Michelle Obama will not reveal who or what she'll be wearing on Inauguration Day, one of her aides, who insisted on anonymity, told The Washington Times. But we do know one thing Michelle Obama prolly won't be wearing when her husband officially becomes America's 44th president: pantyhose.

In a list of trivia BettyConfidential collected about the First Lady-Elect, Fact #21 states that Michelle "hates pantyhose -- too painful." With the weather in D.C. skedded to be a just-above-freezing 36 degrees according to The Weather Channel, we wonder if she's planning to wear thermals under an Inaugural Jumpsuit.

I can't believe the first lady elect will not wear a dress. Pants are sooooooo common. Class would be a beautiful dress, or a coat-matching dress. A jump suit???Pants??? How unprofessional and common. Doesn't she have a person who could dress her and clue her in on what to wear?? My opinion of her has just gone down-hill. How can you strut i n a pair of pants???? How unbeocmning Addy

...it's going to be 36 degrees. Would YOU want to stand outside for God only knows how long in a dress? God forbid someone should sacrifice a little style to be warm. Heavens!

I don't personally blame her for not wanting to wear pantyhose. I hate them too. If I were her, I would rather go out to the inauguration in jeans and a t-shirt.

Rock it, Michelle.

In response to naj, no one said she wouldn't wear a dress, just not panty hose.
