As the war on women’s reproductive rights continues, Planned Parenthood with the support of over 250 high-profile celebrities —with one being Grammy-Award winning rapper, Megan Thee Stallion— is fighting back.
The Houston native was just one of the hundreds of celebrities, activists, and entertainers who signed their names to a statement that reads, “I’m for Planned Parenthood,” in a letter published as a full-page ad in The New York Times and shared on the nonprofit’s website. “Over 250 artists, activists, athletes, and business leaders support Planned Parenthood’s mission. All across the country, nearly 600 nonprofit health centers provide the care communities need and deserve,” the statement reads.
Other high-profile signees included Lin-Manuel Miranda, Billy Porter, Danielle Brooks, Gabrielle Union, George Lopez, Jack Antonoff, Jimmy Kimmel, Kerry Washington, Roxane Gay, Shonda Rhimes, and Tatyana Ali.
