We’re hearing yes. Earlier this month it was announced that weirdos (Flaming Lips), jocks (Imagine Dragons), legends (Ms. Lauryn Hill), and the recently released from prison (Pussy Riot) will take the stage at Barclays Center on Feb. 5th for Amnesty International’s Bringing Human Rights Home concert. Then it was announced earlier this week that Pussy Riot would also be on hand. Now we’re being told that Madonna will be making an appearance as well, possibly joining Pussy Riot on stage. Of course, Madonna has long been a supporter of the group, writing “Free Pussy RIot” on her arms and back all during her MDNA tour.
We’ll keep you posted if anyone else is added or if this (very likely true) rumor turns out to be just that. Full original press release about the concert and a video of Madonna’s impassioned Pussy Riot speech in Moscow after the jump.
