The Body no match for a Queen when fighting poverty
IT takes some woman to overshadow Elle Macpherson, but Queen Rania of Jordan managed to do just that during a UN push to end global poverty this week.
The Body was at the side of the Middle Eastern royal, as well as UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon, adding her celebrity name to a campaign to halve the number of people suffering in the world by 2015.
Dressed in jeans, a campaign T-shirt and feather jacket, the Aussie supermodel was out-styled by the diplomatically designer-clad Queen Rania.
But it wasn’t a parade of fashion but fashionable types that helped raise the profile of the worthy cause, with Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am belting out a song he penned called In My Name.
Pledging their names to the wall opposite the UN headquarters in New York were Aussie singers John Butler and Missy Higgins.
