Celebrity Quotes on Abortion
MADONNA
Although Madonna doesn’t agree with us on abortion, she did recognize the beauty on a new child in her womb – a daughter whom she named Lourdes. 
“I was stunned when I saw on the ultrasound a tiny, living creature spinning around in my womb.  Tap-dancing, I think. Waving its tiny arms around and trying to suck its thumb. I could have sworn I heard it laughing.”

MEL GIBSON
On a 1990 Barbara Walters Special, actor Mel Gibson stated his opposition to birth control, infidelity and abortion. “God is the only One who knows how many children we should have, and we should be ready to accept them. One can’t decide for oneself who comes into this world and who doesn’t. That decision doesn’t belong to us.” In a land full of scandals and month-long marriages, Mel has been married to his wife  Robyn for 19 years, and they recently welcomed their seventh child into the world.
KATHY IRELAND
While appearing on the TV show “Politically Incorrect,” Kathy Ireland participated in a debate about abortion “rights” and whether Florida should approve “Choose Life” license plates. Now against abortion, Kathy defended babies in the womb by saying:
“I was once pro-choice and the thing that changed my mind was, I read my husband’s biology books, medical books, and what I learned. . . At the moment of conception, a life starts. And this life has its own unique set of DNA, which contains a blueprint for the whole genetic makeup. The sex is determined. We know there’s a life because
it’s growing and changing.”
LAKITA GARTH
1995 Miss Black California
“If you’re pregnant, don’t compound the problem by seeking an abortion. Getting an abortion doesn’t solve anything. You are much better off in that situation to put the baby up for adoption because you might be able to help a couple that can’t have children.”
Lakita is a talented singer, dancer and motivational speaker. In 1998, Lakita was invited to speak to Congress about the high cost of the "sexual revolution" and why she's saving sex for marriage. Click here to read Lakita's amazing speech.
NOELIA GARCIA
Model
This glamorous French model, whose clients have included top names such as L’Oreal and Air France, is an active member of the French human rights group Le Treve de Dieu (God’s Reprieve). Noelia found that models she knew were frequently pressured by their agencies to have abortions and she was appalled by it. “Modeling uses women as objects. I was surrounded by other models having abortions and became disgusted by it. I have used my body and my face to sell products. Now I am using them to protect unborn children against the consumer society that chucks away babies it does not want.”
BROOKE SHIELDS
Actress
“Too many people use abortion as a form of birth control. And that’s very wrong. I  could never, ever have an abortion.”

Ben Folds
Singer/Songwriter
Did you hear "Brick" by Ben Folds Five? "Yeah, I'm kind of surprised it's on the radio." That's what Ben Folds said when his hit song, "Brick", raced up the charts. Why? Because the song's about abortion. But Ben says it's about more than that. He says it's about his own personal experience. "It's the story of my senior year of high school, basically. More so, it's about the fact that it happens and there are emotional byproducts. There's a reason why it's a big political issue - because it damages lives."
