As a spokesperson for the organization said in Geneva, the UN could think of nothing more important than working to ensure that Hollywood actresses no longer fall victim to inhumane diets. It also wants to counter unworthy media campaigns that constantly beat up on overweight stars. With its commitment to Barrymore, the UN also wants to address the issue of child labor in Hollywood. Her case in particular highlights the dangers for children in this business: Barrymore, who flickered across cinema screens alongside the alien E.T. at the tender age of seven, suffered a breakdown when she was told at the age of 14 that there were no aliens at all. The actress was unable to cope with this and her early fame and was already addicted to drugs at the age of 15. As a first concrete measure in the fight against the poor treatment of women like Barrymore in Hollywood, the UN wants to lobby the US Congress this week to provide 360 million francs in funding for the serving of healthy meals in Hollywood canteens and restaurants, according to the press release.
