The fashion and merchandising empress -- who scored ratings success with her debut Style network reality show 'Life in the Fab Lane' last month -- has joined forces with Motown Records president/Universal Records executive vice president Sylvia Rhone and blue-eyed soul singer Joss Stone to help launch the Women in Entertainment Empowerment Network (WEEN). Led by women executives in music, television, film, radio and other forms of entertainment, the organization aims to support, promote and defend the positive, balanced portrayal of women in entertainment and in society.

Comprised of women of all races and ages, WEEN was created in light of recent discussion surrounding the portrayal of women of color in entertainment, specifically in Hip-Hop music. It will target three core areas which include corporate social responsibility, media/artist responsibility and community programs/outreach.

"I am truly honored to join forces with the Women's Entertainment Empowerment Network and this amazing collective of women," the former Mrs. Russell Simmons said. She'sthe coalition's national spokeswoman. "I firmly believe in WEEN's mission and hope that together we can begin making a real difference with our work."
