FameOctober 25, 2019

Out of all the First Ladies of the United States, there is no doubt that Michelle Obama has earned a permanent place in history as being one of the most impactful ones. And the public agrees with this conclusion as well. According to a poll conducted by an online service called YouGov, aimed at generating a public response to highlight the most admired personalities on the planet, Michelle has emerged at the very top.

It was only a matter of time before Michelle Obama earned the title of being a woman that was most admired in the world.

Dominating the polls, Michelle dominated the polls to take first place among the most admired women in the world, an honor previously held by the one and only Angelina Jolie who emerged victorious last year and this year went down to third place, even losing out on second place now held by the legendary media mogul Oprah Winfrey. At fourth place now is the Queen of England, and on fifth is the iconic HeForShe campaigner Emma Watson.

Other Key Names

These top five names should surprise no one judging by the massive impact these women have had on the world this past year. But there are some names in the rest of the list which arguably should’ve made it to the top five, such as Nobel Prize winner Malala Yousafzai and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres.

Other names may seem surprising to some in the United States, but they have surely created waves in their part of the world. For example, there are many names belonging to the Indian film industry called Bollywood, such as actress Deepika Padukone who ranked 13^th on the list, followed by Priyanka Chopra at 14^th, and then Aishwarya Rai at 16^th followed by Sushmita Sen at 17^th.

Bollywood actresses Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone, who have also worked in Hollywood, also made it on the list.

Two other First Ladies of the United States also made it on the list, one being Hilary Clinton on 8^th place, who was the First Lady when her husband Bill Clinton was President of the US and also the Democratic Party’s candidate for Presidency in the last US general elections, and the other one being the current FLOTUS Melania Trump who ranked on number 19^th.

What Makes Michelle Obama So Great?

Apart from the fact that Michelle created history by becoming the first black woman to enter the White House as a First Lady, her journey up to that point is nothing short of phenomenal. Michelle has a sparkling academic background, having graduated from top-tier universities such as Princeton and Harvard.

But it is her work both as First Lady and leaving the White House in 2016 that has truly shone through and made her the most admirable woman in the world right now. She is recognized as a role model for all women regardless of their background, and advocates to create awareness for some very pressing issues in modern-day society such as poverty, education, and also the provision of proper nutrition to at-risk communities.

In addition to all her public service, Michelle has also built a happy family at home.

Michelle is also a key advocate of maintaining a healthy physical self through adequate workouts combined with a healthy diet. She has also raised two beautiful and responsible daughters, all the while maintaining a sleek sense of style that has earned the honor of being a fashion icon.
