Yesenia Herrera was standing¹ in front of the first family at Soldier Field when she whipped out her cell phone and took a selfie（自拍照） - capturing Mrs Obama and her youngest daughter in the background.

 

Michelle, who was in the city to hold a Democrat² fundraiser, and 13-year-old Sasha were also at the concert with Sasha's big sister, Malia, 16.

 

Herrera, a model from Chicago, then shared the image to Instagram - no doubt to the chagrin³ of Michelle Obama, who has previously⁴ complained about images of her daughters being shared.

 

The first lady had called a photo agency earlier this month after it shared pictures of Malia walking into a restaurant, arguing that her girls can only be photographed if they're with the president.

 

Mrs Obama had arrived in Chicago earlier on Thursday to help rake in money for Democrats⁵ at a fundraiser at the Waldorf Astoria, CBS2 reported. It was the first time she had visited her home town in a year.

 

She spoke⁶ before more than 100 people at the hotel and urged attendees to help support the mid-term elections.

 

'We need you to write the biggest, fattest check that you can possibly write,' she said in a 20-minute address, according to a transcript⁷ of her remarks provided by the White House.

 

Donations ranged from $500 to $20,000 each, according to CBS2.

 

'She had a message of hope,' supporter Linda Havlin told ABC7. 'That with the right sense of investment and opportunity, children can thrive - and should thrive and deserve to thrive.'
