Michelle Obama Moves Eddie Levert to Tears at Event

In a heartwarming encounter, Eddie Levert, the lead singer of The O’Jays, met former First Lady Michelle Obama during a recent event where he was honored with a legacy award. The 82-year-old singer had long dreamed of meeting Obama, and the surprise left him emotional. An observer noted that the moment was touching, as Obama took the time to acknowledge Levert’s contributions and even posed for photos with his wife and daughter. The meeting took place at a gathering hosted by Bernard Chiu at the HarborView Hotel, where Levert expressed his admiration for Obama, jokingly referring to her as his "girl crush." Sources indicated that the experience was profoundly special for Levert, who continued to reflect on the encounter the following day, highlighting the impact it had on him. The event, held at the historic Tabernacle in Oak Bluffs, was organized by James Hester and Marvet Britto. While Obama’s presence went largely unnoticed by many attendees, those who recognized her were appreciative of her participation in the community event. In a political twist, former Attorney General Eric Holder also drew attention when he took the stage, receiving enthusiastic applause. His remarks hinted at the political landscape, with Holder suggesting that Vice President Kamala Harris could be a future presidential candidate, further energizing the audience.
