Could you imagine doing your usual Target run and seeing First Lady Michelle Obama in your checkout line?! She was spotted looking incognito today in Alexandria, VA while shopping it up.
Pics inside…
Looks like Mrs. Obama’s security threw on their street clothes to blend in because no suits with earbuds were spotted in the store.
Right outside of D.C. in Alexandria, VA, FLOTUS decided to grab a few things for 30-40 minutes with her assistant at the local Target. She was dressed in a floral button down, black pants, a Nike baseball cap, and shades. But of course, she was still somewhat noticeable. The Associated Press reported that Secret Service arrived 30 minutes before her and blended with the other customers. The only person who recognized the First Lady was her cashier!
In case you’re wondering if it was really her, the White House confirmed it this afternoon saying,
"It is not uncommon for the First Lady to slip out to run an errand, eat at a local restaurant or otherwise enjoy the city outside the White House gates," said Kristina Schake, communications director for the First Lady.
CBS News reports the pics were snapped by an Associated Press photographer who says he was tipped off that she would be there.
Sometimes you just want to do things yourself and without all the hoopla…

The rumor was first run by the Daily Star. A source told the publication, “Both William and Kate are massive fans of Beyonce and Jay-Z. They really wanted to make their big day even more special and what better way than by getting pop royalty to perform at the party?”
The royal couple reportedly “will have an official reception for hundreds of dignitaries before throwing a less formal bash for loved-ones.” According to the source, “they both wanted to ditch traditions and make it more personal for them,” and “it’s highly likely they [Bey and Jay-Z] have taken up the Royals’ offer.”

Kicking off the inauguration festivities, Beyonce Knowles took the stage at “We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration” at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC on Sunday (January 18).
During her performance, Beyonce belted out a wondrous rendition of “America the Beautiful,” yelling out “We are one” upon the song’s conclusion.
With Bruce Springsteen, U2, George Lopez, Will.I.Am, Samuel L. Jackson, Queen Latifah and Tom Hanks among the other celebrities on-hand, the event included “a diverse array of talent featuring both musical performances and historical readings.”
