Major congrats are in order for Selena Gomez and Rihanna!
The super-talented musicians are headlining the Global Citizen Festival on September 24. *insert clapping emoji here*
Global Citizen wants to eliminate world poverty by 2030, and Sel couldn’t be more grateful to perform.
“I couldn’t be more honored to participate in the Global Citizen Festival as it continues to help solve important issues around the world. I am particularly proud to be involved this year as the focus is on education. As an artist with many young fans, I believe everyone has the right to an education.”
And cue the freakouts — Usher and Ellie Goulding are slated to perform as guests!
The goal of the festival is to increase awareness around issues like education, health, clean water access, women’s equality, sanitation, hunger and the environment.
