The mane mystery surrounding Michelle Obama Baldgate 2015 might be solved: the first lady’s hair was reportedly just pulled back during her appearance on “Jeopardy!”
Viewers of the long-running quiz show went wild on social media on Tuesday, when Obama popped up on “Jeopardy!” to present clues in a healthy cooking category.

While the White House didn’t return ITK’s repeated requests for comment, a spokeswoman for the first lady confirmed to the New York Daily News on Wednesday that Obama had pulled her hair back for the taping. But no telling if word from the spokeswoman will subdue the follicle frenzy created by Obama’s “Jeopardy!” cameo.
A “Jeopardy!” rep didn’t get back to us about the hair-raising snafu.
