Michelle Obama enlisted some heavy hitters in a new uplifting anthem dedicated to young women around the world. âThis Is for My Girlsâ features Zendaya, Missy Elliott, Kelly Rowland, Lea Michele, Kelly Clarkson, Janelle MonĂĄe, Jadagrace and Chloe & Halle.Â
The song is part of the first ladyâs call to action and supports both the Let Girls Learn initiative and the #62MillionGirls campaign.
The song, which was written by Diane Warren, was released Thursday morning and can be purchased on iTunes. What makes the song great is that not only are the A-list singers involved, but they also all did it for free!
Warren recalled working on the song: âIt happened so fastâliterally, Kelly Clarkson was singing her part in Nashville while we were almost mastering it,â she said. âSo we dropped her vocals in. It was that crazy.â
You can listen to a snippet of Missy Elliottâs verse below and purchase the single on iTunes. All proceeds will support the Peace Corpsâ Let Girls Learn Fund.
