3 of 8
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."
-
Lady Gaga
Gaga 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 suspects she might be a "turncoat."
-
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.
-
Victoria Beckham
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.

Who is a boy ?
A boy is d most beautiful part of God’s creation.
He starts compromising at a very tender age.
He sacrifices his chocolates & toys for his sister.
Then he sacrifices his pocket money 4 his girlfrnd.
He also sacrifies his cigrate and beer to frnz.
He sacrifices his full youth for his wife and children without complaing silently.
Boyz life is tough and ful of sacrifice.
hardly seems fair and ethical for poor fido...
in fact - if lady gaga wore a coat made up entirely of dogs balls they couldnt complain..... and for our aussie and UK readers - yes that coat would definitely be "the dogs bollocks"
EDIT: oh yeah - besides, they are ANIMALS, not our companions... if you died on a locked room with little fido he would be happily munching on you in a day or two...
little fido would probably rather his nuts were still attached ot his body as well... it is NOT the 'best' thing for them to chop them off - i know little fido can't talk, but I bet hes on my side on this...
dogs in europe live aorund a year longer than in nth america on average - only significant difference is americans are brainwashed into neutering their dogs where the rate in europe is far lower. Neutered dogs may not get cancer in the parts they have had ripped out of them, but it seems sterilization has a significant impact on both the endocrine and immune systems of dogs
What PETA really mean
People
Eating
Tasty
Animals
PETA is the biggest HYPOCRITE around ..
(and runs the highest kill ratio in shelters) ..
All of these are irrelevant .. inane ..
It would be a RELIEF to actually have an answer choice ..
made mandatory .. to polls like this that states ..
(Don't CARE .. STOP Publicizing the antics of idiots .. OTHER Choice .. )
They really hate KFC with the passion
Hey, I got this used ship for sale .... need little bit TLC and maybe some paint ....
Seriously, let them get butthurt for all I care, I'll simply laugh at them. And if my lovely Lady Gaga has pissed them off further, you go, girl!! Woot!! I couldn't be happier if she has, and only provides another reason I love her to bits.
So it's okay to euthanize animals and throw them in the garbage, but eating meat and wearing fur - which actually utilizes animal meat and fur rather than simply killing said animal - is absolutely terrible.... makes TONS of sense to me.
If you get a chance, a great exposition on PETA is "Penn & Teller's Bullsh*t!" episode on PETA. Everything PETA tries to hide is revealed, and even some interviews with PETA members. Stupidity... it's everywhere.
People who would kill a group of humans if it meant saving the lives of a few lab rats....
Every one of them is about the "ME" factor.
They need to wear fur like a hole in the head. Personally all of them have holes in their heads! May they all learn some hard lessons in life!!!
I am all for fur. Its an issue of free choice. You cannot tell me that killing animals for food is any less cruel than for fur. What about Eskimos? Are they evil? If somebody chooses to wear it, then that is their choice. It doesn't warrant being attacked and flourbombed, even if it is Kim Kardashian.
Its all very well saying that people should use fake fur, but the products that fake fur come from are not biodegradeable, so what PETA are trying to say is that they would rather see you contribute to climate change than use the eco friendly real deal.
Fur farming may appear cruel, but making Asian children sit in dark rooms and sew clothes is cruel. Bombing other peoples countries is cruel. Causing ecological disasters in someone else's country is cruel. Forcing women to get abortions is cruel. Systematic rape in the DRC is cruel.
Why aren't there groups to flourbomb those people?
How many times I wish I didn't know what goes on daily on a Chinese fur farm.
It is a widespread belief (actually biological fact exploited by the 100% soulless who lack the first trace of compassion for unspeakable suffering in others-) that removing the skin while the animal is STILL ALIVE is easiest as the heart is still pumping blood through the tissues. (Never mind the poor creature is fully conscious of what is happening to them-)
ALSO as most E. Asian countries are Buddhist they don't have kill shelters as we know them in the West because that doctrine teaches that all killing is wrong. Yet spaying and neutering is also not taken seriously there very much so you have stray cats and dogs running everywhere, as well as pet owners who allow their pets to roam free to cut down on the cost of feeding them.
Add the Raccoon Dogs captured wild in E Asia and Japan and bred on farms ALL OVER E. Europe and part of W. Asia, add it all up and the cat and dog fur AND meat trade are huge all over Asia and no, they aren't real keen on killing the animals they skin- they just proceed while fully conscious, alive and in plain sight of those waiting to be *next*. I will show you the video if I can get one to load.
OK. There. So much for ignorance. Sorry to bur...

OK. There. So much for ignorance. Sorry to burst your bubble. Oh and "fake fur" that looks too real... probably is. They have gotten very good at what they do.
That's why well over 60% to 70% of fur sold the world over comes from these torture centers. Did I mention they can destroy their tracks? Yes. Just have a garment made with their raw product *produced*, i.e. stitched together in Italy, Canada or even Malaysia and the label on it says that with no reference to China whatever. People are so gullible.

I don't think PETA can trult distinguish between hunting for food and hunting for fashion. They must believe 'if you want meat go to a supermarket'! An animal eaten certainly doesn't have much use for its pelt, so it would be a waste of an earth resource. To be so maniacally tethered to one absolute ideology is a waste of human resources.
