Barack Obama surprised Michelle with flowers on her book tour
Michelle Obama's Becomingbook tour has been quite the hit so far, but at Saturday night's Washington, D.C. stop a special guest brought the event to a whole other level.
Michelle's husband, former president Barack Obama, strolled onstage with flowers in-hand to surprise his wife and the entire Capital One Arena audience.
And since his former White House advisor Valerie Jarrett was moderating the conversation, he decided to stay and chat for a bit about the book and his love for his wife.

Michelle shared a video of Barack casually sauntering onstage on her Instagram Story, which looked a little something like the one below.

As was to be expected, members of the audience got their powerful scream on the moment Barack's feet touched the stage.
Kelyn Soong, a writer and editor for the Washington City Paper, managed to capture the former president's entire entrance and discussion on camera, and shared it to YouTube for all to enjoy.
At around 4:14, after Michelle discusses why it's so important to take the high road, Barack appears, comparing his entrance to "when Jay-Z comes out" at a Beyoncé concert. LOL. He then gives the audience a little taste of "Crazy in Love" to keep the energy going.
After things settled down a bit, Barack offered a bit of sass, which Michelle was rightfully nothaving, along with his version of Chapter 8 in Michelle's book.
In Chapter 8 of Becoming,Michelle recalls how she remembers the two first meeting and falling in love.
"It's true, I just kept on asking her out," Barack explained, admitting he even offered to quit his job so there wouldn't be any conflict of interest.
"The thing that I remember during that summer as we became friends, was she was one of a kind."
"Here's the main point I want to make: During that summer, even while she was pushing off and trying to set me up with some of her friends who I was not interested in at all..." Barack said. "The thing that I remember during that summer as we became friends, was she was one of a kind."
"I had that somebody who was that strong and that honest — somebody who I just felt was a rock, somebody who I knew at that point I would always be able to count on, and someone who that if she were the mother of my children I knew my children would turn out extraordinary," he went on.
And though, like all relationships, Barack and Michelle have had obstacles, he emphasized, "There's never been a point in which that core thing I saw ever wavered, where i was ever disappointed, or where I wasn’t completely in awe of her talent and gifts."
