Shailene Woodley Applauds Malia Obama For Joining Protest at Sundance

Shailene Woodley has been super vocal in the protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline and has gotten lots of celeb support.

During Sundance Film Festival, the 25-year-old actress was surprised to learn one of those supporters was Malia Obama, who attended a protest of the pipeline.

“One of my best friend’s name is Malia and some of my friends were like ‘Shailene, Malia is over there, you should go say hi!’ And I was like ‘Yeah I know, I’ll talk to her in a minute.’ And they were like ‘No, it’s Malia Obama!” Shailene explained.

She added, “I thought it was really inspiring that no matter who you are, who your family is…it was neat to see her invested personally and separately from her family in these causes.”

Check out all that Shailene had to say in the video below…
