Madonna & Beyonce Pair Up For Sound Of Change Benefit Concert
“Girl Power” takes on a whole new meaning as pop divas Madonna and Beyonce team up with fellow pop divas (just kidding, they’re political activists) Gloria Steinem and Bishop Desmond Tutu for Sound of Change Live, a benefit concert that will spread the message of female empowerment.
Madonna will serve as a presenter, while — as previously announced — Beyonce will take the stage alongside Florence and the Machine and Ellie Goulding for the four-hour concert. Other artists who will makes appearances include Jennifer Lopez, Rita Ora, John Legend, HAIM, Iggy Azalea and Timbaland.
The Sound of Change Live, organized by Gucci’s Chime for Change Campaign, serves to raise money for education, health and justice projects that benefit young women around the world. The concert will be broadcasted live from London to over 150 countries on June 1, and will air on NBC on June 2.
