Obama daughter sparks concerns

Malia Ann Obama’s friends are urging her to roll back her partying and focus on her ambitions if she wants a successful career in the entertainment industry, we can report.

Time to buckle down

“Malia’s been working in Hollywood since she was a college student and, thanks to her family’s high profile, she’s gotten more experience than your average twenty-something TV writer-producer,” claimed an insider. “She’s also met a lot of the industry’s biggest players. The problem is how much of her life she still devotes to partying and socializing, when now is the time she should be buckling down and showing people what she’s really capable of.”

Malia takes Hollywood

Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama are reportedly concerned about daughter Malia Ann’s partying and spending habits. By:

According to the insider, Malia “loves living and working in Hollywood, but it’s the lifestyle she’s become enamored with, not the grind and the inevitable rejection that comes with a serious writing career.” The former first daughter, 27, who now goes by Malia Ann, allegedly developed a reputation as a partier as far back as her freshman year at Harvard, and pals say not much has changed. Her spending habits are also a major cause for concern for her parents, former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama. Sources claim she loves Beverly Hills shopping sprees, eating at expensive restaurants and splurging on spa and salon visits.

Malia’s skills

Donald Glover produced Malia Ann’s directorial debut, The Heart, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2024. By:

Still, she’s managed to snag some cushy gigs. Pals were green with envy when her family connections helped her land jobs as a production assistant on Halle Berry’s sci-fi drama Extant and then as a writer on Donald Glover’s series Swarm, her first major TV project. “She’s an incredible writer,” gushed Swarm co-creator Janine Nabers. Glover was so impressed, he produced her directorial debut, The Heart, a short film that screened at the Sundance Film Festival in 2024.

‘Peers are passing her by’

Insiders claimed Malia Ann is falling behind her peers despite her industry connections and opportunities her family name has provided. By:

But a source said Malia still seems more than content to coast on her family name. “It’s been a long time since she was a student and a lot of her classmates and peers are passing her by, without a fraction of her name recognition,” said a source. “It’s just sad that she’s taking so much longer to mature as an artist than anybody expected.”
