How celebs responded to: Paris attacks

Johannesburg - On the 13th of November 2015 the world was rocked by a suspected terror attack in Paris, France.

The attacks left nearly 140 people dead and hundreds injuried, with tens of thousands sending messages of support for the victims.

Some of these were local celebrities who united with people  around the world to #PrayForParis.

So sad to hear Parisians talk of their magically beautiful city as a war zone and place of terror and fear #PrayForParis

The scariest thing about Terror is that it doesn't have a face or a profile. Terrorists are among us, planning plotting. #PrayForParis

Praying for all our friends and people of Paris. I was just there a couple of days ago under the city's amazing energy and I don't have many words to say about this whole thing but in God there's always an answer. Positive energy for all! ????????

And while the majority offered condolences and support for the victims of the attacks, many also used the opportunity to call for the start of a conversation around other global attacks.

Selective outrage
