So Malia Obama officially has the best summer job of all time…
At 16 years of age and with a father who's been the President of the United States for the last seven years, Malia Obama's upbringing has been far from normal.
Wherever she goes, be it to Chicago's Lollapalooza music festival, a Beyoncé concert or just out for a stroll with friends, the teenager has to have at least two Secret Service agents in her vicinity at all times. Very inconvenient if you're 16 years old and trying to impress boys.
One thing Malia's parents have allowed her to do to live a somewhat normal teenage life is to get a part-time summer job. Except, of course, this is no normal summer job… she's not working in her local Centra, we assure you.
The teenager is spending the next few weeks away from her home in Washington DC to work in New York as an intern on the set of HBO's Girls, according to TMZ. There are definitely a few perks to being the President's daughter…
Malia has been on set in Brooklyn all week, where Lena Dunham and co. are currently filming the show's fourth series.
The eldest Obama daughter obviously has an interest in TV production (or just in TV), as this is her second interning gig on the set of a show. Last summer she worked on Halle Berry's Extant in Los Angeles, where crew members told TMZ that she mainly went on coffee runs and stopped passers-by from accidentally walking on to the set.
It might not be the most glamourous of jobs, but we love that Malia's parents have encouraged her to work to get what she wants, rather than waiting for things to come her way.
