Sasha Obama turns 16: Here's a look at Sasha through the years as she celebrates 16th birthday [PHOTOS]

Did you know Sasha Obama's real name is Natasha Obama? Celebrating her 16th birthday, here are a few photos that show how quickly Obama's daughter has grown up.

Time clearly flies. Sasha Obama was eight years old when she set foot into the White House for the first time. After Barack Obama won the Presidential elections to become the 44th President of the United States of America in 2009, little miss Sasha was clicked holding her sister Malia Obama's hand as she stepped into the limelight.

Since then, the White House and paparazzi have kept a close watch on her. Spending eight good years in the White House, the Obama daughter has transferred from being a little munchkin to the gorgeous teenager she is now.

Following her sister and mother's footsteps, Sasha has drawn attention for her style statements. She turned 16 over the weekend and stunned everyone as she wore a breath-taking red silk slip and chose to accessorise herself with a layered gold chain.

But before she turned into the style diva she is now, Sasha was first seen in a white dress, on her mother Michelle's arms wearing a pair of Mary Jane shoes as the family celebrated their presidential victory.

So how did she transform into the beautiful woman she is now? Here's a look at a few of Sasha's best pictures from the moment she moved into the White House to be a part of the first family.
