奧巴馬夫婦接受奧普拉采訪 互比圣誕禮物

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama sit down with Oprah Winfrey for the "White House Christmas Special," a less rigid interview than the President's "60 Minutes" sitdown.

The White House may be bedecked with baubles and awash with Christmas cheer, but its most famous resident appears a tad disgruntled with Santa.

When it comes to gifts, "I give nicer stuff than I get," President Barack Obama said half-jokingly in an interview aired on ABC television Sunday.

Quizzed about Christmas-time giving by Oprah Winfrey -- a close friend and backer from his hometown of Chicago -- Obama's candidness prompted a nudge from his co-interviewee, First Lady Michelle Obama.

"No way!" she shot back, "I gave you good gifts last year."

But Obama ceded little ground: "Absolutely -- aw, come on please," he said pointing to a double-stranded pearl necklace that was a gift for their wedding anniversary.

"Who gave you this?" he asked with a grin.

Michelle Obama may not be alone in questioning the president's claim to gift-giving greatness.

The 48-year-old was earlier criticized when he presented British Prime Minister Gordon Brown a DVD set of Hollywood films, which apparently did not work on a European player.

He also raised eyebrows by giving the Queen of England an iPod and Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd a copy of the sheet music for "The Star Spangled Banner."

Obama meanwhile has received a taekwondo outfit from South Korean President Lee Myung Bak, a book from his Venezuelan counterpart Hugo Chavez and a jersey from a Stanley Cup-winning ice hockey team.

In the conversational interview, the US president said his all-time favorite gifts were a 10-speed bicycle he received one year and a basketball his estranged father gave him one Christmas.

"You know, I do remember the one time I met my father he was visiting during Christmas and he gave me a basketball and -- the degree to which I came to love basketball -- it wasn't until much later in life that I realized, 'Actually, he gave me that basketball,'" Obama recalled.

The intimate, hour-long special also features Winfrey's first one-on-one conversation with the president, an interview with the first couple and behind-the-scenes preparations for the holiday season at the White House.

現(xiàn)在的白宮可能已經(jīng)掛滿了各種圣誕裝飾,洋溢著濃濃的圣誕氣氛,但這里最著名的居民對圣誕老人卻似乎頗有微詞。

美國總統(tǒng)貝拉克?奧巴馬的一期訪談節(jié)目于上周日在ABC電視臺播出。奧巴馬在訪談中談到圣誕禮物時半開玩笑地說:“我送給別人的禮物總比我收到的好?!?/font>

當(dāng)被主持人奧普拉?溫芙瑞問及圣誕節(jié)送禮物的問題時,奧巴馬的直言不諱引起一同接受采訪的第一夫人米歇爾?奧巴馬的不滿。老家同在芝加哥的奧普拉是奧巴馬的密友,也是他的支持者。

米歇爾反駁道:“不可能!我去年送給你的禮物就很好?!?/font>

但是奧巴馬沒有讓步的意思,他手指米歇爾戴的一條雙絞珍珠項鏈,一邊說:“那是絕對的——啊,先別急?!边@條項鏈?zhǔn)撬麄兘Y(jié)婚周年紀(jì)念時他送給米歇爾的禮物。

“這是誰送給你的?”他笑著問道。

盡管奧巴馬自認為很會送禮物,但對此表示質(zhì)疑的人遠不止米歇爾一人。

之前,48歲的總統(tǒng)先生因送給英國首相戈登?布朗一套好萊塢電影DVD合輯受到批評,因為這份禮物貌似無法用歐洲的影碟機播放。

他還曾送給英國女王一款iPod音樂播放器,送給澳大利亞總理陸克文一份美國國歌《星條旗歌》的散頁樂譜,但這兩份禮物都不太如人意。

在收禮方面,奧巴馬曾收到韓國總統(tǒng)李明博贈送的一套跆拳道服,委內(nèi)瑞拉總統(tǒng)烏戈?查韋斯贈送的一本書以及獲得“斯坦利杯”的冰球隊贈送的一套運動衫。

在訪談中,這位美國總統(tǒng)說這么多年來在他收到的所有禮物中,他印象最深的是有一年收到的一輛十速自行車和一年圣誕節(jié)他的父親送給他的一個籃球。奧巴馬與父親的關(guān)系并不親密。

奧巴馬回憶說:“你知道嗎,我記得那次是父親圣誕節(jié)的時候來看我,當(dāng)時他送給我一個籃球,后來我漸漸愛上了籃球,后來我才意識到,‘其實是父親讓我愛上了籃球’。”

這次敞開心扉的、長達一小時的訪談特別節(jié)目還包括奧普拉和總統(tǒng)一對一的對話,對第一夫婦的采訪以及白宮迎接圣誕節(jié)的幕后準(zhǔn)備工作。
