"If I had some gift, I'd be Beyonce. I'd be some great singer. The power of music, being able to play an instrument… It looks like musicians just have the most fun," Mrs. Obama confessed to People.

The First Lady revealed that when her husband is finished serving the country, she wants to dedicate time to finally take the piano lessons she ceased in 7th grade.

The couple hopes to instill a creative itch in their daughters' education. "Barack and I talked about how important it is for the girls to embrace [math and science] as well as the arts," she said of the academic goals they've set.
