Sasha Obama was spotted flashing her tattoo as she headed to class in Los Angeles on Monday – just a few days after her older sister, Malia, was seen grabbing lunch.
The 21-year-old daughter of former President Barack Obama soaked up the sun in a bright purple and pink crop top and a knee-length patterned skirt as she strolled through the University of Southern California’s campus.
Sasha’s long dark hair was pulled back in a side braid, and her tank top revealed the hot air balloon tattoo on the back of her arm.
When she was 11, her father hilariously tried to dissuade her and her sister from rebelling and getting a tattoo by promising to get the same one.

‘What we’ve said is, “If you guys ever decided you’re going to get a tattoo, then mommy and me will get the exact same tattoo, in the same place. And we’ll go on YouTube and show it off as a family tattoo,”‘ the president joked in 2013.
However, nearly a decade later, it seems doubtful that her parents are now rocking matching ink.
Sasha looked like any other college student on Monday as she made her way to class with tote bags slung over her shoulder and a metal water bottle in her hand.
She also appeared to be holding onto a vape, which she has been seen with before.
Former President Obama recalled being a heavy smoker in his 2020 memoir, ‘A Promised Land,’ admitting that he would sometimes smoke eight, nine, or ten cigarettes a day during his presidency.
Her older sister, Malia, 24, has also been seen smoking on numerous occasions over the years.
Sasha’s fingers were covered with rings, and her long nails were perfectly manicured per usual. She topped off her casual classroom look with a pair of colorful Nike sneakers.
She has been living in Los Angeles along with Malia after transferring from the University of Michigan to USC to finish college.

Sasha’s trip to class comes just a few days after her older sister was seen grabbing lunch at the Mediterranean eatery CAVA on Saturday.
Malia looked effortlessly chic in a denim overall dress, a blue T-shirt, and a pair of $400 Marc Jacobs combat boots that are no longer available.
The Harvard graduate, who is currently working on Donald Glover’s upcoming Amazon show, seemed somber as she exited the customizable salad chain with her to-go order in hand.
Malia’s long, braided hair was pulled half up with tendrils framing her face, and she wore sunglasses to shield her eyes from the LA sun.

The week before, Malia and Sasha were seen grabbing dinner with their father on Saturday, September 25.
Barack jetted to the West Coast to pay his daughters a visit, and the trio ate at the pricey sushi restaurant Hamasaku, where eight-piece sushi rolls cost $50 and specialty rolls go for more than $20 each.
Hamasaku boasts a fusion of traditional Japanese sushi with a taste of California and features a plethora of dishes containing salmon, lobster, crab, tuna, yellowtail, and other seafood.
Sasha was also seen on campus with her hair down in loose waves on the same day

While Barack dined with his daughters, his wife, former First Lady Michelle Obama, 58, was across the country in Seneca Falls, New York, being inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame.
It’s unclear if Barack is still in California. The couple celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary on Monday, and they both shared gushing tributes to each other to commemorate three full decades of marriage.
‘Miche,’ Barack wrote in a heartfelt message to his wife. ‘After 30 years, I’m not sure why you look exactly the same and I don’t.
‘I do know that I won the lottery that day – that I couldn’t have asked for a better life partner. Happy anniversary, sweetheart!’

Michelle also took to Instagram to share a loving note to her husband, in which she called their relationship an ‘adventure.’
‘Happy anniversary to the man I love,’ she gushed. ‘These last 30 years have been an adventure, and I’m grateful to have you by my side. Here’s to a lifetime together. I love you, @BarakObama.’
Malia was the first Obama daughter to move to Los Angeles after graduating from Harvard University with the goal of becoming a screenwriter.
In March, Donald revealed that he had given Malia her first job as a writer on his new series, which is reportedly about ‘a Beyoncé-type character,’ with the actor calling her ‘amazingly talented’ and ‘really focused’ at the time.
‘She’s just like, an amazingly talented person,’ Donald, 38, who is also known by his stage name Childish Gambino, told Vanity Fair at the time. ‘She’s really focused, and she’s working really hard.’
He did not share how Malia – who previously interned on Lena Dunham’s HBO series Girls in 2015 and at The Weinstein Company in 2017 – landed the job after she graduated from college, but he added that he believed she has a promising future in the industry.

As for Sasha, she transferred to the University of Southern California from the University of Michigan earlier this year.
Both of Michelle and Barack’s daughters appear to be in relationships at the moment – DailyMail.com exclusively revealed in April that Sasha was dating Clifton Powell Jr., 24, who is the son of Ray actor Clifton Powell.
Clifton Jr. and Sasha are understood to have met after she relocated to California, and it appears that he is already close with the family – as he has been seen hanging out with Malia a few times in recent months.
Malia, on the other hand, is currently in a relationship with Ethiopian DJ Dawit Eklund. They were first linked on July 26, when the two were caught grabbing takeout food together, and since then, they have been pictured side-by-side on numerous occasions.
Dawit, 33, is the son of retired State Department officer Jon Eklund, 72, who worked at several US embassies in Africa and his Ethiopian wife Yeshi, 66.

In April, Sasha and Malia’s mother, Michelle, opened up about how both of her daughters are all grown up during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
Ellen, 64, Michelle how Sasha and Malia had first visited the show when they were little girls who wanted to see the Jonas Brothers. But over a decade later, they’ve graduated from boybands to boyfriends.
‘Now they’re bringing grown men home,’ Michelle said. ‘Now they have boyfriends and real lives and all that stuff. They have grown up right before our very eyes and they are doing well.’
While Mrs. Obama gushed about the ‘amazing young women’ her daughters have become – ‘Women, I know! Scary,’ she said – and divulged that they are dating, she was much more discreet about the details of their love lives.
