Kim Kardashian
Kardashian has been flour-bombed on the red carpet over her love of furs, and now PETA tells Gaga: "By wearing those dumb furs in a heat wave, you're making yourself a target just like the mindless Kim Kardashian."

Kanye West
“Someone tell PETA my mink is draggin’ on the floor,” West raps in his song "Theraflu." PETA fired back: "What’s draggin' on the floor is Kanye’s reputation as a man with no empathy for animals or human beings."
-
The Olsen Twins
PETA lashed out at the twins for their use of fur in their fashion line The Row: "If it looks like a troll and acts like a troll, it's probably a Trollsen Twin -- or someone wearing one of their new $17,000 totes."

Jennifer Lopez
Last year, Lopez posed for Vanity Fair in an Arctic fox pelt. PETA responded: "People who wear fur are either ignorant or arrogant about animal suffering. J-Lo is situated firmly in the arrogant camp."

Rihanna
When RiRi wore ostrich feathers last year, PETA reportedly said: "We keep hoping that Rihanna, a victim of violence herself, will learn to open her heart and start empathizing with the suffering of others."
-
Paris Hilton
In 2005, PETA named the heiress the worst-dressed celeb in America. "Now we know what happens to all of Paris Hilton’s cast-off pets," the group said at the time.

In 2010, PETA told Vogue that they sent Beckham a video to persuade her not to use animal skins in her fashion line.

Lady Gaga loves going naked, but she'd rather wear fur. The star has been spotted wearing a fur coat twice in the last couple of weeks -- one of which she hinted could possibly be the real thing -- and PETA is pretty PO'd.
"Many of your gay fans, I among them, have long admired what you told Ellen: 'I hate fur, and I don't wear fur,'" Dan Mathews, Senior Vice President of the People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals, wrote in a message to Gaga obtained by Radar Online.
"I included a link because these recent photos of you in fox and rabbit and with a wolf carcass make it appear that you have amnesia," he continued. "What happened? Are your stylists telling you that it's fake, or are you a turncoat? By wearing those dumb furs in a heat wave, you’re making yourself a target just like the mindless Kim Kardashian."
Last week, Gaga was spotted in a bright pink fur (which was probably fake), and this week, she wore another fur, but refused to confirm whether it was real or faux. "For those press and such who are writing about whether or not my fur is actually real, please don't forget to credit the designer HERMES. Thank You! LOVE, gaga," she tweeted.

Lol. I really don't see how it's not that big of a deal to eat animals but it is to keep their fur. When an animal is being used for meat, you might as well take its hide. You're killing them either way, and human beings do not need meat to live, so meat is not a necessity (I'd have been dead years ago).
But that aside, PETA are a bunch of crazies who don't realize how the animal kingdom works...Why don't they go protest the unnecessary killing of animals by other animals?Don't think it happens that animals kill things without eating them?
That being said, anyone who owns vintage furs, why wouldn't they wear it? Something they inherited from a grandparent, perhaps? Would you rather it sit in a closet, a complete and utter waste, or would you rather it actually be worn, put to use? Seems to me like you'd be honouring the dead animal more if you actually used it for something rather than just throwing it away like a piece of trash.
You do realize that without testing on animals we would not have most of the medicines that we do today.
PETA will have beef with you for swatting a fly...
