Sasha Obama showed off her midriff in a figure-hugging crop top, a bohemian-style skirt, and knee-high heeled boots as she left the gym in Los Angeles over the weekend.

The youngest daughter of former President Barack Obama, 22, was photographed working up a sweat as she went for a run on a treadmill on Sunday.

Afterwards, she changed into a gray, long-sleeve shirt and white, flowing midi-skirt which left her stomach on full display.

Sasha kept her long, braided locks pulled back in a ponytail and wore minimal makeup for the outing.

She clutched onto her phone and keys as she exited the gym and headed to her car. 

The 22-year-old was spotted wearing the same top days earlier, when she stopped to fill up her car with some gas.

That time, she paired it with some baggy denim jeans and platform sandals.

The former First Daughter relocated to the West Coast in 2022 after she transferred to USC from the University of Michigan, and she is now living in LA with her older sister, Malia Obama.

Malia, 25, moved there in 2021 to pursue her career as a screenwriter, after she finished her studies at Harvard University.

'The thing that I love the most is that those two girls are each other's best friends,' she told Today hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager.

'There was a period of time when they couldn't stand each other, and I said, "You wait, you are going to wake up one day and you're going to look over at that other person, and you're going to know that you two share something very unique," especially given what they've been through.

Sasha's gym session came just weeks after a convicted felon made wild gay sex claims about her father

Earlier this month, con man Larry Sinclair alleged that Barack performed oral sex on him twice in Chicago in 1999, and that he witnessed him buying and smoking cocaine during an appearance on former Fox host Tucker Carlson's show. 

Larry - who has a lengthy criminal history, including convictions on forgery, fraud and larceny charges, and has served prison time in Arizona, Florida, and Colorado - first made the claims in 2008, while Barack was gearing up to run for president.

Sasha was spotted puffing on a cigarette in her car in Los Angeles last week - a habit she may have picked up from her father, who previously admitted to smoking up to 10 cigarettes a day

At the time, his accusations were roundly condemned as an attempted political hatchet-job. He has never offered any proof of his claims against the former president.

Larry's claims were given a new lease of life last month, however, after The New York Post released a letter written by Barack in 1982, when he was 21 years old, to his girlfriend Alex McNear.

In it, he wrote that he 'loves making love to men daily, but in the imagination,' according to the publication. 

Seeming unbothered by the scandal surrounding her dad, Sasha has been pictured out and about a lot recently. 

Last week, she headed to the grocery store to pick up some fresh produce, and days before that, she was seen leaving a luxury spa. 

Dressed casually in a black tank top and green sweatpants, an onlooker told DailyMail.com that she spent three hours at the wellness center.

She stopped to puff on a cigarette before driving off, and it was certainly not the first time that Sasha has been caught smoking - as paparazzi have snapped shots of her partaking in the act on numerous occasions.

It's a habit she may have picked up from her father, who previously admitted to smoking up to 10 cigarettes a day and has been very honest about his struggle to quit.

Barack, 62, began smoking as a teenager and he famously promised his wife, Michelle, 59, that he would stop before he campaigned for president. 

In 2009, he admitted during a press conference, 'As a former smoker I constantly struggle with it.

'Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am I daily smoker or a constant smoker? No. I don't do it in front of my kids. I don't do it in front of my family. 

'And, you know, I would say that I am 95 per cent cured, but there are times where I mess up.'

In his 2020 memoir, A Promised Land, the former President said that at one point he smoked up to 10 cigarettes a day.

He credited his eldest daughter, Malia, with helping him to quit, writing that seeing her 'frown' at him after she 'smelled it on his breath' made him determined to stop.
