Stars come out for Michelle Obama's birthday party

 The Obamas  probably slept late on  Sunday.

They were up pretty late celebrating Michelle Obama's 50th birthday.

Family and friends departed the gathering about 2 a.m.

Stars like former NBA superstar Magic Johnson, singer Smokey Robinson, actor Samuel L. Jackson and others were in attendance.

Several people said Beyonce brought the house down with several of her hit songs.

Michelle Obama's invitations caused a little controversy last week when it was revealed they said only drinks and light snacks would be served.

The food choices didn't appear to bother any of those who went. They mostly wanted to talk about how great the 50-year-old first lady looked, and how much in love President Obama is with his wife.

Guests said Michelle Obama wore red and black, and looked stunning.
