Tanya Tagaq Twitter: Canadian Singer Has Best Response To Breastfeeding Shamers

Tanya Tagaq isn't afraid to speak her mind. And when it comes to breastfeeding in public, she has the absolute best response for any haters.

I used to throat-sing at people when they tried to shame me for breast feeding in public. They went away quickly.

Tagaq is an award-winning Inuk throat singer. For anyone who hasn't experienced this haunting art form, here's the video from her Polaris-winning album "Animism."

And here's another taste of her emotional performances from a Tedx event.

The 40-year-old was born in Cambridge Bay in Nunavut and is mom to two daughters, Naia and Inuuja. She even has both their names tattooed on her wrists.

Her single tweet on breastfeeding in public got a lot of attention on Twitter and much support.

@tagaq breastfed mine anywhere, any time. No hiding under blankets. No apologies ever. My boobs, my kids.

@tagaq @bikeasana they need to include a throat-singing option in prenatal classes.

However, her technique might not scare off her biggest fans.

@tagaq how can that can be bad? unless you did it loud and very close to their ears.. nope I'd still shame you so I could hear you ;)
