Ambassador for female empowerment
In 2023, Lady Blackbird released her single Woman which is an anthem of female empowerment and was recorded to celebrate International Women’s Day.
Speaking to The Sun about the importance of this song, Lady Blackbird said: “Being a woman, it sometimes feels that we are going backwards.
“It really does feel like we might go to times like The Handmaid’s Tale. Saying that doesn’t sound so far-fetched. It’s quite scary.â€
She added: “Woman is perfect for what it says. It is just perfect for that moment,.”
Strictly performance
On October 27, 2024, Strictly Come Dancing viewers were thrilled when Lady Blackbird performed on the show.
She belted out her song Reform as the professional dancers performed around her in the famous ballroom.
As Lady Blackbird sang, the pros danced to a Beetlejuice-inspired routine.
