She was just 10 years old when her father was first elected President of the United States, but last night Malia Obama showed the world she’s not a little girl anymore.
Malia, now 14, looked every inch the grown-up lady – and the spitting image of her mother – as she took to the stage with her father to celebrate his re-election.
Barack praised Malia and her sister Sasha, 11, in his victory speech, saying he was extremely proud of the people they were becoming.
“Before our very eyes you’re growing up into two strong, smart, beautiful young women, just like your mum,” he said.
Barack and Malia celebrate his victory in Chicago last night.
Malia is nearly as tall as her father, and the image of her mother.
