Here are the times when women supported another women in real life and proved the fact that there is nothing more powerful in the world than an outstretched hand of another woman in your direction. 

1. When Priyanka Chopra Stood Up For Meghan Markle On Racism:

In an interview with The Sunday Times, Priyanka spoke about the criticism Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, faces and said that much of it is due to her biracial heritage. She quoted, “I have seen that and it’s really unfortunate. But if there’s anyone who can handle it, it’s her. The beauty of Meg is that she’s been herself through all of this. A lot of people got to know her after everything, but I knew her before [she started dating Harry] and she’s the same chick. Now she’s got a real platform, she talks about the same things she always did“.

4. When Katy Perry Defended Ellen DeGeneres On Bullying:

When The Ellen Show came under the microscope after the allegations of toxic behaviour from senior staff, several celebrities came out in her support denying the fact that they were never treated poorly by her while they came as the guests on the show or even off set. She tweeted,”I know I can’t speak for anyone else’s experience besides my own but I want to acknowledge that I have only ever had positive takeaways from my time with Ellen & on the @theellenshow. I think we all have witnessed the light & continual fight for equality that she has brought to the world through her platform for decades. Sending you love & a hug, friend @TheEllenShow.”

Respect shud b equal in all quarters Period!“. 

8. When Selena Gomez Defended Taylor Swift Against Kimye:

During the Kimye and Taylor Swift feud, Selena Gomez was first to support one of her besties. She tweeted, “There are more important things to talk about… Why can’t people use their voice for something that f—ing matters? Truth is, last thing we need right now is hate, in any form. This industry is so disappointing yet the most influential smh.” 

9. When Srishty Rode Defended Rubina Dilaik For A Bigg Boss Task:

During the last season of Bigg Boss, Rubina Dilaik opted out of a task which asked the other housemates to name the contestant who they feel have more garbage in their head. During Weekend Ka Vaar, host Salman Khan schooled her over the same issue. Srishty Rode, Rubina’s friend and an ex-contestant, said that, “Rubina I know she has spoken for the right and will take a stand for something like this even in real life. She is intelligent and has a lot of knowledge but when someone has to explain her something, they have to do it in a different way. She is somebody who holds her values and herself very high. So, I totally understand when she says she won’t do a particular task. I don’t blame her because this is her real self.” 

Two women can definitely be friends and raise each other up!
