Former French Justice minister and European MP Rachida Dati uses her cellphone on July 14, 2009 before the opening session at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, Eastern France. Dubbed France's Cinderella for her success in overcoming the odds, Dati was one of three black and Arab women appointed to President Nicholas Sarkozy's right-wing government in 2007.
