And on Thursday, Anne Hathaway took to the streets of Los Angeles to raise awareness for the cause.

Grabbing a megaphone, the 31-year-old took up the cry and rallied the crowd that followed her.

And it's not just Anne who is trying to put the fate of these young girls in the spotlight.

Kim Kardashian described the situation as 'heartbreaking' and posted an Instagram picture detailing the issue, while her sister Kourtney and their mother Kris Jenner also tweeted in support. 

Comedienne Amy Poehler and British singer Leona Lewis shared pictures of themselves holding signs baring the now popular hashtag '#Bring Back Our Girls.'

TV presenter Alexa Chung scrawled the message in lipstick across a mirror as a show of solidarity.

Even Michelle Obama took to Twitter, sharing a picture of herself holding up a piece of white paper with the words in bold black letters.

However, although praised by many, the First Lady came under fire for the gesture, with some branding her move frivolous. 

lol........and One Twitter follower tweeted: '@FLOTUS Nice. Are we doing anything as a world-wide community besides all this sign-holding?'
