I am still holding out for Aisha Tyler to play Michelle Obama on Saturday Night Live, but Cityfile, a site that follows influential New Yorkers, has found an interesting Washingtontonian that could do the job - if she were a comedienne that is. Sheena Harrell (right) is a 25-year-old Christian motivational speaker who moonlights as a Michelle Obama lookalike.
I think she will probably make a decent living in the next 4-8 years. What do you think?

@GreenLadyHere - Good to see you here!
@WeShallOvercomeInCouture - I agree!
She's the closest I've seen so far.

She is a very good match and I agree with the Aisha Tyler pick for SNL. I love Maya Rudolph, but don't think she can pull it off. Her Oprah was not very good either.

Wow I had to look twice, even thrice because I just assumed it was Michelle and Barack (looking a little younger)! This woman could make a fortune as a look-a-like lol
