Spain’s Goth First Daughters Embarrass, Embarrassed By Dad
Here’s Barack and Michelle Obama with Spanish Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero and his family. The State Department uploaded it to Flickr. (What an unlikely sentence!) Whoops — no one in Spain has ever seen Zapatero’s Goth daughters before!
According to Zapatero, Spanish law allows him to prevent the Spanish media from running any photographs of his 16 and 13-year-old daughters Laura and Alba. For their privacy, see. And because maybe it would be considered weird for the PM to have goth daughters, but it totally shouldn’t be. It is a natural part of life, becoming a teenaged goth.

Well… these babes are cool, and a little bit weird, but totally normal.
This is the most adorable culture clash I’ve ever seen.
Do you think the whole family habitually dress in jet black or did mum and dad do it specially to make the kids look less conspicuous?
Wearing combat boots to meet a world leader?? I question the judgement of the parents to let their children show up at the white house dressed up for Halloween in September!
I’m not bothered by their clothes as much as I am by their complete lack of posture. I am by far not an Obama fan; however, if I were attending a political function with my government head of a father, I believe I would at least use my spine and not drag my head as if I were
a sad pup.
The one on the right scares the hell out of me just looking at the picture! How Obama can stand next to that with a smile on his face is beyond me. If I was in his spot I’d be more concerned about getting a knife stuck in me. Bet she wears burlap underwear too. LOL
Cool! Must invoke the song “Pictures of You” by The Cure. So appropriate. haha
There’s probably a law there because half of guys in Spain would be potential registered offenders in America.
