Beyonce Reaches Michelle Obama

(CBS News) Beyonce is front and center in a new
video posted online by President Barack
Obama's re-election campaign, reading a letter
she wrote to first lady Michelle Obama.
In the letter, which was first posted as a
handwritten note on Beyonce's official blog back in
April, the Grammy-winner praises Mrs. Obama as
"the ultimate example of a truly strong African-
American woman."
"She is a caring mother, she's a loving wife, while
at the same time, she is the first lady. No matter
the pressure, and the stress of being under the
microscope, she's humble, loving and sensitive,"
the letter continues.
Beyonce, who welcomed daughter Blue Ivy Carter
in January with husband Jay-Z, adds, "Michelle,
thank you so much for every single thing that you
do for us. I am proud to have my daughter grow up
in a world where she has people like you, to look up
to."
In the video, the singer explains, "I wrote a letter to
the first lady because I wanted her to know that I'm
very grateful for everything she's doing for our
country, and also for women around the world."
Mrs. Obama responded to the letter via Twitter
back in April:
In May, the first lady took daughters Sacha and
Malia to Beyonce's concert in Atlantic City, N.J. The
singer also performed during the inauguration
celebrations for the Obamas in January 2009,
singing "At Last" as the president and first lady
danced.
