Malia Obama Attends Sundance Film Festival As A Part Of Weinstein Internship

Looks like former president Barrack Obama's eldest daughter Malia Obama has a clear vision of her future. The 18-year old graduated from high school last June and is on a gap year now before attending Harvard University.

A report on Quartz stated that Malia will be interning with the New York based The Weinstein Company-run by Harvey and Bob Weinstein. "Harvey Weinstein is an outspoken Democrat, who has hosted and fundraised for Barack Obama in the past," the report added.

The production banner has bankrolled prestigious projects like Golden Globe-nominated Lion and The Founder, Oscar-winner The King's Speech, The Fighter, and The Artist, among others. This isn't the first internship of Malia, earlier she has associated with HBO series "Girls" in 2015 and on Halle Berry's CBS show "Extant" before that.

According to a latest report on The Star, Malia attended the Sundance Film Festival as a part of her internship. "She was then spotted at a screening for the film Beach Rats, a drama about a Brooklyn teen who begins exploring his sexuality with older men. Although she may no longer be a first daughter, Malia's presence at the festival definitely didn't go unnoticed," the report revealed. It also published the picture of the teenager clade in a brown jacket looking at her friend's phone.

Before heading to Sundance, she spent her weekend with her family in Palm Springs. The former First Family took off to California after Donald Trump's inauguration on Friday. Then, Malia was off to Utah while the youngest scion Sasha would have taken off to DC to continue her schooling. Barrack and Michelle Obama are likely to take a much-needed break at the Caribbean island of Tortola.

More details on Malia's internship program with the production house has not been announced. She is expected to attend Harvard in the fall.
