The Obama Presidential Center is formally open to the public. Former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama personally welcomed the first guests to the unbelievable edifice that towers over the South Side of Chicago.
The Obamas also hosted earlier Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Joe Biden alone with their spouses at a Grand Opening Ceremony which included the likes of Jennifer Hudson, Common, John Legend, Lala Anthony, Kelly Rowland and Tina Knowles. All 4 of the Obamas—including daughters Malia and Sasha—made a uncommon household look for the momentous event, while Michelle delivered one of the most lovely tributes to her heroic husband, full with a healthy dose of shade in the direction of his haters.
The weekend of inaugural occasions started with a non-public event held for those who labored in the Obama administration during his 8-year tenure. During the night, Michelle took to the microphone to share how deeply Barack was liked by her mom, whose face coated her custom-made Acne Studios skirt, and how he’d made her proud both in life and in death.
“He’s really messed up,” she said standing onstage beside a visibly emotional President Obama. “I’m giving him some time because this beautiful skirt that my stylist Meredith Koop picked out, that is my favorite portrait of my mom, he didn’t know it existed until just a few minutes ago. Marian would have been so proud, she was so proud of her son-in-law and the man that he is and has been to our family. Always dreaming probably way too big. But always pulling it off.”
