Malia wants people to focus on her art and not her Obama heritage.
Gayle says people already know who Malia is, but it doesn’t matter anyway because Malia has an eye for film.
Gayle’s got high praise for Malia … telling us her stuff is “knockout” and not just because she was born an Obama.
Nepo babies are getting a negative stigma in Hollywood now, but Gayle’s saying Malia’s got the chops to make it on talent and merit alone.
What’s in a name?!?
