Sports Illustrated showed up at Michelle Obama's Let's Move! event in Chicago to photograph her and a group of famous athletes for their cover. I'm pretty sure that will make First Lady Michelle to be the first First Lady to ever grace the front of the iconic magazine.
Michelle Obama is going all out to help kids get healthy, and she brought in the heavyweights — figuratively, not literally of course — to help her do just that. Dominque, Gabby, Allyson, Bob, Bo, Colin, Sarah, Paul, Serena, and Ashton are some of America's best athletes and they, along with the First Lady, put their dance shoes on to encourage kids to keep moving.
