Is Michelle Obama becoming more famous than her husband?

As the First Lady's fame grows, is she in danger of eclipsing Barack Obama?

Michelle Obama seems to be in the news almost as much as her husband at the moment.

After her over-familiar faux pas with the Queen at the G20 a few weeks ago, the First Lady has been criticised again this week, this time for wearing a pair of trainers worth over £300 while visiting poor children at a food bank in Washington.

What do you think? Is Michelle Obama in danger of overshadowing Barack's work as President?

Should the First Lady take more of a back seat, or are the media to blame for creating headlines out of trivial matters?

Does it really matter what Michelle Obama wears or how she behaves?
