First Washington, DC, and now Hollywood, CA? That’s the path Barack and Michelle Obama want to take, according to an insider!
“They do see a natural path into show business for themselves — Obama sees himself as the next Larry King,” a source told exclusively.
According to the insider, the Obamas’ first step toward the silver screen may be a guest appearance on the hit show This Is Us.
“NBC is doing everything to make this happen. They’ve only got four more episodes to film for this season, but producers want a surprise appearance from either Barack or Michelle,” the insider claimed.
