0:00It's April 22nd. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News today, powered by AI. Your front row to the latest buzz. I'm Cory with the story. Lucy Hale, the 36-year-old actress from Pretty Little Liars and The Hating Game, just stepped up as the newest global UN Goodwill Ambassador for the World Food Program. Her dad became a farmer after she moved to Los Angeles for acting, but she grew up with hardworking parents, a farmer and a nurse and spent time on the family tractor with him. She's super grateful for the humble start, saying it taught her real values and now she jumps in to help on the farm whenever she visits. Through this role, Hale wants to spotlight farming's power, not just handing out food, but teaching folks to grow their own so nations can thrive on, their own. At 36, she feels pulled toward bigger impact, calling this the honor of a lifetime and she's hoping for a long partnership ahead.
