"I have spent my entire life in the spotlight,” Brooke Shields said in a campaign video to be the President of Actors’ Equity Association, a union for those working in live performances. And rather than shirk fame, Shields is leaning into the limelight and lending her image to a cause she truly cares about.
The 1990s supermodel-turned-TV-icon has found herself in a new leading role—having won the election in late May and now representing the union which is comprised of more than 51,000 actors and stage managers. At the helm for the next four years, Shields has her work cut out for her. But Shields insists she isn’t afraid of a challenge.
