Madonna is set to introduce Pussy Riot at an Amnesty International gig next month.
Members of the politically charged Russian girl group, Pussy Riot, will take to the stage after a very special introduction by Madonna herself.
Madonna is incredibly happy to have the opportunity to perform with the girls: “I am honored to introduce my fellow freedom fighters Masha and Nadya from Pussy Riot. I have admired their courage and have long supported their commitment and the sacrifices they have made in the name of freedom of expression and human rights.”
Masha and Nadya were recently released from prison after being arrested for protesting in a Russian Church.
Taking place in New York next week, the concert will also feature Lauryn Hill, Tegan and Sara and Imagine Dragons.
