Aisha Tyler was mistaken for Sasha Obama in a photo with Beyoncé and Jay-Z, and although she cleared up the error, she is not mad at all.
Aisha Tyler is well known as a former co-host of “The Talk”. A photo of Jayonce was captured during a date night at Hollywood’s Mother Wolf restaurant when Aisha was captured walking past the tables.
The Daily Mail Uk posted an article about the date night, referring to Aisha Tyler as Sasha Obama. Tyler took to Twitter and retweeted the photo that has since been taken down from “The Daily Mail.”
“Dear @DailyMailUK: I VERY much appreciate you mistaking me for the lovely 20-year-old Sasha Obama. I’ll assume that was due to my buoyant, youthful appearance & not just messy journalism.”
She continued by following up with a post about meeting and seeing Beyoncé and Jay-Z. “Regardless, it was fantastic to see the legendary @Beyonce & Jay-Z at dinner. They were dazzling and gracious (especially to my friend @JarettSays, just out of frame) & the meal at #motherwolfla was truly spectacular. Can’t wait to go back!” Tyler posted.
We did a side-by-side comparison. Do you see a resemblance in Aisha Tyler and Sasha Obama?
People are already giving their opinion.
One person commented on the height difference. “Omg I didn’t realize that was you, but I was like wow Sasha got really tall.”
In the past, Tyler has opened up about her appearance, her height specifically. She can find humor in so much and has been open-hearted as well as witty when engaging with journalists.
“People remark on my height but I’ve been this tall since, I was like 5 foot 8 inches in the third grade,” Tyler continued, “I’m just a giant from a very young age and I was also the only Black kid in my school.” She mentioned that she was also the only “poor kid” and that she grew up on an ashram for a while because her parents were meditation transcendentalists.
It’s clear that her humor has been helpful to her personally and helps now that she has been in the entertainment industry for a couple of decades at this point.
“I’m…incredibly self-deprecating, which also comes from kind of being a little bit of a loner,” Tyler said.
