Ellen DeGeneres and Michelle Obama both made us laugh on Monday, when Ellen revealed the first lady's golden prom dress. "That split was a little high. I don't know if I'd let my kids go out with a split that high," Mrs. O said. "So let's not show this to Sasha and Malia."

We'd have to agree -- that dress was a little racy for prom, especially back in 1982! But Ellen also made us giggle when she pointed out the first lady's choice of chair. "Were you shopping at Pier 1 or something?" Ellen joked. The first lady, who was visiting military families in Jacksonville, Fla., gamely responded: "You've never done the wicker chair shot? It's standard." So ... do you think Michelle's "split" (slit?) was too high for prom? Or totally appropriate? PS: Ellen's "tablecloth" dress was pretty ridiculous, too!

Dear Soda Head,

No one cares about the gossipy questions on here, so I ask you; why do you continue to post them? It has been said plenty of times by plenty of members. Could you please stop?

Sincerely,

Subfusc

Yes a crotch high dress is very disturbing on a teenager. She must have been a loose girl in high school.

If she moved just wrong that slit would have given everyone on that side of her a free view of her down-stairs. :-P There's no way I'd let my daughter go out in anything with a slit anywhere close to that high.

I ACTUALLY DON'T HATE OBAMA....... WHAT I HATE IS WHAT HE IS DOING TO THE COUNTRY I LOVE

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE THERE IS A RIGHTEOUS ANGER AND A RESOLVE AS SO DID THE FOUNDING FATHERS DID TO THE BRITISH.

No it's not hate. It is telling the truth and l;iberals hate it because they were always too lazy to research and find out the truth on their own.
