Sasha Obama Was M.I.A From Her Father’s Farewell Speech, But For Good Reason
One would assume if your father is leader of the free world you’d be allowed to skip school once in a while. One would also assume if your father is giving his final address to the nation as Commander-In-Chief, that would be a good enough excuse to stay out a little late on a school night. But if your parents are Barack and Michelle Obama, sorry Sasha, your studies come first.
During President Obama’s farewell address in Chicago Tuesday night, (Jan. 10) it wasn’t lost upon viewers the youngest Obama wasn’t in attendance. Pretty soon, the hashtag #WhereIsSasha began to trend.
White House officials caught wind of it, and notified outlets the 15-year-old stayed behind in D.C. to study for an exam she has today. (Jan.11) The move, considered by many to be a demonstration of good parenting, didn’t stop Twitter from inserting a few jokes about Sasha’s absence.
Ha! Good luck on your exam, Sasha, but we’re pretty sure you’re going to kill it.
