Michelle Obama encourages early voting on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' After nearly four years as first lady, Michelle Obama is a seasoned veteran of the talk-show circuit. On Thursday she made her debut on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," where she displayed some of the flare for comedy she's cultivated through her many previous late-night appearances. As her husband did Wednesday on "The Tonight Show," Obama encouraged viewers to vote early in states where it's available, just as she and the president have already done. "We live in a country fortunately where they make sure voting is as easy as possible," she said. For those of you, like Kimmel, who are worried about somehow forgetting to vote on election day, Obama has a foolproof strategy in place: barging into your bedroom with a bullhorn --- and encouraging you to eat some carrots while she's at it. Watch the video above to see the plan in action. Elsewhere in the interview, Obama opened up about life inside the fishbowl of the White House. She admitted that, if she had a few hours to be an anonymous civilian once again, she'd love to walk to CVS, buy some toiletries -- with cash, mind you -- and then sit on a park bench and do some people-watching. But giving up these simple pleasures was worth it, Obama insisted. "Even when Barack talked about entering politics period, I was very hesitant, for the very same reasons -- your life is no longer your own," she said. But then I thought about the kind of person I wanted to lead the country. I felt that to deny him that right would be selfish. Obama's mundane fantasy, though it was almost certainly crafted to make her seem as down-to-earth as possible, was nevertheless revealing, serving as a reminder of the down-the-rabbit-hole experience of becoming first lady after years of being a busy working mom. Put it this way: When you find yourself daydreaming about doing errands, you know things have gotten weird. You can watch the complete interview here.
