To their credit, attending celebrities didn't try to steal the moment or make it about themselves. Some showed up to put their familiar face behind a powerful movement. Others pointed back at the brave teens who turned their grief into something positive.

Miley Cyrus also performed one of her own songs, "The Climb," at the D.C. march. That song was said to be a favorite of Alyssa Alhadeff, a freshman who was killed in the Parkland shooting.
