Michelle Obama said that even though they live in the White House, Sasha and Malia “can’t go in the refrigerator and get what they want,” she told Billy Bush. ”They can’t pick up the phone and order anything. They’re kids,” she said. “That’s the point that I make to them: You live in the White House, but you’re a child.” It figures the Fitness Bot First Lady would strategize her daugthers’ diets with military-like (or Madonna-like!) precision. [US Weekly]
Halle Berry has filed child custody paperwork to move her three-year-old daughter Nahla to france, where her fiance Olivier Martinez lives. This is pissing off Nahla’s dad, model Gabriel Aubrey, but is proooobably a wise move anyway because Halle is getting death threats from a stalker (who used to threaten Madonna!). This scary dude escaped from a mental institution last week and Halle apparently is freaked out. [Uptown Magazine]

But what’s a supermodel doing opening her mouth? Everyone knows they’re just here to look at! [Houston Chronicle]

They’re just of some random cousin on the show named Amy Duggar. The woman claims she has sexy pics of Amy Duggar in “intimate situations” with a 56-year-old dude. Uh, sorry, no one cares.

Today’s Lady News: Obama Could Compromise On Birth Control Coverage Under Health Care Reform

Jessica WakemanFebruary 7, 2012 //

The Obama administration is open to a “compromise” on the health care reform requirement that religiously-affiliated employers cover preventative care, including birth control, without co-pays or deductibles. Some schools and hospitals balked that the only exemptions made were for explicitly religious employers. But this morning, David Axelrod, an advisor on the president’s re-election campaign, said the administration will “look for a way” to make everyone happy. [New York Times]
Mitt Romney said that Susan G. Komen for the Cure was right to cut grants to Planned Parenthood.
