President Obama did more than just thank the California Attorney General for her hard work, as he revealed his not-so-secret crush on the attractive legislator at a Thursday fundraiser in San Francisco.
He paid Kamala Harris a number of compliments during the garden-party style event on Thursday, with a noted number of them extending past her work as the state's highest legal authority.
'She’s brilliant and she’s dedicated, she’s tough...She also happens to be, by far, the best looking attorney general,' he said, adding, 'It's true! C'mon!'
Obama remarked on Harris' looks on the same day that Michelle Obama slipped up in an interview and called herself a 'single mother.'

Beauty and brains: The daughter of an Asian Indian mother and Jamaican American father, Ms Harris has a unique look
During an interview with Burlington, Vermont CBS affiliant WCAX, the first lady was discussing healthy foods and how the demands of raising a family can leave little time for nutritious cooking.
'Believe me, as a busy single mother, Obama said, before quickly correcting herself, 'Or I shouldn't say single - as a busy mother.'
Explaining her slip-up, she added, 'Sometimes, you know when you've got the husband who's president it can feel a little single. But he's there.'
Meanwhile, in San Francisco, Obama was doting on Ms Harris, 'noting a couple of times that she is, objectively, easy on the eyes,' according to a pool reporter.
The 48-year-old Ms Harris is a Democratic favorite and a trailblazer in her home state.
Her mixed race descent - having been born of an Asian Indian mother who emigrated to the U.S. from Chennai and a Jamaican American father- made her the first female, African American and Asian American attorney general in the state.
On top of that, she is the first Indian American attorney general in the country.
Her career shows no sign of stopping, as she is regularly mentioned when pundits speculate about possible Supreme Court nominees should a new judge be appointed during President Obama's second term.

Another possible tract for her is the gubernatorial one, as attorney general is a common springboard position for those hoping to climb the local ladder.
Little is known about her current romantic situation, except that she was in a serious relationship with the former mayor of San Francisco Willie Brown.
The two were a serious item and dated when he was the Speaker of the California State Assembly, but they reportedly broke up in 1998.
