While Beyoncé takes her fair share of criticism from fans and legends alike, she's got at least one important lady in her corner—the First Lady, Michelle Obama.

In a cover story on Mrs. Jay-Z in Ebony magazine this month, Obama unleashes praise on the singer and how humbled she was by B's inaugural performance.

"Beyoncé is an incredible young woman. Barack and I have met her on a few occasions, and it was a great honor to hear her sing 'At Last' so beautifully at the inauguration," Obama said.

"She is so talented and so real, and we just love her."

So does Jay-Z, aside from the occasional mess his wife leaves around.

"I'm a little messy," Beyoncé tells the mag, "I think that is the most difficult thing for him. He's very, very organized."

    Whats not to hate about Beyonce she has everything: the voice, the beauty, a man that loves her, a family that supports her and a blessed career. And she can actually sing. Whats not to hate about her, she has everything. Michelle Obama knows greatest and its the jealous old school legends and fans of the other 1/2 talented celebrities that don't like Beyonce because Beyonce makes them look bad.

    Beyonce is a better singer than Rihanna. Rihanna's rock style singing more appeals to my taste.This type of violence would not happen to Beyonce because of the amount of caring people she is surrounded by and the respect that she commands for herself, even dancing half naked and all.

    Beyonce has everything but i will never envy her for being with Jay Z wahtever the money and power he has. He has still a pedigree as an ex drug dealer and gangster turned rich and is ugly as hell.

    I would rather be linked to a nice doctor, lawyer, someone with intellect and elegance. Someone who is above average looking if not good looking. No wonder that she is not eager to have ababy with her husband cause if she does and the baby looks like her husband and that the baby is the female version of that husband, that will be pretty tough for her daughter. Cristina Aguilera face the same thing. Her baby is a son so it will be easier for him.

    Speaking of First Lady Michelle Obama:

    Michelle Obama is a racial-minority individual, and in her heart and mind she inevitably does not endorse hate crimes committed by George W. Bush.

    George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).

    George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.

    And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.

    Many people know what Bush did.

    And many people will know what Bush did—even to th e end of the world.

    Bush was ab solute evil.

    Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.

    Bush is a psychological prisoner.

    Bush ha s a lot to worry about.

    Bush ca n technically be prosecuted for ha te crimes at any time.

    In any c se, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

    I am not su re where I had read it before , but anyway, it is a lingui stically excellent statement, and i goes kind of like this: “If only it were possible to ban inventio n that bottled up memories so they never got stale and faded.” Oh wait—off the top of my head—I th ink the quotation came from my L ower Merion High School yearbook.
