Michelle Obama appeared on the latest episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where she and the host chatted via videocam about the first lady’s last visit to the show (where she beat Ellen in a push-up competition) and their respective prom pictures. Mrs. Obama says “that split was a little high” on her dress. The Huffington Post reports on the story:

This will come as a surprise to approximately no one, but Michelle Obama was a total babe in high school. Proof? Her prom pic, which she gamely revealed to Ellen DeGeneres during a taping of the TV host’s show.

In the episode that will air today, Ellen and Michelle chatted via videocam with a group of teenage girls whose parents are in the military. As is common with Ellen’s show guests, three of the girls were given a gift: a $250 gift card to J.C. Penney (Ellen’s store of choice) that they can use for their upcoming proms.
