As a new fifth grade graduate, Malia Obama may have the resume to appear on Fox game show “Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?” but she won’t be heading to the show any time soon.
The New York Post reported on Thursday that the 10-year-old First Daughter had been invited to appear on the show as one of the kids who sits in the classroom, but that she’d been unable to accept due to her school schedule.
“Fifth Grader” show producers confirmed to Access Hollwood on Thursday that they’d made an invitation to her and she had politely declined.
However, White House reps told Access that they had no knowledge of such an invitation.
While Malia won’t be appearing on “Fifth Grader,” she’ll have a bigger challenge ahead of her this fall — sixth grade.
