Though some Americans may feel relieved President Biden has opted to take a softer and more restrained approach to the press than his predecessor,not all of his allies are convinced such a strategy is working out, The New York Times reports.

Now nine months into his tenure as president, Biden has conducted approximately "a dozen one-on-one interviews with major print and television news outlets," the Times writes, a pace that falls decently behind that of former Presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama, each of whom completed over 50 and 100 one-on-one interviews within the same period, respectively.

That said, allies and strategists want Biden to make better use of his pulpit, "one of a president's most powerful tools of communication," rather than rely on "on fleeting, impromptu exchanges with White House reporters" to effectively message his policy objectives and goals, reports the Times.

"What they're missing is salesmanship," said veteran Democratic strategist James Carville. "Everybody wants to be a policy maven, and no one wants to go door to door and sell pots and pans."

Of course, there are risks to these things, but "high-profile interviews give you the opportunity to really get across key points that you want to make, that are important in building public support," added Scott McClellan, press secretary to former President George W. Bush.

"[Y]ou sacrifice part of the megaphone by not having the president do these interviews," further explained Jonathan Lemire, host of MSNBC's Way Too Early. "Every network would give him time if he asked for it," continued Democratic Party adviser Kurt Bardella.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki rejected the idea Biden is purposely avoiding the spotlight, the Times notes. But whatever's happening, McClellan said, the administration shouldn't wait "too much longer" to course correct.

When Mallika Sherawat Compared Herself With Former US President Barack Obama(Pic Credit: Instagram/mallikasherawat, barackobama)

Reema Lamba, better known as Mallika Sherawat, is well known for her bold onscreen attitude films like Khwahish and Murder. She is also one of the few stars who managed to cross over to Hollywood with films like Hisss (2010) and Politics of Love (2011). She once compared herself to former US president Barack Obama. Scroll down to know more.

The actress had the good fortune to meet the former US president twice- in 2016 and 2011 in her lifetime. The actress met the leader for the first time at a tea party in Los Angeles and she was quite ecstatic about the meet as well.

Mallika Sherawat also spoke about it during a conversation with the Times of Indias Prithwis Ganguly. Praising him, she said, He (Obama) is a thorough gentleman simple and intelligent. I even invited him for the premiere of my film Love, Barack which he gratefully accepted. In fact, I feel that my life is the same as Obamas. I do not come from a filmi family, nor do I have a Godfather. Im from Haryana, but I changed the rules of the industry with my work and so has Obama. I entered an industry dominated by ones who use their surname as a passport, yet I managed to make a name for myself. I think we both are changing the rules of the game in our own way.

Mallika Sherawatthen spoke about the criticism she faced for acting skills and the way she dressed. She said, This is what I also want to know. I am the only Indian actor to have met the President of the United States, the most powerful man on earth. That is something special, right? And still, people try to pull me down instead of celebrating the fact that an Indian has made it big. My obituaries have been written a number of times, but somehow I manage to resurrect myself. God has been kind.

Later in 2016, Mallika Sherawat tweeted a selfie of herself with Former US President Barack Obama, and they are all smiles for the camera. Sharing the picture, she wrote, Had the good fortune of meeting the one and only, the charismatic President Obama again.

Big news. Huge. Outside of Pardon My Take, if you were to ask me what the most important moment of my career has been it was probably self-publishing this ebook back in 2014. It gave me the confidence to know that as weird as my brain can be at times, that there are people out there that can identify with it. This book litraly paid my rent when SB Nation woudnt give me enough money to afford health care and groceries, and more importantly it made me believe in myself a little bit. At midnight tonight for the first time ever, you can buy it in a hard copy paperback edition.

If the truth sets you free, then reading Goodell vs. Obama will be a genuinely liberating experience. The takes are so hot they come with a warning label, and they burn plenty of bridges. This is a shame, because despite Goodells positive characterization, the NFL would clearly be better off with PFT Commenter in charge. Until that happens, though, our national pastime will continue to become our national asstime. And that really makes you think.

-Grantland dot com. those nerds really knew there shit IMO.

I wrote this ebook back in the year of my lord 2014 and it sold thousands of copys despite the fact that the PC Police tried to shadowban it. After going on "behind the blog" with KFC Ive heard from hundreds of you guys who wanted me to re-release it so here it is. For the first time ever you can buy a paperback of my ebook "Goodell Vs. Obama- The Battle For The Future Of The NFL."

PFT whats this story about?

Jerry Jones dick explodes and then Barack Obama tries to take over the team, turn them into a soccer team, and move them to Kenya. Roger Goodell, Jim Irsay, Pete Carrol, Michael Vick, Danny Woodhead,Joe Biden, Mike Ditka, and more all unite to try and stop him. Its based on a true story

PFT where can I buy it?

Barstool sports store. Supplies are extremeley limited. And by extremely limited I mean you should buy it now or else I will hate you forever.

PFT what happens when it sells out?

Great question. Once it sells out I will be launching the audiobook version of it. Featuring:

Big Cat, Stu Feiner, Frank the Tank, Feits, Nick, KB, Jeff D Lowe, Zah, Kate, Mintzy, Brandon Walker, Rone, Hank, KenJack, and many many many many more playing the various parts in the book. The great news is that i listed all those guys and gals as co-authors, and the New York Times monitors audiobook sales so theres a pretty decent chance that Frank The Tank will be able to claim that he is a New York Times best selling author after this.

Enjoy your thanksgiving and God bless.

Michelle Obama had a "blast" with friends during a night out on Broadway over the weekend, a theater source tells PEOPLE.

The former first lady, 57, caught the Sunday evening performance of Six, a musical about the wives of King Henry VIII told with a pop-music twist.

The source says Obama was joined by some friends for the outing in New York City. "She said she had a blast."

Obama, dressed in black with a gold-embroidered jacket, and her pals "came in as the lights went down so it was kind of low-key," the source says, adding that she watched a post-curtain call "remix" from backstage before greeting the cast after the show.

Though Obama was there with friends, she was also thinking of her husband, former President Barack Obama, and their daughters, Malia, 23, and Sasha, 20.

According to the source, Mrs. Obama said "she was going to totally need to bring the girls back and she thinks her husband would love it."

Samantha Pauly, Courtney Mack, Adrianna Hicks, Anna Uzele, Brittney Mack and Mallory Maedke performed as pop-star versions of Henry's wives during Sunday's performance.

"Backstage, Michelle spent time with the entire cast. They all had individual moments and hugs with masks and then for the photo, all took their masks off," the source says.

As Obama and her friends left through the front door of the Brooks Atkinson Theatre, they were greeted by Spirit of America cheerleaders, who are in town ahead of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

They all went nuts, the source says. "It was unexpected, but Michelle was beyond nice to them amid their gasps and 'oh my gods.' "

Former President of the United States, Barack Obama, has revealed the details of his wild party days whilst living in the White House.

Tuning in via video call to the Graham Norton Show recently, Obama was joined by singer Bruce Springsteen to promote their new book Renegades: Born in the USA.

Host Norton asked the pair about the glory days of Obamas time as president, saying: It sounds like after the camera stopped rolling, the party continued at the White House.

Obama said: Well, what is true is we had some good parties at the White House.

Agreeing with him, Springsteen simply said, Woo while grinning.

Part of the reason for that, Obama said, was down to artists like Springsteen who were willing to play at the events.

It turns out, folks, if theyre at a good party, they dont want to go home, even when its the White House, he said.

As a result of this, their White House parties would continue until late.

People misbehaved in ways I wouldnt have expected under the portrait of George Washington and Martha Washington, the former president joked.

He clarified quickly with a big smile: Nothing illegal but yeah. Nothing that scandalous.

Norton then asked about guests, and whether anyone would ever turn down an invitation to party with the president.

Honestly no, Obama replied.

One of the most remarkable performances we had at the White House - he did technically turn us down the first time - and that was Prince.

Obama, who admitted that he got up on stage to dance with his daughter during the set, said that Stevie Wonder joined in too.

The former president also revealed that the party was merely two or three months before Prince passed away in April 2016, meaning that this performance at the White House was one of his last.

Upon hearing the story, Springsteen said: Thats incredible. That must have been unbelievable

Obama agreed, It was unbelievable. He could not have been better.
