0:00 Michelle Obama, who has been everywhere with this tour of her ridiculous book, trying to promote this ridiculous book. And we have a few latest sound bites of her. Um, as you know, just very much like uh Karine Jean Pierre, she's obsessed with race. This is actually from her podcast, not not her uh book tour, but here's here's a couple samples of what she's been saying these days about black women sought 17. And we have to start educating people about all kinds of beauty.

0:30 Yes. Um and our beauty is so powerful and so unique um that it is that it is worthy of the conversation and it's worthy of demanding the respect

0:43 that we're owed for who we are and what we offer to the world. Absolutely. Oh my god. It's not 1938. Like

0:55 we must accept that there are all kinds of beauty, Moren, because we racist whiteies don't accept that any black person could be beautiful. She's so bigoted against white people.

1:05 She's so out of her mind. Like uh Naomi Campbell, Tyra Banks had like one of the biggest competitive reality shows going based on how to be a top model.

1:16 Whitney Houston was one of the biggest stars of all time and one of the most beautiful. She started the bodyguard, remember with Kevin Cosner.

1:31 Let's go back to Diana Ross. Let's go back to um who starred as Foxy Brown. I forget her name.

1:37 How about Zoe Kravitz? Like stunner and a huge Bonet, her mother, Lenny. Like, stop. Just stop.

1:46 You suggest we can't accept them as beautiful because they're black. Right. right? You know, and and Michelle's my favorite thing about Michelle. So, first of all, she's talking primarily to white women who she wants to buy this book. So, she's saying to white women, you're racist. You have a limited concept of beauty. Spend $59 as I did because I have to see the book and they're never going to send it to me for free on my book. This book is an ode to the awesomeness that is Michelle Obama.

2:13 What's in it? Is it just page after page of her? of her and her looks and her beauty and how she got to look this way. It's just it's it's I I I I'll never display it in my
