Last Tuesday President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama hosted their first state dinner, which honored Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his wife, Gursharan Kaur. The event was filled with pomp and pageantry as Washington's elite meshed with Hollywood's elite. Invited guests included Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, as well as Steven Spielberg, Katie Couric, Brian Williams, M. Night Shyamalan and Alfre Woodard. But it was reality television hopeful Michaele Salahi and her husband Tareq who caused the biggest stir at the event – because they weren't supposed to be there.
While some say the matter is unimportant fluff because at no time was anyone in danger, others see this is a serious breach of security as Tareq and Michaele Salahi not only crashed a White House event, they rubbed elbows with everyone from celebrities to the President himself.
