"Fifty shades of great! First Lady Michelle Obama celebrated a milestone birthday -- the big 5-0 -- on Friday, Jan. 17, and promptly took to Twitter to show off her brand-new ID card from the American Association of Retired Persons.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Excited to join Barack in the 50+ club today...check out my @AARP card!&amp;quot; President Obama&amp;apos;s wife captioned a photo of herself holding the little piece of plastic. (The Commander-in-Chief is 52; he&amp;apos;ll turn 53 in August.)\r\n\r\nLast year on her birthday, the First Lady unveiled her official @FLOTUS Twitter account and debuted a much-talked-about haircut -- with bangs! She later joked that the new &amp;apos;do was her &amp;quot;midlife crisis.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;quot;I couldn&amp;apos;t get a sports car, they won&amp;apos;t let me bungee jump -- so instead, I cut my bangs!&amp;quot; she quipped in a Skype interview with Rachael Ray.\r\n\r\nSpeaking about aging in an interview with Prevention back in 2012, the mother of two confessed, &amp;quot;Women are definitely under a lot of pressure, but I think it&amp;apos;s important to remember that to look good, you have to feel good. I look at my mom at 74 and see how beautiful she looks and how wonderful she is with our daughters and with me and my husband -- and I want that for myself when I&amp;apos;m her age.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
