Michelle & Barack Obama's daughter | Malia admits she was 'terrified' for rare red carpet appearance

The eldest daughter of former President and  First Lady Barack and Michelle Obama, 26,   grew up staying as far away from the spotlight  as possible as a first daughter can, however   since graduating college three years ago, she has  been carving her own path in the public eye.   She marked a milestone in that  journey this weekend, making her   first major red carpet appearance on her own. On Friday, September 6, Malia made a rare and   unexpected red carpet appearance at the Deauville  American film festival in northern France,   for its milestone 50th opening ceremony. For the special outing, the budding filmmaker   looked both radiant and edgy, rocking a virtually  make-up free look with her signature braids in a   light brown, reddish hue, plus she donned a plaid  Vivienne Westwoood corset with a mismatched but   coordinating skirt along with knee-high boots. On top of the rare appearance, she also had a   brief conversation with Paris Match, acknowledging  she has "never done anything like this."   "I'm so excited," she said, admitting: "So [I'm] a  little bit terrified, but mostly just excited."   She also made a quick note about her look,  hailing the late Vivienne Westwood as a   "queen," and though she also confessed she  doesn't "know as much about fashion," she   was "happy" to be wearing the "cool" look. As videos from her appearance circulated on   social media, fans were quick to gush over  getting to see more of her, with one writing:   "She looks just like her parents omg," as others  followed suit with: "She looks amazing," and:   "So good to see her outside!!!" as well  as: "She is giving supermodel vibes!"   Malia has been based in Los Angeles since  graduating from Harvard University in 2021,   and has worked on various film and television  projects, including her own film debut,   a short film titled The Heart, which premiered  at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.   She also previously worked as a writer on  Atlanta creator Donald Glover's series Swarm,   and he hailed her as "amazingly talented"  in an interview with Vanity Fair at the   time. "I feel like she's just somebody  who's gonna have really good things   coming soon," he shared, adding:  "Her writing style is great."   He even joked about her status as the former  president's daughter, telling the outlet:   "We can't be easy on her just because she's the  [former] president's daughter," though maintained:   "She's very down to earth, and cool.  So, it's not a problem at all."
