Michelle Obama is letting loose in the wake of President Donald Trump’s second term.
In a video posted to her official Instagram account, the “Becoming” author practiced her dance moves to 803Fresh’s viral song, “Boots on the Ground (Where Them Fans At)” before joining Beyoncé’s mom Tina Knowles for a book talk.
“I had so much fun talking with @MsTinaKnowles last week about her memoir, Matriarch,” she wrote in her post May 9. “This Mother’s Day weekend, I hope you’ll check out this very special episode of @IMOpodcasts now on YouTube at the link in my bio or wherever you get your podcasts.”

On April 30, the former first lady helped the fashion designer kick off nine-city book tour, “Matriarch: An Evening with Tina Knowles, Family and Friends” at the MGM National Harbor Hotel and Casino in the Washington D.C. area.
The evening ended with the duo dancing to “Boots on the Ground.”
The Knowles mother’s memoir “Matriarch” follows her rise from girl growing up in Galveston, Texas to mom of Beyoncé, Solange Knowles and “bonus daughter” Kelly Rowland who is recognized around the world.

Michelle Obama becoming media mogul in post-White House life
In recent months, as Trump landed in the White House once again, the former first lady has reintroduced herself with a relaxed persona as the co-host of buzzy new podcast “IMO” alongside brother Craig Robinson.

In April, during a conversation with Robinson and Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson, the “Becoming” on Netflix star again addressed viral rumors she was divorcing former President Barack Obama by skipping the inaugural ceremony.
“My decision to skip the inauguration — or my decision to make choices at the beginning of this year that suited me — were met with such ridicule and criticism,” Obama explained during the episode. “People couldn’t believe that I was saying no for any other reason. They had to assume that my marriage was falling apart.”

Then, during a May 1 episode of “The Diary of a CEO” podcast with host Steven Bartlett, she confessed that “if I were having problems with my husband, everybody would know about it” adding that Robinson “would know it,” too. The “Becoming” author also said that “I would be problem solving in public,” adding, “I’m not a martyr.”
Robinson chimed in and said that if the pair were having marriage problems, “I’d be doing a podcast with (Barack Obama).”
