be friends… it’s the friendship that gets you through the tough times.”



In a recent sit down with the Mrs. Obama, she also revealed some insight into her 20-year relationship with President Obama. “We’re man and wife, we deal with our kids,” she explained. “I try not to get in his head. He’s got a lot of wonderful advisors and they are talking through what they are going to do and it’s just better for me to be his rock.”
 
When the conversation shifted to who should play the couple in a movie, Michelle was quick to answer when it came to her husband, “I think a Denzel [Washington] type [or] Will Smith because of the ears.”
 
When Mario suggested Halle Berry play Michelle, she didn’t argue, “Sure, sure!”
 
Watch the interview for more with Michelle, including why she thinks President Obama is the best choice for Latino voters.

Eva has no clue!! I am a average lower middle class American and know we will not benefit from having Obama as President for another four years! He has put us deeper in debit and jobs have not gotten any better! I have a college bill of 30,000 for a associate degree as a medical assit., and they want to pay you 9.36 an hour! These movies stars have no clue living in their mansions, expensive cars, etc.... The government, corporations, and the rich worry about each other and stand up giving their speech of lies, while off stage laughing to the bank! The Obama care is a joke.... I just make enough to keep a roof over our head and food in our mouth! I don't need someone telling me that if I don't have health insurance I will be fined. And with as much help as our country needs why is it we give our money to other countries? Did any country come to our aid and help financial when 9/11 happened? I am sad, disappointed, and embarrassed! Movie stars keep standing up there and talk your talk, cause its your words and not the average Americans words!!

The President and Michelle are not rock stars, the behavior on this show is disgraceful and is nothing more than a Obama pep rally.

There are a lot of other things than friendship. Mario looked like a star struck kid with Michelle Obummer.

I agree with Jeanne. ExtraTV and it's hosts are nothing more than paid shills for Barry Soetoro "Obama". All you guys do now, is to glorify and hype the Obamas any chance you get. It's disgusting.
When was the last time you had the Romneys on your show?
You haven't.
All you do, is talk and talk about them, and promote them any chance you get, and that is WRONG!
This vacuous gossip show has become nothing more than a free advertisement for Barry Soetoro and his dopey wife Michelle.
You all should be ashamed of yourselves to being Kool-Aid drinking, sycophantic stooges of the Obama cult.

I have lost respect for your show after the blatent show of liberalism I have seen these past few weeks. The President an his wife are NOT celebrities!!!! You are trying to influence voters and lead young people to believe that this political family are movie stars or music idols. You have given the Romneys barely a mention. It was much more fair when politics was left to the evening news and debates.
