Hooray! Michelle Obama's coming to New York! Hooray! She is going to attend the Time 100 Party, which is kind of lame, but still.

Presumably she actually wanted to go to the Met Costume Gala but was forced to settle for the more plebeian Time function. But now there is exactly one reason to attend! Seeing our beloved First Lady may help you get through the mugging of emcee Jimmy Fallon, who is taking any microphone offered him these days. (He will also be at the Webbies. The Webbies! That's even more embarrassing than attending the damn Ellies. Which Fallon hosted.)
