March 8th is International Women’s Day (IWD), which is an extra-special time to celebrate women worldwide. Fun fact: The first IWD was observed in 1911 and was officially recognized by the United Nations (UN) in 1975!
Let’s ring in over 100 years of International Women’s Day with some GIFs to help you shout out the women in your life.
Are you the hype person in your group chat? Check out these GIFs of talented female artists! Drop a little classic girl power, Ginger-Spice-Style, to let them know they *got* this! Or crown your bestie, making them feel like Queen Rihanna! Tell the women in your life that they’re bada**es — that songs like “Stronger” by Britney Spears are about them. Or just make everyone’s spirits fly like Phoebe Bridgers! Because the women in your life deserve it!!
Because they deserve it, we always want women to realize just how big of superstars they are. What better place to look than female-acting-powerhouses? Drop a healthy dose of optimism with actress Laverne Cox. Give some cheers to the ladies in your life by showcasing those dance moves from Florence Pugh. Go full superhero, telling them that they’re your personal Wonder Woman (either Gal Gadot or Lynda Carter will do too) . And let them know they’re *killing it* with a little round of applause via Meryl Steep and J-Lo! Trust us — once you build up the women in your life, you can bowl them over with laughter!
While we’re in the mood for laughter…these funny ladies get us every time. Try to keep a straight face when dropping this Kate McKinnon Saturday Night Live moment. Celebrating a mom in your life or just want to send some sick dance moves? Ali Wong’s standup set has you covered. And speak to your BFF in the way only you can, with this extra *special* Broad City GIF. Music, drama, comedy? Women literally do it all. And we would be remiss not to mention some of the amazing women throughout women’s history that paved the way!
You can’t celebrate International Women’s Day without the queen herself, Maya Angelou! Did you know Angelou was the first female presidential inauguration poet? Get down with writer, feminist, and reproductive rights activist Gloria Steinem, or shake it off with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (aka “AOC”) — the latter of which is the youngest woman to serve in the United States Congress! While we’re on politics, let’s not forget the first woman to hold the title of Vice President: Kamala Harris!
Whatever your mood is this International Women’s Day, Tenor has the perfect GIF to celebrate you or the women in your life! Happy IWD!
