The first lady and TBS late-night host engaged in a question-and-answer session with one another for People magazine in a story published Tuesday.
When O’Brien inquires whether Obama would like to have a little fun with the “cool military hardware” she’s surrounded by and take a “jet for a ride or a tank for a spin,” she offers a tongue-in-cheek response: “Absolutely not. It would be inappropriate for a first lady to even think about something like that. It would be even more inappropriate for her to ask Secret Service about it every single day for nearly seven years.
“And of course, it would be totally out of line for her to talk about it in a magazine,” Obama added. “So I'm sticking with ‘absolutely not.’ ”
The executive mansion resident then asks the ginger-hued “Conan” host about his hair-care routine during their trip.
“There's an elite branch of the Department of Defense that's been working for months on maintaining my pompadour in combat conditions,” quips O’Brien. “Let's just say billions have been spent and this may lead to a congressional inquiry.”
Obama touched down Monday in the Middle East as part of a weeklong trip to Qatar and Jordan to promote her “Let Girls Learn” global education initiative.
