>> INSIDER WIRE —Rumors have placed Michelle Obama on the March 2009 Vogue cover, and although a Vogue spokesman denied that there were any set plans back in early December, recent developments might indicate otherwise.  Yesterday morning, Annie Leibovitz was spotted entering the Hay-Adams Hotel, the Obama's current residence in Washington, DC.  Granted, it could have been a shoot for Vanity Fair, but maybe, just maybe, it wasn't — Vogue has been vocal about being "very interested" in working with Mrs. O, and Annie does have a history of doing covers for the magazine.
