Obamas share intimate dinner with A-listers Hanks, Springsteen and Spielberg

Former President Obama and wife Michelle partied into the wee hours Monday with a few A-list pals — Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw and Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa.

The powerhouse pairs gathered at the Hanks’ $26 million Pacific Palisades manse in California around 7 p.m. Sunday — and kept the party going till well after midnight, according to Splash News.

But despite the long night, the well-heeled guests appeared no worse for the wear afterward.

The country’s former commander in chief, casually dressed in a blue blazer, gray polo shirt and khakis, sat in the back of one of the vehicles in his and Michelle’s six-car motorcade perusing his tablet as they were driven away.

Meanwhile, the ex-First Lady, stunning in a gold sequined dress, appeared to flip through e-mails on her phone next to him.

Legendary Hollywood director Spielberg also sat back as he was driven off — by his actress wife in their Land Rover.

Famous crooner Springsteen  — who was arrested for alleged drunken driving in February — and his musician wife were both chauffeured away together. 

The DWI rap against Springsteen was later dropped — after a blood-alcohol test showed his level was 0.02, far below the legal limit of .08. 

The couples have all been longtime friends going back to at least when the Obamas were in the White House.

The then-president awarded each of the men the Medal of Freedom: Spielberg in 2015 and Hanks and Springsteen a year later.  

The Obamas, Hanks and Springsteens have even vacationed together.

Tom Hanks told TV late-show host Stephen Colbert in 2017 about how the three couples went to French Polynesia together with a few other people, including Oprah Winfrey.

The actor joked to Colbert about publicity over the trip, “Both Oprah and I were really pissed off because, is this where we are in the world? 

“Is this what’s going on with social media that Oprah and I cannot go on a billionaire’s boat to Tahiti with a former president of the United States and not keep it secret for God’s sake?” he said, according to Travel + Leisure magazine.
