Yesterday marked International Women's Day 2016, which united all women across the world. Amongst the celebrations, debates and empowerment that took place, a variety of celebrities were only too proud to stand up for their rights and gender. See our gallery full of celebrity photos from the day.
Here's to next time #IWD, although it would be awesome if International Women's Day was acknowledged every day and not just one day a year...
