LeAnn Rimes calls on Chicago's homeless to star in new video

Written by . Published: September 13 2011

Country singer Leann Rimes' new video will feature homeless teens from Chicago, Illinois.


The Blue hitmaker recently partnered with the Stand Up For Kids organization, and she's helping spread the word about the homeless problem among youngsters by including many of them in the promo for her new song Give.

In a post on her website, Rimes writes, "My life is forever changed from this experience. One thing they all said to me is no one looks them in the eye when they see them on the streets, so there's a deep loneliness there and a feeling of almost not existing.

"I will now always look anyone who's homeless in the eye and smile. That smile could make their whole day."
