Pop Star Madonna Dedicates Song To Brave Teenage Pak Peace Activist Malala
International pop singer Madonna during a concert in Los Angeles dedicated a song to 14-year-old Pakistani child activist Malala Yousufzai, who was attacked by the Taliban on Tuesday.
"This song is for you, Malala," Madonna said and then went on to sing "Human nature".
"This made me cry. The 14-year-old schoolgirl who wrote a blog about going to school. The Taliban stopped her bus and shot her. Do you realise how sick that is?" The Nation quoted Madonna, as saying.
"Support education! Support women!" she shouted out to a cheering crowd.
Malala, who earned international fame for raising voice against Taliban oppression in Swat, was shot in the neck and head and two other girls sustained injuries when the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) opened fire on their school van in Swat valley.
