With a line-up that includes Drew Barrymore, David Beckham, Orlando Bloom, and Ricky Martin, the UN's choice of ambassadors has been known to cause raised eyebrows or the odd smirk.

Well, Iran is on the UN's Commission of Women's Rights so not much of their fuckery surprises me anymore.

And the UN wonders why it has a kinda shitty reputation. Of all the people they could pick, couldn't they stick to the relatively inoffensive celebrities or actual humanitarians.

I first read the title as UN 'leader for terrorism'. That might have been more accurate.

How does this make ANY sense, at all.

That's the exact same way that I read the title too

This is why nobody takes you seriously, UN.
