On a mission to improve their world image, Republic of Chechnya has enlisted an unlikely ally - Canadian model Chrystal Callahan. The model will host her own weekly Sunday evening television show, "An Inside Look with Chrystal Callahan." The show premiers tomorrow.

Callahan has previously visited and expressed her respect and affection for the Republic. She also said would be interested in working there. And so, the Republic of Chechnya called her bluff and gave her a job as a TV host.

The program will include news reports, features on Callahan's topic of choice and a Q&A section. Callahan's program will be broadcast in English with Russian subtitles starting June 7. The producers hope hiring the model will better the Republic by inciting interest abroad and raising moral values within. One of those two plans should work.

Any readers who happen to find actual pictures of this model, do share.
