12 Inspirational Male and Female Celebrity Feminists

6. Beyonce

Beyonce is definitely one of the most influential women in entertainment, so she made quite the impact at the 2014 MTV Music Awards with her “FEMINIST” backdrop during her performance. Beyonce believes that children should learn about gender equality and respect from a young age so that it becomes instinctive. Beyonce noted, “Humanity requires both men and women, and we are equally important and need one another. So why are we viewed as less than equal? These old attitudes are drilled into us from the very beginning. We have to teach our boys the rules of equality and respect, so that as they grow up, gender equality becomes a natural way of life. And we have to teach our girls that they can reach as high as humanly possible.” Remember ladies, “you wake up, flawless.” It’s empowering to have Bey as one of our proud celebrity feminists.
