Woman's Hour

Kelis; Sport Relief

Duration: 58 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 LWLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 FM

Available for over a year

US music star Kelis about her life-long love of food and music, and how she's bringing both together in her new album Food. And the changes she's made to her life - becoming a cordon bleu chef, getting divorced when she was pregnant, and the joys of motherhood.

As we gear up for this year's Sport Relief Jane Garvey visits a project in London that's benefiting from your donations. The 2011 American documentary - Miss Representation - was highly critical of the way the media treats women. It provoked a lot of response at the time and it'll be shown at the launch of this year's Women of the World festival at the Southbank. Why's it had such an impact?

Plus a celebration of the forgotten women of history - the story of Katherine Swynford, the inspiration for the novel "The Scandalous Duchess".
