Reese Witherspoon Hits the UN Headquarters


When it comes to finding a positive female role model in Hollywood, one needs to look no further than Reese Witherspoon. And the “Sweet Home Alabama” star has been spotted out in New York City this week.

On Sunday night, Witherspoon was joined by her boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal and a few friends at swanky NYC restaurant Prune. And according to witnesses, they were as cute as can be.

One source told press, “They were really sweet together and they looked really in love,” noting that Jake and Reese shared the dry-aged ribeye steak for two.

Then, earlier today the “Cruel Intentions” actress was seen busying herself with her role as Avon Global Ambassador at the UN headquarters.

It seems Avon is peddling a Women’s Empowerment Bracelet as a means of global fundraising. The resources raised by the sale of the bracelet will bolster critical work to prevent and reduce the prevalence of violence against women.

Reese addressed the audience, “One out of every three women in the world is affected by domestic violence. 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.”
