Michelle Obama is stepping into reality television this fall with a guest star appearance on ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition." In the episode, the First Lady will help build a new boarding house for homeless female veterans, which will include an expansion to the Steps-N-Stages Jubilee House, a new greenhouse and a children’s playhouse. This will be tied into the Joining Forces initiative she started with Vice President Joe Biden's wife, Jill, to support military vets and their families.

 

The house will be built outside Ft. Bragg in Fayetteville, North Carolina and the episode is set to start filming on Thursday.
