Oh la la! Carla Sarkozys up to Michelle O for a kiss
Oh la la! Carla Sarkozys up to Michelle O for a kiss

She was hailed the new Jackie Onassis and wowed all she met on her inaugural tour. Then along came Michelle Obama.

Last April Carla Bruni, the other half – well, three-quarters – of French President Nicolas Sarkozy, was crowned the world’s most glamorous First Lady.

But a year on, a new contestant has entered the First Wives Club beauty pageant and Carla seems less than enchanted.

As these pictures show, when Michelle, 45, left Britain for France and Germany this week she found that, unlike Sarah Brown, Carla’s welcome was more cordial than cosy.

12. Oh, I do,
and I have loved as many of you as I've had time for, but, still, there are moments like this one when even I - one who simply appreciates all that men are - can only sigh...............................

5. First time I "air kissed" someone's cheek in France, no one told me to NOT kiss the cheek
I was very embarrassed at the person pulling back and giving me a funny look.

9. If you are ever in France again and not know what to do, just lean forward a little.
They will show you how to do the proper greeting, then you can do it. Of course, I think I'm preaching to the choir here. I'm assuming you've been to France several times since then.

14. Mais oui. Have a sib doing the bicultural thing with family there
I have been corrected on several things, for instance how your Correctly pronounce the money "Euro". That was by a tweener with much aghastdom.

'Tis funny, going from rural WA to rural France, similarities and differences. Just not a big city person here. I enjoy visiting the cities, art museums, etc, but not to live.

It surely is nice to see the Americans and French strengthening their relationships, and I for one encourage this type of cooperation everywhere.

19. Gosh, who will win the first lady beauty contest???!!!
Inquiring minds want to know!!

Because everybody knows that when two attractive women get together, the fur flies and the little green monster rears it's ugly head.

But, you know, that's a dame, they're all the same.:puke:
