Singer Wyclef signs up for Haiti presidency race
Hip hop star Wyclef Jean submitted the paperwork to run for president of Haiti, thrusting himself into what is expected to be a highly competitive race and ending years of speculation about his political ambitions.
Several hundred of his supporters cheered as he arrived by motorcade in a dark suit and tie at an electoral office in the capital Port-au-Prince, still largely in ruins from the devastating January 12 earthquake.
