WAX ON...

First it was President Obama in wax and now we have the First Lady in wax (picture Left). The 45-year-old fashionista's wax figure was unveiled at Madame Tussauds in DC on Tuesday. Being married to the Prez requires a tough skin and she is as tough as they come.

You gotta love First Lady Michelle Obama. In honor of Womans History Month she is taking some positive black women around to DC schools to give these girls much needed role models to look up to. The A-list mentors includes Alicia Keys, astronaut Mae Jamison, Tracee Ellis Ross, Kerry Washington, Alfre Woodard, Debra Lee and Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast Dominique Dawes to name a few. DLR would like to give props to the First Lady and the A-listers that are taking part of this mission.

Side note: I used to love me some damn Dominique Dawes...you couldnt tell me shyt!
