But not for the event you're thinking.

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle have been invited to stay at England's most famous residence, and indeed the Obamas will have a sleepover with the Queen in spring. It's not for the April 29 royal wedding, however! Here's why the Obamas are snuggling up at Buckingham Palace.

Barack and Michelle Obama are almost certain to make an appearance at Prince William's wedding to Kate Middleton in London on April 29. While the Obamas will be two of the highest-profile guests there, they're not so important that they'll camped out at Queenie's house!

Meanwhile, Michelle Obama has told reporters that she's not 100% sure she and the President will be attending the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Meanwhile we're hearing that a teenager in Mexico is on a hunger strike in demand for a ticket to the royal wedding! Gotta run for office if you want into this party, pal!
