As Avon's Global Ambassador, Reese Witherspoon visited Japan to bring a message of empowerment and hope to the Asia Pacific region. Ms. Witherspoon was the guest of honor at a traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony where she met women who are breast cancer survivors. The "Rendition" star is Honorary Chairman of the Avon Foundation, which is focused on breast cancer, domestic violence and emergency relief initiatives, and is also the spokeswoman for Avon's beauty brands and Sales Representatives. She also highlighted critical concern for the plight and lack of support for women in the Asia region suffering from breast cancer. It's the power of woman.

In Conversation with Paolo Bertolin (Venice International Film Festival)
