Lip-synching Albright highlights refugee commercialUNITED NATIONS -- A U.N. commercial about the success stories of several refugees shows U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright lip-synching a Motown classic while dancing in a grocery store.
Other refugees in the 60-second ad include Sudanese-born model Alek Wek, Chilean writer Isabel Allende, Canadian rapper Keinaan and sex therapist Dr. Ruth Westheimer. "Perhaps we can contribute something to breaking the negative stereotype of refugees as a burden by showing the positive side, by showing the success stories," U.N. spokesman Hans Thoolen said.
