Reese Witherspoon Promotes Women’s Empowerment Bracelet
Oscar-winning actress and Avon Global Ambassador Reese Witherspoon unveils Avon’s first global fundraising product, the Women’s Empowerment Bracelet at the UN headquarters in NYC on Tuesday.
The bracelet, which is a United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) partnership with Avon, will sell for $3 each and all net profits will be donated to the Avon Empowerment Fund. These resources will bolster critical work to prevent and reduce the prevalence of violence against women.
“One out of every three women in the world is affected by domestic violence,” Reese said at the press conference. “I am proud to be a part of this summit and I support Avon and UNIFEM wholeheartedly in their efforts to put an end to this global epidemic.”

V…I can’t understand the message you are trying to convey. No offense, but I can’t follow what you’re saying, your english obviously isn’t that strong.
“Reese Witherspoon has only work when she practice estrategic sex in Hollywood studios or hoteis. She has lot of employee whose are woking for her. We can see because their small children thing that the lovers of their mother are another babysitter.” <<–WHAT!?
You must be mistaking her with someone else. I didn’t understand what you said here but all I saw was the thing about sex in Hollywood studios and hotels…what the hell are you talking about and where did you get that from? You must have some weird tabloids in Germany. But you seriously must be thinking of someone else. Paris Hilton, maybe?
screw reese, what about that CEO! Look at the face—like a man, and the hair–toupee.
lol
I wonder if she gets a cut from every bracelet sold. She certainly gets paid a lot by Avon. Anybody have any idea how much? I would like to see her give a million dollars to some good cause rather than just model a bracelet. BTW I hope she is not implying that she was abused in her marriage. I saw that she was spotted in NYC along with Jakeypoo at her side. I guess she can’t travel far without her toyboy and general factotum dancing attendance.
PS Why is she grinning so crazily? Can’t she just smile nicely?

Ok!. You can have your opinion too.
I will try to explain with my bad English.
When you give a handout for a begger you give some money… few or lot of money. Then you don’t have more responsability for this person!!!. You must decide. Or you help a person to give a solution for their problem or it will better to ignore them.
Audrey Hepborn give up the confortable career of actress to travel around the world to help the people.
Kahlheinz Böhm ( you can read in Wikipedia dicionary ) gave fast all his money and what he became of fathe’ts inheritance, Kahl Böhm the conductor of Vienna Orquestra, to help the people in Africa. He was at television in Europe to beg the to governments don’t sell military mines and he said that he was in a group with people whose worked in a charity organization with cars and a land mine exploded. His friend whose was beside him died. It was luck that he didn’t die too!
You can understand what I am saying?.
Hollywood would like through the propaganda all these Hollywood insect bigger then they are.
Reese Witherspoon is a women with bad character and betray the people. I don’t believe in this prostitute and AVON must to explain what are their plans and what they are doing with all this money.
The police last year arrest a group whose practice pedophily in Germany and most part of them were medicine doctors or medicine student. The Reese Witherspoon’s father can give prestige for her too. There are good doctors and there are Frankstein at present!

The brother of Reese Witherspoon was arrest because he invaded a house and trying to abuse of a women whose lived in this house.
Reese Witherspoon put him to work with her in Hollywood studios. There are lot of sexual maniac in Hollywood: Victor Salva was in prison because abuse of a 10 years old child in Disney Studios, Roman Polanski whose abuse of a 13 years old girl, Wood Allen whose had case with abuse his adoctive daughters etc..
Reese Witherspoon isn’t good actress. He give lot of less for Hollywood films because their films are failure. She don’t habe good appearance and she practice prostitution in Hollywood partys like Golden Globe. The dress of Kirsten Dunst that she used beside her men in Golden Globe 2006 confirm her mentality…
20 million dollar for this worthless midget is a exaggeration.
She and Jake Gyllenhaal practice prostitution with Hollywood leathers to win main place in films too. They have money and they would like win more!!!
Love her!

she seems stuck up
Love her
Haters,
She has been doing charity for a long time…

How do you know Reese didn’t donate some of her money to a charitable cause? Just because she didn’t go on Oprah and flaunt her monetary donation, it doesn’t mean that she hasn’t done it. Get over yourself. Wtf do you have against her? At least she’s doing something productive with her time helping those in need unlike you who seem to have wasted most of your day away by coming on here leaving so many amount of idiotic comments in order to defame the good she’s doing. Get a ******* life!
I can’t believe that people are actually criticizing Reese for supporting a good cause. Sure, I know she gets PR in exchange, but come on! Her livelihood depends on that. I don’t blame celebs for maybe being a teensy bit selfish when they give their faces or names to a good cause!
V, you are delusional! You’ve practically repeated your Audrey Hepburn bit one too many times. All it takes it once! And second of all, so what if she supposedly employed her brother who is an ex-convict? Are you saying that people don’t deserve a second chance? Are you saying that just because he was once convicted, he doesn’t deserve a job and that his own family should disown him altogether? Seriously… DELUSIONAL! As far as your whole prostitution crap, where are you getting this exactly? You don’t know her personally therefore, stop with your judgment. It’s getting old. Rather than sitting in front of your computer the whole damn day posting these crude comments about her, do something with your life and stop focusing on hers! Help others since you seem to think you can do much better than her. Do you realize that in the times you took to post ridiculous comments about her, you could’ve head on over to an organization of your choice and volunteered your time to help?
Jane
You are one the management and PR whose score the blogs isn’t it.
How much Reese Witherspoon paid for you work for her.
I will repeat. I don’t give my money for Charity Mafia. AVON don’t explain what do they do against “the violence against women” etc…
I don’t believe in all these “charity organizations”. Audrey Hepborn…Kahlheinz Böhm and lot of actors and actresses helped directly the people…I know the organization “SOS Kinderdorf” whose Her Böhm work. There are several of them in lot of parts of world. They beginning help children after 2° war in Europe.
I don’t care much if Reese Witherspoon give lot or few money for the people. I won’t give few or lot of money for organizations whose I don’t know and don’t have a program like AVON. I had told in this blog what happened with the woman in Somalia with UN soldiers. We know in Europe that the UN is a doll whose the american government manipulate.
Repeat! I will give money for the traditional charities organization like Red Cross and I don’t give my money for charity Mafias.
V-
I don’t live under a ******* rock! I know what her brother did, but what does that have to do with Reese? Yeah, it’s her brother, but she didn’t do it, he did. Get over that ok. It’s her brother…she isn’t going to disown him. In an article it said she was working on forgiving him, she isn’t acting like he didn’t do anything…it’s her BROTHER!
My uncle went to jail for drinking and driving, does that make me a bad person!? I hate when people judge other people because of things that their family members do.
Also, she isn’t a good actress!? Are you serious? You obviously haven’t seen Walk the Line, Cruel Intentions, Election, Legally Blonde, or Pleasantville. I think she did an amazing job in all of those movies. She is an amazing talent. And I’m not the only one who thinks so…a list of all her nominations and wins. I think they speak for themselves.

Get a life…go do something good with your time like Reese does.
you need help V. Mafia…are you serious? How can you compare that to the Mafia. Research the Mafia and then come back and say that. And don’t give me a ******* long explanation of the Mafia. We’re tired of your lectures V…shut up!
The brother of Reese Winterspoon can stay at home and help her children if she believe him. It is normal that the sexual maniac protect their relatives but abuse of another people whose don’t be relative of them. Or he can work where only man are working. There are lot of sexual maniacs in Hollywood studios. They needn’t another one in their studios. Hollywood studios would like to fight against pornographyc film studios and the studios began to make light pornographyc films too. The pornography use sexuals illness to attract the attention of people. I imagine that the athmosphere of Hollywood studios became worse.!!!
Have you ever been to America? You are seriously disturbed if you think Hollywood is all about pornography. You are reading the wrong magazines and the wrong news sources. You need help if you think that…I’m done arguing with you. No one on this blog has agreed with you. Get over it already. Reese is not saying her brother did a good thing, she thought that giving him a job will help him to stop drinking dumb ass, which was part of the reason behind his actions.
You need to read some American news before you come out with these accusations . What do you mean if she believes him..? Believes hims about what!? She knows what he did, everyone does. But she is willing to help him like good people do and help him recover from his disease of alcoholism and keep him out of trouble, that’s what good sisters do.
You need to read a book, you seem so uneducated.Just go away, no one wants to hear your misinformed rants anymore.
Reese is doing amazing things with her celebrity, unlike most. And I am going to purchase some of those bracelets because it is going to benefit women who are victims of domestic violence and I have good friends who are victims of that! So, you obviously don’t care about that V…go donate to The Red Cross which already has enough support.

This film Walk the Line was a film for the americans. Nobody worldwide knows these two people whose were main character of this film. Nobody worldwide like country music with exception of americans. The story of this film was a garbage with “happy horner”. Happy horner themes is the biggerst adventure that an american writer can imagine last time, isn’t it?
Come on!… After The last Emperor, Gladiator, Trafic etc…
Reese Witherspoon was a parasite of Joachin Phoenix. He is the great actor not she.
It is better Reese Witherspoon take all these political prizes at home and enjoy her money with his children and her boytoy. I have heard that she isn’t normal last time . She can’t use her money because she would like save this money !!! She are cleaning the garbage of neighbour by midnight… Take a ship and do a long trip 2 years! After that make a turism in Space Station. There are lot of things for people whose have money to do.
I hope that leathers of Hollywood remember to do films for normal people not mental retarded or sexual maniac. They can remember that there are people with another reality and way of life of their personal over there . I hope that my daughter don’t continuos to watch all these garbage that Hollywood are producting at present. It is nececery for Hollywood update and select her personal.
First off, the story Walk the Line was released in other countries also, dumb ass. second, it was based on a true story, so it wasn’t fictional story created solely by writers.
If you hate hollywood so much why are you on this site? Hmm…don’t have you daughter watch the sex maniacs, as you put it. She can find that online by herself.
You obvously are a bitter old person who didn’t make life for themself and you are taking it out on those who are doing something with thier lives.
And she’s not doing anything with her money!? She was a co-founder of a childrens organizatin, it takes MONEY to do that…
You are a sad excuse for a human being who is putting people down for doing good things.
Now, V…I’ll ask you again and maybe you can answer it and not change the subject. What good have done to help the world? You can ask me, I’ll tell you, I’ve done lots!
She looks and acts just like Tracey Flick from Election. I don’t doubt that she is a massively annoying Type A personality. She comes across as a bit sanctimonious and obnoxious.
Plus her chin annoys me, you could serve tea on it.

What kind of help AVON and Reese Witherspoon would like to do for victims of domestic violences. I don’t know but I ask for 5 or 6 times. I would like to know. What do you do when your good friend was victim of domestic violence?
Films like “In the Cut” with Mag Ryan . The House of Yes from Disney whose about incest. Jarhead with dirty butt of Jake Gyllenhaal. Brokeback Mountains etc. They have category of pornographyc films.
There are pornographic film industry and there are specials channels at television or special places in videothek whose only adults can see.
Yes I habe been in USA two times. My father was prominent architect of General Electric Company years ago. My grandfather was Division General of Army of my country and worked with American Army during 2°war . The cousin of my mother worked in NASA during Apolo Project in USA . The brother of my grandmother was one of engineer whose was responsable for the atomic project of my country. The father of my grandmother was doctor and take part one of biggerst expedition of my country. My family is one of olderst family of this big city and in France where part of my family come is older too.
That’s nice. I didn’t ask about your family. I asked what you have done to help the world.
And it is not an industry of pornography, it is an industry of truth. That is what happens in the real world. you must be very sheltered. Men kiss men and have sex with one another, And OH MY GOD, the world is going to end…they showed a BUTT! I watch a French film with more sex that I have ever seen in an american movie…so it’s not just america. WAKE UP AND LEARN YOUR FACTS.
And when my friend was a victims of domestic violence, I introduced her to my father who is a psychologist so she could talk to him and I convinced her to end the relationship and move on with her life.
Bracelet proceeds will be used to create a new Avon Empowerment Fund. The first $500,000 from bracelet sales will be matched by the Avon Foundation for a total donation of $1 million to UNIFEM, the United Nations Development Fund for Women, for projects that will empower women around the world.
That’s where it’s going to…it says right on the AVON site, idiot.
Wow V, there have been nothing but dumb and ignorant comments out of you. You don’t even know what the **** you’re talking about half the time. Seriously, get the **** off of the internet and do something productive… perhaps, think before you talk? It seems that you believe in that screwed up head of yours that everyone in here who opposes your stupid comments are being paid by RW. You’re ridiculous. Come back and argue with us a little later when you can actually speak English very well because honestly, reading your comments have given me headaches… almost as much as that heinous 9/11 comment that Marion Cotillard made. Go donate your time to Red Cross. Stop coming on a US based celebrity gossip site since you seem to hate Hollywood and it’s celebrities so much.
Oh and WHAT HAVE YOU DONE GOOD lately? Sitting in front of your computer and babbling nonsense bullshit doesn’t count!
I dont believe that!!! Did i tell you theres a new season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians March 9th on E! starting at 10 pm et/pt. The first season was good but this season i bet is going to be just crazy. Here are those links you wanted play the tushy game its great!!

Reese has been involved with the Children’s Defense Fund for some time. She has also been involved with education projects both before and since Katrina in the NOLA region. One thing tho. Girlfriend sure looks tired. Maybe it’s bcz she got up early to do the Today Show before she went to the UN…and you know she probably hasn’t been getting a lot of sleep in NYC…LOL!
i love the fact they that they’re using their money into a good cause but what bothers me is that everybody is into being the ambassador of like this and like that.
