Anyone who knows me knows I am anti-fur. I rarely ever agree with Peta because I think they made the animal rights movement a big joke to most folks. I remember the first Clinton Inauguration and Aretha perfomed several songs wearing multiple full length fur coats of many different species. I was totally outraged even though I was a huge Clinton supporter. I have had no respect for Aretha Franklin ever sense and honestly was never a fan of her style of singing. And being more honest when I was very young my husband bought me a fur coat. That fur coat is now used to shelter stray cats and I hope everyone reading considers creating some area in their garage using your old fur coats as warm places for strays to survive. Please leave our some food everyday for them too.
"Marilyn Manson, Eva Longoria and Kate Moss also make Peta's worst-dressed list. PETA thinks Aretha Franklin is no queen of soul when it comes to wearing fur. Franklin was crowned this year’s worst-dressed celebrity by the animal rights organization. Her crime: wearing “yet another vulgar fur” at the Grammy Awards. “... you looked as if you were going to perform ‘I Am the Walrus’ by the Beatles,” People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals said Wednesday of Franklin’s appearance. “You might be a queen, but you don’t know jack about compassion.” “How ’bout some R-E-S-P-E-C-T for animals?” PETA added.
The other offenders are Marilyn Manson, Eva Longoria (“in her trashy furs, she looks like the streetwalker of Wisteria Lane”), Lindsay Lohan, Kate Moss and Kylie Minogue. PETA called Minogue cold-blooded for toting a python purse. As for Lohan, the group remarked: “‘I Know Who Killed Me’ isn’t just the title of Lindsay Lohan’s latest bomb, it’s the cry of the animals snuffed out so this ‘Mean Girl’ can pose in their pelts.” Christina Ricci, Martha Stewart and Alicia Keys have said they’ve given up wearing fur since being singled out by PETA in previous years."
