"First of all, how good looking is my wife?" Obama asked the crowd. Yay! How? A lot. As a friend of mine remarked, it's about time we had some hot people in the White House.
Beyonce sang Etta James' "At Last," and the couple was formally introduced by Denzel Washington. Get this - they hit TEN inaugural balls last night. Ten. And they probably weren't even allowed to drink. When club-hopping becomes a chore. After the 7th dance, Shell musta been like "Can you go get us out of Iraq now, while I save the economy? My dogs are barking."
What a night. This hat will always be part of our fondest memories.

You know Bey-Bey was jealous and regretful she wasn't spotlight dancing and just providing the mood music for the celebrated couple huh!?

T-Bone says:
Beyonce seems like a nice person, but she is totally overrated. She's not even a great singer. She just happens to be pretty.
Sylvia says:
Beyonce has no style when it comes to dressing up.
Pudenda Shenanigans says:
Why did Michelle wear a gown made out of toilet paper? It was awful.
Worst gown in Presidential history.
David in Chicago says:
I have to check my rules of men's dress, but I don't think a white tie is appropriate with a standard cut jacket with center vent in back.
BRITTNEY says:
