Kelis’ Open Letter To PETA

Kelis ruffled a few feather earlier this week when photos of her surfaced wearing a furry jacket…with a hat to match. This morning, Kelis responded to PETA’s criticism with an open letter. Read it after the jump.

Good morning all!

Ok, so you’re gonna love this. The other day I got a personalized letter from PETA! Lol so after some thought I’ve decided to write one back. Goes a little something like this:

There is no humane way to kill anything, let me start there. It’s unfortunate but it’s part of life. With that being said, I would eat pterodactyl if you found some and you told me it was meaty and delicious. And after doing a very minimal amount of research……. I found out that the founder Ingrid Newkirk is completely batty. I had a feeling but she far exceeded my expectations. I mean certifiably insane! Lol this chicks will is nuts, google it – it’s a riot! Beyond the fact that I think she’s a diabetic, which means she needs insulin, which is taken from lab pigs (I know this because my sister happens to be in veterinary school), which would be completely hypocritical. It’s like don’t abuse animals unless it can help me.

I feel very strongly about a lot of things such as the sweatshops that spin cotton and the blood on their hands. Btw it’s not just the look of fur. It’s warm as hell and feels glorious, ever rubbed faux fur on your body? Nothing luxurious about that. Then the letter proceeded to name artist and designers who don’t wear real fur. Great! More for me! I don’t judge them, don’t judge me.

If I started wearing endangered animals like polar bear or orangutan then talk to me. (Which btw for the record I would not – I do believe in the preservation of endangered species) But the minks and chinchilla that quite honestly are rodents and if weren’t in the form of a coat I would demand they be put to death anyway are not an issue to me.

The death of high fashion. Ugh.

I eat meat, and in fact my mouth salivates as I type the word meat! And the paint throwing that’s just ridiculous! What if I was hurling Loubitons and Pierre Hardy’s at every sad poorly dressed person on the street? As right as I may be it’s just fanatical and crazy. And people have the right to feel as they please. What about art? Survival of the fittest. Natural selection? No let’s just let all the rodents run free and over take our cities. Oh wait they have, NY and LA in particular are infested! Why don’t u save them all from scavenging on the streets and ruining my evening strolls, take them home. Make them pets! Get off my back! Pun intended!

Underpaid minorities picking your vegetables, now that’s fine for you right? Please, fight for their rights. How about the poverty in the communities of brown people around the world. She had the nerve to say (and I quote) “get over it” talking of the issue of black people and slavery in this country verses cows being slaughtered. Is she kidding me? Lol yes she must be. Actually, she’s lucky most black people have real issues to worry about in the U.S and don’t give a crap what her delusional privileged opinions are. But she should try saying that again just for kicks n giggles on the corner of Adam Clayton Powell Blvd in Harlem n see how well people “get over it” lol.

If u want to preach do it about something worthwhile don’t waste my time trying to save the dang chipmunk.

Find a worthwhile cause like the women being maimed in these Middle Eastern countries. Or female circumcision. Or women’s rights here in America, we still get paid less for doing the same jobs as men. Quite honestly if you hate the world so much go live in the forest where no one else has to hear you complain about the perfectly good food chain the good Lord created. Everyone has the right to an opinion, and that’s mine on that!  xoxo

    haha great letter kelis. PETA folks have issues.

  2. J.C says:

    Good to see that Nas money is being well spent!

  3. Toya says:

    I agree with Kelis. We humans haven’t got all of our rights yet we’re suppose care about the well-being of every animal on earth.

    The only crime Kelis committed was against fashion. But with her, it would be the first time.

  4. Cunning Link Quest says:

    Kelis got beef with PETA!! Great! She needs to drop an album soon now that it’s hot… and by the way…

    “I eat meat, and in fact my mouth salivates as I type the word meat!” … the funniest thing in the letter.

    Bestiality, Humane Society
    Go to China, see how they dine, see what they eat…
    BETTER YET ASK PETA, WHOEVER; WHICH ANIMAL MAKES SUEDE?
    IF NOT FOR SUEDE WOULD YOU HAVE SURVIVED THE DARK AGES?
    Cannibal ways of the ancient Caucasians
    Still you like your steak tartare, pinot noir…”
    -Nas “You Can’t Stop Us Now” Untitled (the highly slept on)

    had to do it.

  10. Nathaniel says:

    lmao kelis got in that ass. sadly…if ol girl went and lived in the forest away from the humans, i don’t think the animals there would show her as much consideration as she shows them. yea, they’d maim and eat that ass up.

    sorry Ingrid. you lose.

  11. spgregory says:

    blaming others & playing the race card if we are all humans then why does it matter where we are from? and kelis least they are trying to help their cause what have you done?

  12. Nathaniel says:

    Can I get a ban on jacking on mac DIESEL’s tag line?I know it’s fun to write (I used it myself once) but he needs to copywrite that joint.

  16. LMAO says:

    HI-LA-RI-OUS !!!! Shiiit can’t blame her and i’m a vegetarian but it’s for my health and personal choice not no PETA mission (I personally don’t care if people eat meat generally, in front of me ect…) and also if I was in the desert with coyotes they wouldn’t be like “oh he doesn’t eat meat” they’d EAT ME ALIVE the same with :

    Bears
    Lions
    Tigers
    Sharks
    Piranhas
    Wolves
    Panthers (yeah even the black ones lol)
    ect….

    That’s the (sorry to be a Grown Simba) Circle of Life. And um quick question so all the people throughout human history who wore animal pelts for oh I don’t know HEAT what does PETA say about them? They gonna invent a time machine now and go Quantum Leap on they asses lol

    Chic is ugly but i agree with 99%. BS on that woman right. Oprah a billionaire. Shut up chic with your woman rights.

  35. Ac@pella! says:

    I gotta admit, Kelis rubbed me the wrong way with that child support shit against Nas, but this letter is funny and true as hell1 I can’t fuckin’ stand PETA, especially for what they did against Mike Vick and the shit they said about Obama. Fuck them. It’s just a bunch of tree-huggin’ modern day hippies that never show their faces but always throw stones and hide their hands. “Get over it” PETA, mufuckaz gon’ rock fur til the end of time. As long as the animals keep reproducing and multiplying, ya’ll ain’t got shit to worry about. Cave men rocked it, cowboys rocked it, hell, Jesus prolly had somethin’ fur back in the day. Try worryin’ about real issues at stake say, those ppl down in Haiti experiencing an international version of Katrina figting for their lives while no one (white) gives a fuck…

  36. bLUEPRINTs says:

    I Was gonna comment on how Kelis is a money grubbing hoe, definition of a gold digger and how the world been tellin this nigga he was a sucker from the jump, But I cant ignore that gay shit posted above, Take that fuckery off here, This is RapRadar, Not Gay AssRapeRadar.

  37. Lerix says:

    Not feeling this letter, i agree she has her right to her opinion, but we live in an ager where we dont need fur to survive, sad…

  38. Drucifer says:

    God, she just sounds like a bitch, I feel worse for Nas after reading this, he probably had to put up with this kinda attitude everyday………Enough to drive a lesser man to suicide….

    And I dont disagree with what she said, but the way she wrote it, all smart-ass and what not, you can tell she’d be a bitch to have to deal with in real life………Nas probably went on prozac puttin up with her attitude

  39. dani says:

    I agree with the letter. All of her points were valid. Although I don’t think there is a real need to wear fur, and I’m completely against animal torture, it’s about time someone stood up to PETA! They can’t throw paint on people and do WHATEVER they want without giving people the respect to do whatever they want as well.

  40. mac DIESEL SN-24824 says:

    PETA is hypocritical but Kelis ain’t thze best person to fight them as this ain’t the brightest letter I’ve ever read.

    DO HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!!

  41. louis says:

    Kelis you´re an idiot. Try to inform yourself well before you criticize an organization that has helped millions of animals around the world, which is way more than you will ever do in your life. Your letter is childish, how can you say fur feels great? have you even seen how badly these animals are stripped of their fur?? THEIR fur!
    Your letter is sooo so dumb, next time you want to say something reread it they publish it, it makes you look stupid.

  42. illmatic since 1982 says:

    so this is what she spends the payments on?

  43. amazinace says:

    I LIKE ANIMALS TOO, BUT NIGGAZ ON DOPE IN THE HOOD EVERYDAY. THE HOOD DON’T MANUFACTURE DRUGS, SOME STARVING IDIOTS MAKE MONEY CAUSE SOME PEOPLE USE THEM. WHAT ABOUT THE “People for the Ethical Treatment of Humans” P.E.T.H? IF THEY GO SO HARD FOR ANIMALS THEY COULD DO WONDERS FOR HUMANS. THEY THINK WE ANIMALS ANYWAY RIGHT.

  44. DJFricktion says:

    Kelis just made herself sound completely ignorant. I’m sure Newkirk’s words were taken out of context. Slavey in America is over, massive, industrial-scale animal slaughter is still going on daily in the world. PETA doesn’t stand for animal rights instead of human rights. It’s possible to be passionate about more than one social issue. I’m appalled by sweat-shops and all the various violations of human rights that still go on in our world, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t also care about the rights of animals. PETA has done a lot to further their specific cause; I haven’t seen Kelis contribute anything to the world but music.

  45. CLARK says:

    Wearing fur is fine with me but Kelis is an idiot.

  46. Dark Hater says:

    FUCK U KELIS U FUCKIN DUMB HOE!!! I HOPE SOMEONE WOULD DO THE SAME THING THAT IS DONE TO THE ANIMAL U WEAR ON UR FUCKIN EMPTY HEAD!!! I THINK SHE HAS NO IDEA HOW THEY MAKE THE FURS, LET ME TELL YA: FIRST THEY BRAKE THEM ANIMALS ALL THEIR BONES AND PULL THEIR SKIN OFF AND ALL THAT WHEN THEYRE STILL BREATHING!!!!!!!!! AND WHY IS SHE TALKIN BOUT MEAT?????? WHEN THEY PULL THE SKIN OFF OF THE ANIMALS, THIS ANIMALS END UP IN TRASH AFTER THAT CUZ NOBODY EATS A FOX AND ALL THAT OTHER FUR ANIMALS!!! I COULDNT BELIEVE MY EYES WHEN I SAW MOST OF THE COMMENTS HERE THAT ARE STILL SUPPORTING KELIS AND HER VIEW! THEY KILL BLAMELESS ANIMALS ONLY CUZ PEOPLE LIKE KELIS WANT TO KEEP THEIR UGLY PUSSIES WARM???!!! C’MOOOOON BITCH, SPEND THE MONEY U ROBBED FROM (the GOD MC) NaS ON BUYING A DILDO BITCHHH!!! AND IF YALL DIDNT KNOW, MOST OF THE RELIGIONS SAY THAT THE UNNECESSARILY SMITING OF ANIMALS IS NOT ALLOWED, SO IN OTHER WORDS, ALL THE PEOPLE WHO KILL ANIMALS FOR FURS AND THE PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT THAT WILL BURN IN HELL!!! YEAH THATS RIGHT KELIS, WHEN U DIE THE DEVILS GONNA TAKE UR SKIN OFF AGAIN AND AGAIN, EVERY SECOND, EVERY HOUR, EVERY YEAR, FOREVER!!!!!! BURN IN HELL BITCHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! PS: NaS 4 LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  47. Dark Hater says:

    AND BTW WHY IS KELIS TALKIN BOUT ”FOOD CHAIN”??? U R BLAMIN FOR THE FUR U WEAR BITCH AND NOT FOR THE FOOD U EAT!!! AND PLEEEASE TELL ME WHYYY THE HELLL IS KELIS TALKIN BOUT ”FEMALE CIRCUMCISION” AND ”WOMEN RIGHTS” WHEN SHES ADDRESSING PETA, AN ORGANIZATION THAT SUPPORTS AAANIMAL RIGHTS??? THATS LIKE SOMEONE TELLS THE UNICEF THAT THEY BETTER HAVE TO SUPPORT THE ANIMAL RIGHTS INSTEAD OF HELPING POOR CHILDREN……………………!!! ENOUGH SAID…KELIS SHOTS WITH THAT SENTENCES IN HER OWN LEG…HOW RETARDED CAN SOMEONE BE??? PLEASE KELIS DO US A FAVOR AND KILL YOURSELF BIAAATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

  48. So Icy Boi! says:

  49. Korey K says:

    Damn Kelis just lost a couple points in my book not for wearing fur or being a meat eater but for typing like a third grader.

  50. I LOVE KELIS!!!! ROCK ON SIS. KEEP BEING YOU!!!

  51. atl says:

    I can’t believe Kelis wrote this letter! She should have issued a statement through her publicist or something. She writes on a 3rd grade level. She’s definitely not smarter than a 5th grader. I see why Nas dumped her. She’s dumb as hell. Here is a tip for Kelis. Stop writing letters and read a book.

  52. Dark Hater says:

    @So Icy Homo Boy IF U LIKE UR MEAT SO MUCH THEN U CAN SUCK MY BIG JUICY MEATY DICK U BITCH ASS MOTHERFUCKER!!! U KNOW THE SENTENCE U R WHAT U EAT?

(N BTW GET A GIRLFRIEND N STOP FUCK OTHER MENS ASSHOLES!!!) MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

  53. The Misses says:

    I say good for her! PETA is extra lame and a waste of time. I am vegetarian because it’s good for my health not because I am worried about these animals…it’s called population control. And PETA should find something else to fight for, how about all of these starving children all over the world…Stand up for them and stop attacking people for wearing something that keeps them warm! It’s called Survival. Now if she wears something ugly, like that blue hair then by all means please go and help her…Please!

  54. So Icy Boi! says:

    @Dark Hater U GAY!!!! …..i bet want even fuk a hairy pussy?? because it got hair on it …..get some pussy stop worrying about Peta ….and if you eat meat? KILL ya self

  55. Truth will out says:

  56. WACTHMYEGO says:

    YOU ALL NEED TO WATCH YOUR EGOS http://watchmyego.com

    LETS GO!

    and honestly, i dont care how she writes, its the content and i am surprised she didnt dig herself a hole. she did it well. props to kelis, you impressed me.

    but seriously, get over it.

  57. BONEKRUSHER says:

    CHECK OUT THIS NEW KELIS VIDEO:

    DAMN I LOOK GOOD IN THIS BABY HUMAN LEATHER JACKET. THIS BABY WUZ JUST CHILLING INA STROLLER. YALL LIKE MY ABORTED FETUS NECKLACE? IS ANYONE’S GRANDPA ABOUT TO DIE? I NEED SOME SAGGY, WRINKLED HUMAN-LEATHER PANTS.

  58. Graham says:

    @ Dark Hater

    “CUZ OF HOMOS LIKE U THIS WORLD IS SUCH A FUCKED UP PLACE…ITS ALL BOUT RESPECTIN EACH OTHER”

    Number one- what a ridiculously hypocritical statement, how are you respecting someone when slandering them and yelling obscenities?

    Number two- Don’t ever use the word homo or gay in a derogatory way ever again. By doing so you are disrespecting an entire lifestyle. The rest of the civilized world stopped using the ‘N’ word as it is offensive so please so this minority the same respect.

  59. […] so does Kelis, so much so that she wrote a pretty damning open letter to PETA calling on them to care less about rodents and more about “Underpaid minorities […]
