Obama has been a health advocate during her time in the White House with her husband, President Barack Obama. In 2009, she started the "Let's Move Campaign," an "ambitious national goal of solving the challenge of childhood obesity within a generation so that children born today will reach adulthood at a healthy weight and unveiled a nationwide campaign," according to a White House press release.

Superstar Beyonce even teamed up with Michelle Obama in 2011 to promote the campaign's mission to fight childhood obesity. She made a new music video to support the movement, dancing in a school cafeteria with a group of children as a form of working out. Notable celebrities such as Ellen DeGeneres and Scarlett Johansson have also lent a hand to help solve the problem of obesity in America.
