Video of the Week – CCTV News anchor caught putting on makeup during broadcast

this video is no longer available - you can take a look at this one instead.

At about 10.20 last night, during the international news section of the Evening News (晚间新间) on CCTV 1, the screen suddenly switched from the prepared footage to anchor He Hongmei powdering her face. By the "caught in the spotlight" look on her face, we assume she was aware that the camera had just switched back to her.
