Michelle Obama takes Stephen Colbert's Questionert | Mashable.
Michelle Obama answering quickfire questions from Stephen Colbert is a fun time
Some truly excellent answers.
Many celebrities have taken on Stephen Colbert's "Questionert" – basically a series of quickfire questions of the "Cats or dogs?" variety – and some have given answers that are hard to top (hello, Keanu Reeves).
But in the video above from The Late Show, Michelle Obama has a good go at it, answering everything from questions about her favourite smell ("My husband!") to the five words that best summarise the rest of her life ("Family, friends, in the sun").
Her best response, though, is probably to the question, "What do you think happens when we die?"
"We go to heaven," says Obama without hesitation. "Or, I do."
Was expecting fancy answers but Michelle kept it real. That's what I like about her and Obama. They speak and walk.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought it might end up like De Niro's.
DeleteGRILLED CHEESE 🙌
DeleteSo much poise and eloquence. We were so lucky to have the Obamas.
ReplyDelete💖💖💖
Can you imagine Melania doing this?
DeleteDefinitely not!
DeleteMelanoma would give the same answer to every question: "I don't care, do you?"
Delete& the audience would say the same thing
DeleteI know, right? Michelle elevates every conversation she's in!
DeleteRepublicans called her husband a liar every single day...then gave us Trump and George Santos.
ReplyDeleteIt's honestly embarrassing
DeleteShe is the definitive First Lady of our time!
ReplyDeleteExtraordinaire....
DeleteShe is the genuine article nothing phony about her. Intelligent intelligent humorous wisdom Jesus I missed the Obama's
ReplyDeleteShe finally made it to Stephen!!! I love when he interviews her!!
ReplyDelete- this was recorded when she appeared on the show about a month or so ago - same outfit
DeleteLove her. She is a class act
ReplyDeleteI wish more Americans had the dignity, kindness and respect that the Obamas portray. We’ve become a bitter, unfriendly and unhappy culture. If it’s a beautiful day then be happy!
ReplyDeleteNo. We’ve become distanced from friends and family, too comfortable and too entitled. People complain about everything insignificant instead of appreciating the good things we have. I become sad when I see Americans rudely yelling at working people like “I SAID EXTRA CHEESE ON MY PIZZA”. That’s not how we should be treating each other. We should be friendly and understanding and happy. People should stop complaining and smile/laugh more. It’s the key to happiness.
Deleteyoure the one on youtube complaining 😬
DeleteBe happy even when it’s not a beautiful day.
DeleteThat’s what I’m talking about 🙂
Deletehe/she is just asking people to be nice to one another... that's not complaining, it's a suggestion to rude hateful people and I agree
DeleteMy favorite First Lady. Such an amazing woman.
ReplyDeleteMichelle is pure gold 😊
ReplyDeleteEvery time I hear her talking. I felt my life happier. Great First Lady.
ReplyDeleteShe is just so genuine and kind. I love the rapport she and Stephen have together!
ReplyDeleteGood content to start the year.
ReplyDeleteMichelle Obama and Stephen Colbert in one screen space💫🙌 - What a treat - America you did well, having this Lady as Your First Lady!!❣
ReplyDeleteThis was very pleasant with down to earth answers. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThese 2 are pure gold every time!
ReplyDelete“We go to Heaven.... or I do” great answer. I love her.
ReplyDeleteLove her! I wish this was longer!!!
ReplyDeleteShe’s the First Lady of ALL time !
ReplyDeleteShe's just an absolute delight to listen, to watch and learn from 🧡
ReplyDeleteHands down first female president if she ran
ReplyDeleteThat '4' and the subsequent 'no' came out so quick I burst out laughing.
ReplyDeleteWhat 5 words I would pick for her and her family…”We lived happily ever after.”
ReplyDeleteI knew this was gonna be good. She never disappoints. That Barack guy's not too shabby either. 😻✌
ReplyDeleteStill the best 1st Lady of my generation
ReplyDeleteShe's the best first lady of my (long) life!

ReplyDeleteHappy new year Michelle Obama! I saw a photo of your daughters out for a stroll together the other day on line and their beauty is a reflection of their mothers.
ReplyDeleteWishing you all a healthy and blessed 2023 ❤
She is quite , dear ... What a cutie / brilliant , strong , independent woman ...
ReplyDeleteEvery time I watch/listen to her or her husband in my head I always think: We really hate intelligence in this country.
ReplyDeleteI want someone to give Stephen the Questionnaire. Oh. Evie!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea! He acts so pompous when he answers "No" to the guests on the number question. I'd love to see the tables turned on him.
DeleteThe finest first lady yall ever had the privilege to host in the WH
ReplyDeleteshe did good on the quiz!
ReplyDeleteI think Michelle is literally the first ever to pick oranges
ReplyDeleteNo, she's just the only person that Stephen would dare criticize about it.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love her!
ReplyDeleteAs! Is my number 2 of all time Stevie songs! I literally pumped my fist when Michelle picked that song😊. Now Stevie will gets some residuals thanks to Michelle. On second thought Stevie wrote the song!
ReplyDeleteSHE’S ALWAYS REAL!!
ReplyDeleteI bought her book for my 13 year old straight A student for last Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI simply adore her
ReplyDeleteClassy and real.
ReplyDeleteEducated, accomplished.
Authentic and open.
Unlike her predecessor.
successor u mean.
DeleteShe had me at grilled cheese ❤
ReplyDeleteI hate grilled cheese. So, I'm supposed to hate her now, right? Isn't that what we do now?
DeleteOr, we use it as an opportunity to take a "long hard inventory of ourselves," post it to TikTok or Instagram as tears flow down our face, and hope we get a deal with a sponsor.
DeleteSuch a great guest!
ReplyDelete"Have you ever encountered a dangerous snake?"
ReplyDeleteYes... at Donnie's inauguration.
Absolutely love her
ReplyDeleteGrilled cheese.cheddar? It’s like we’re the same person 😁❤
ReplyDeleteShe is wonderful. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteI love her so much!
ReplyDeletedude, seriously, that's the first time anyone's ever answered that question correctly
ReplyDeleteI love the comment of Mr. Colbert of the secret service arresting the 🐍 😁
ReplyDeleteSo adore her!
ReplyDeleteAmen Michelle!! We go to Heaven, or I do! SO MANY other stars, like 99% say some bullshit answer, like we turn into static energy or cardboard dust.
ReplyDeleteI think it is delightful that you believe in heaven. That for you, all the laws of physics just magically change the day you die. Mind you, if these laws of physics change for everyone else that same day, airplanes will crash, buildings collapse, dead folks might get up and walk. Your book says that happened when Jesus died. And that will happen for you? My, you think a lot of yourself!
DeleteGotta like Michelle she's got Guts its nice too see someone stick on his own values
ReplyDeleteSo classy and elegant
ReplyDeleteThe Questionert is Stephen’s best segment. I was hoping Michelle Obama did it too. Classiest First Lady in modern times.
ReplyDeleteMiss y'all, welcome back. What a nice way to start the New Year
ReplyDeleteMichele Obama, what a wonderful, beautiful and classy woman and First Lady.... Very intelligent too!
ReplyDeleteColbert looked so bummed that she didn’t pick apples lol.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I noticed he doesn’t ask the “flat or sparkling” question anymore!
Real yet so classy
ReplyDeletefor the grilled cheese lovers, butter your bread with used bacon grease. It's probably healthier than using margarine, at least it's not worse, and it tastes good and it crisps up REALLY nicely
ReplyDeleteSpread a schmear of mayo on the outside, it’s a whole other level!
DeleteI'm not pro or anti mayo when it comes to grilled cheese, I like to use a small amount myself. My tactic is to melt everything in the pan then place the bread in the liquid, instead of using a knife to spread it. then pull the sandwich when it's done on one side and melt more bacon grease and then let the other side fry
DeleteBe good to your heart and use butter made from the milk of grass-fed cows. Superior taste and health benefits to boot!
DeleteGrass-fed Irish butter!
DeleteI always say "oranges" because apples have allergens and you can use orange peel to refresh a dried-out bag of weed.
ReplyDeleteif you are allergic to evergreens then oranges are bad too.
DeleteYou can be severely allergic to oils in citrus fruit such as oranges, actually
DeleteMichelle ROCKS!!!
ReplyDeleteI knew this would be good.💞
ReplyDeleteThank you. Someone finally got the first question right: grilled cheese.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I didn't know...that I needed this today. ✔
