U.S. Actress Drew Barrymore Named World Food Program Ambassador Against Hunger

An advocate of such immense gravitas.... a starring role in Charlies Angels and the author of this unforgettable statement: "I took a poo in the woods hunched over like an animal; It was awesome."

WASHINGTON -- American actress Drew Barrymore was named a World Food Program ambassador against hunger, the United Nations agency announced Wednesday.

Barrymore just returned from a trip to Kenya, where she toured WFP-supported school meal projects, the agency said in a statement. She plans to spend the week in Washington to advocate legislation in the U.S. Congress to increase money for school meals from $100 million per year to about $300 million per year over the next five years.


Yep the UN sure knows how to pick em.
