Sasha Obama was spotted puffing on a vape after stepping out of a luxury gym in West Hollywood.

The 24-year-old, who is the youngest daughter of former president Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama, opted for an all-black athleisure ensemble for her workout on Thursday.

She flashed her midriff in the two-piece set, which consisted of a sports bra and leggings, but appeared to have changed her footwear post-exercise as she slipped into a pair of flip-flops that showcased her toe ring.

Sasha wore her brown tresses up in a high ponytail and had an oversized carryall slung over her shoulder.

As she left the gym in California, she carried her phone in one hand and her vape in the other before taking a few drags.

Sasha relocated to the West Coast in 2022 after she transferred to USC from the University of Michigan.

She graduated from the college with a degree in sociology in May 2023, as her famous parents cheered her on from the audience.

Both she and her sister, Malia Obama, have regularly been pictured puffing on vapes and cigarettes on numerous occasions – a habit they may have picked up from their father.

Obama began smoking as a teenager and he famously promised Michelle that he would stop before he campaigned for president.

He previously admitted to smoking up to ten cigarettes a day and has been very honest about his struggle to quit over the years.

In 2009, he admitted during a press conference, ‘As a former smoker, I constantly struggle with it.

‘Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am I a daily smoker or a constant smoker? No. I don’t do it in front of my kids. I don’t do it in front of my family.

‘And, you know, I would say that I am 95 per cent cured, but there are times where I mess up.’

In his 2020 memoir, A Promised Land, he credited his eldest daughter, Malia, with helping him to quit, writing that seeing her ‘frown’ at him after she ‘smelled it on his breath’ made him determined to stop.

While Michelle does not speak about her daughters too often, she did mention them recently when appearing on an episode of Alex Cooper’s hit podcast, Call Her Daddy, in January.

Speaking to Cooper, Michelle shared the one question that she would never ask her daughters, as she warned other moms about how dangerous it could be.

The author explained that she often feels the urge to ask them, ‘Are you dating anyone?’

However, she explained that she feels the inquiry sends a ‘subliminal message’ to young women and adds ‘pressure’ on them to find a partner.

‘I have two beautiful daughters. And, you know, you find yourself slipping up and going, ‘Are you dating anyone?” she explained.

‘But it’s like, let me not make that the first question or the second question, or a question at all.’

Michelle explained that she often reminds her ‘girl group’ of the dangers lurking behind the seemingly innocent question.

‘What are our own insecurities as mothers that we’re like, ‘Well, you seem happy, and you’re on a track, but do you have a boyfriend?” she questioned.

She explained that there is already so much ‘social pressure’ put on young women and men, so parents have to be careful not to add to it.

‘You see everybody getting married. So I think we have to be mindful of the way we craft questions, not just to our daughters but to our sons,’ she concluded.

‘How we talk about what happiness is and we have to work hard to separate our fears and insecurities as parents, we have to separate that from our kids.’
