Michelle Obama on Tonight Show with Jay Leno
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's wife Michelle Obama appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night.
When given an opportunity, the potential first lady declined to criticize GOP vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin about revelations that the Republican National Committee spent $150,000 on clothes and accessories for Palin and her family.
"I try to be empathetic," She said. "I mean, especially a VP pick, it's like being shot out of a cannon ... All of a sudden, you are the center of attention. But our policy has always been whatever we wear, for us, we buy."
Mrs Obama said she and her husband have a policy of spending their own money on their clothes. She revealed the cheery yellow outfit that she wore on the show came from J. Crew.
"Actually, this is a J. Crew ensemble," she told Jay Leno, ""You can get some good stuff online," she added.
