Major stars turned out for the Women’s March in Washington DC

Plenty of stars turned out for the Women’s March in Washington DC yesterday.

Madonna, Scarlett Johansson, Katy Perry and Alicia Keys were among the hundreds of thousands of women on the streets of Washington DC, protesting for women’s rights and equality, just one day after Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Some stars got up on stage to speak at the event, with Scarlett Johansson exclaiming, “President Trump, I did not vote for you.”

“That said, I respect that you are our President-elect and I want to be able to support you but first I ask that you support me, support my sister, support my mother…support my daughter.


“Who may actually, as a result of the appointments you have made, grow up in a country that is moving backwards, not forward, and who may potentially not have the right to make choices for her body and her future that your daughter Ivanka has been privileged to have.

“I ask you to support all women and our fight for equality in all things. I pledge my relentless devotion to women’s healthcare initiatives. I will not stop fighting to make basic women’s healthcare available to all,” she said.

Other stars including Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, Helen Mirren, Emma Watson, Chrissy Teigen, Nick Offerman and many, many more joined protests being held in cities around the world.
