Michelle Obama covers the November issue of Glamour and she dished out some great dating advice.  Pop the hood to see what the First Lady is working with. Michelle sets the ladies straight and tells the groupies and gold diggers not to look at the cute face or the bank book but at the heart:

“Cute’s good. But cute only lasts for so long, and then it’s, Who are you as a person? Don’t look at the bank book or the title. Look at the heart. Look at the soul. When you’re dating a man, you should always feel good. … You shouldn’t be in a relationship with somebody who doesn’t make you completely happy and make you feel whole.”

Ladies take note.

  • WordtotheWise

    Michelle is truly top notch. Her advice is perfect. Way to go, First Lady!

  • Betty

    She is absosutely right.

  • Memphis Belle

    Why can’t I feel WHOLE all by myself? I’m so sick and tired of people saying, “I need a man or woman to complete me!” You first have to complete and feel whole ALL BY YOURSELF before you jump into any relationship or a marriage. I see where she’s coming from. Maybe she didn’t mean it that way but, you have to complete and feel whole all by yourself before you expect another to do it. If that man or woman makes you feel whole or complete, how would you feel if that man or woman one day just ups and leaves you? Answer that. P.S. Michelle looks beautiful!!! Love that dress, GO GIRL!!!

  • ensiteful

    As a black man, I love me some black women from dark to light skin, Angola to Atlanta…but sorry Michelle Obama is not pretty at all. Beautiful yes that she is a loving and supporting wife and mother and oh so smart. But she is not easy on the eyes.

    I guess that must just be a requirement to be the President’s wife or first lady.

  • Angee

    Red is pretty on her, but I am not sure about this cover or the hair. It looks better down around her shoulders.

  • Nikki88

    you tell em mama

    Take a bow brutha….WELL SAID!!
    Although I must disagree with your statement about Michelle, while I don’t think she is easy on the eye, I don’t think she’s hard on them either. I think she falls right in the middle somewhere….oh and BTW I love me some Brutha’s.

  • LOVECHILD5O4

    Love her!!

  • eveinthegarden

    awwww…doesnt Michelle look purrrrty!

  • mISS t

    I’m sorry but I loooove me some First Lady (No homo). I’m soo glad we’ve got a beautiful brown woman with no weave, botox, or weight issues. She’s is beautiful – PERIOD….. Too many black men have been conditioned to love strippers, and the beyonce’s who are always half clothed and bending over dancing. Black men are just afraid of class and elegance.

    Our First Lady is making us proud everyday. She’s not the negative stereo types we see every day on TV about black women. Remember yall, she’s 47 years old and looks absoutely FABULOUS!

  • http://bossip nikki

    I love her sooooo much!!! Beautiful black woman.

    @ensiteful
    @sunny
    H’mm I wonder if Barrack would have married her if she was 200+lbs? Doubt it. Smart woman. Looks in the middle or a little above average looks is a good place. Who needs a Bonyce or Nicki Minja that you can’t hold a conversation with? She’s smart and keeps her weight down. Sisters should try to learn something from that.

  • http://yahoo Myshel

    I am so glad she wrote so often sista’s suffer from low self esteem, low self worth, no confidence and feel that cash, looks are the key and they will sell thier souls to be degraded..when a person loves you you feel really good about yourself..and most of all secure. Thanks Mrs. Obama our sistas needed this.

  • Atl_Finest

    This is the same advice women have been getting for years. They will continue to make bad choices.

    well i’m pretty sure he owuld have married her if she were fat and WHITE! we all know how much black men love and worship fat white women. its the funniest thing to see a brotha down a sista over her weight but run off with the first triple wide white woman that will take him in and feed him! i’m willing to bet my limbs this brothas here – Shawn Jones – probably jerks off to pictures of fat white women every night!

  • Loving being Black

    Are you emplying that we spoke negative against Michelle.If you did I think you heard it wrong. I simply said she is average looking, but that does not mean that im talking about her. It just mean that she no beauty queen, just average. Of course I love Michelle for she is a true inspiration to all women. And for your comment about hooking up with ensight, thanks but no thanks. This is not a hook up and find a date blog..

  • I HATE THE “N” WORD

    Love it I hate Glamour but I am going to scoop the issue.

  • monique

    Great advice, simply put. If you have to give more than your 50% to make it work, it isn’t working. In this life a woman is simply going to have to do a lot of rejection, rather than trying to changing a man. No one ever told me about the amount of dumping I would have to do, but its worth it if it means I keep a space open for the man that respects me and isn’t selfish.

  • monique

    I read the comment about her being on a lot of magazine covers. Lets not forget about Laura Bush, Hilary Clinton, Jackie Kennedy. They have plenty of magazine covers. Lets not forget that none of them, excluding Hilary of course, were as smart and well-educated in their own right. Its not about being a model that people love about her, it’s about her being the complete package. That sort of positivity of Black women is not celebrated ENOUGH. She represents a woman like me who is marriage-minded, family oriented, and successful. That’s why she’s photographed and admired so much.

  • Love being Black

    @Sunny,
    I wasn’t IMPLYING anything. I was simply making a comment regarding Michelle Obama with absolutely NO regard to your comment.

    The comment regarding you and ensightful was meant in the spirit of being lighthearted.
    You really should lighten up. No harm intended.

  • Asha

    What a beautiful women! Education and class can take you far in life. I would rather be smart than a beauty queen.

    The spirit of being lighthearted??? Did you not once stop and think that i may be in a committed happy relationship ?..To which I am. We should not make comments so boldly since we don’t know the lives of each individual that post on blind blogs as such. I’m not being harsh, just saying. No harm intended on my part either…

  • Man, I just don’t care™

    I think those are things that you tell yourself. She needs to sit down and even some democrats believe it is starting to be a case of “over exposure.”

    Exactly what was the purpose of this “interview” again? I hope Obama puts an end to all of this before it comes back to haunt him next election.

  • knowledge

    What makes her amazing?? Just because she is Barack’s wife? Yall get a life and stop riding the Obama’s nuts. She is not amazing at all and I am tired of seeing the Obamas Enough already

  • WordtotheWise

    The only eyes she needs to be easy on are her husbands. Everyone else, who cares? I don’t recall Michelle being a beauty queen contestant so what difference does it make?

  • Life

    Go ahead Michelle speak knowledge. You are right most of our brothas are selfish! Just look at who they do decide to couple for life with…you know them they are the Ray Js, Lamar Odom, Reggie, bAby face, Michael Jackson, and all his brothers…

  • WordtotheWise

    sorry, “being seen…”

  • sunny

    Yes, and we can thank America for that so called thing as “freedom of speech too”!

    ____________________________________________________
    Uh, don’t know about that. Brothas that usually go after fat white chicks are usually into fat sistas, too. Brothas that talk down on sistas for being big are most likely to at least date a white woman who’s in shape and under 200lbs. There’s no way the President would’ve gone after a fat white chick, maybe a regular sized one but not a double wide.

    @jjb:

    Well said. I don’t understand why people are bitter toward Michelle Obama anyway of all people. She’s very comfortalbe and well off in life.
    You mentioned Beyonce one too many times in the 3rd paragraph though.

  • http://yahoo.com kerrin

    @ensightful when we speak of beauty it isn’t all based on looks from the outside but it is more of deep within, she is more beautiful to me because she has class and carries herslf as a queen, not bowing down to hollywierd tactics of plastic this and fake that and all botoxed up, she is comfortable in her own skin and to me that is beauty at it’s finest first lady doing us proud!!!!

  • Why Am I Reading These Comments?

    @jjb, Very well said.

    80% of the bloggers on this site are mindless clowns. It’s refreshing to read comments by the 20% every now and then. Thanks.

  • its me

    @jjb

    Beautiful post.

    I agree this is a beautiful cover of our first lady, and she gives cogent, insightful advice — It is important to look at the soul of the person who’s pursuing/courting you.

    And to those who question why Michelle continues to grace the covers of magazine, these publications recognize the widespread popularity of Mrs. Obama. I loved seeing a recent column written by Charles Blow, a black NY Times columnist, about the first lady, called “The Magic of Michelle” in which he gave tangible evidence of her impact, nytimes.com/2009/10/24/opinion/24blow.html?_r=1&scp=2&sq=charles%20blow&st=cse:

    “In April, at the peak of her popularity, a New York Times/CBS News poll measured her favorability at 67 percent. The same poll found that a stratospheric 84 percent approved of how she was handling her role as first lady. That means that even half of those who didn’t hold a favorable view of her as a person still liked what she was doing as first lady.

    (It should be noted that polls by USA Today/Gallup and CNN/Opinion Research Corporation, both released this week, put the first lady’s favorability ratings in the 60s and above those of her husband.)”

  • TOO REAL FO YA…

    The FIRST LADY is the business I love her style and class, doesn’t matter what color she is intellect has no color line…She is a GREAT ROLE MODEL for all these little lost souls that’s following the Beyonce’s, Rhihanna’s and Reality fake tv personalities out there!!!

  • Hummm

    Somebody must have passed out the green juice today!! Lotta hatin’ going on! You don’t have to think is is beautiful, but you do need to recognize, applaud and respect her game…and that is to be respected and taken seriously as a woman of substance and not like a “broad” from the streets!

  • Hummm

    Sorry, she is beautiful

  • chzz

    Beauty and brains.This is what our women need to follow.Education,ambition and smart choices.
