Barack Obama may be president of the United States, but he is still a father, so he had to be feeling some kind of way when his eldest daughter took part in that teenage rite of passage and went to her first prom.
Malia Obama, 15, is a 10th grader now, so she does what other adolescents do and that is rolling to school dances and going out on dates.
“Malia did have her first prom … I think it’s fair to say that the first time you see your daughter in heels is a little bit jarring,” he said. “She’s lovely. She’s beautiful.”
Pushed for more details, however, Obama jokingly demurred. “I think this is all classified information,” he told the morning talk show hosts.
As to whether his daughter’s prospective date would be overwhelmed picking up Malia at the White House, Obama insisted he’s “not too intimidating. I don’t think.”
