Michelle Obama may be the high-profile wife of the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, but it's only recently that daughter Malia Ann started buying into the notion that mom's a celebrity. So, what finally swayed the skeptical 10-year-old? Michelle Obama's appearance in PEOPLE. "I'm like, 'Oh Mommy! You're in this!' I've never seen Mommy in there," Malia Ann tells Maria Menounos in this interview for Access Hollywood. "I usually see people like Angelina Jolie ... real important people."
