PETA Responds To Kelis

The animal lovers over at PETA responded to Kelis’ open letter. Here’s what they had to say.

I hope that this finds you well. I’m writing today because we’ve been inundated with phone calls and e-mails from folks alerting us to photos of you wearing a fur hat and coat while out in London over the weekend.

Please know that animals killed for their fur endure immense suffering. Foxes, minks, coyotes, and rabbits—and even dogs and cats—are bludgeoned, strangled, genitally electrocuted, and even skinned alive for their pelts. We hope that you’ll take a moment to watch an undercover exposé of fur farms, hosted by Eva Mendes, at http://www.peta.org/FeatureEvaMendes.asp.

If you enjoy the look of fur, renowned designers, including Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Stella McCartney, and Vivienne Westwood, couple fashion with compassion and use only faux fur in their lines. We hope you found this information helpful and will join countless celebrities, like Charlize Theron, Khloe Kardashian, Nia Long, Kid Sister, Pink, and Michelle Obama, in publicly swearing off fur.

Warm regards, PETA

    Polite and informative… Go PeTA!

  2. derek says:

    this is not the response. This is the initial letter that came before Kelis open letter. With that said, I decided I dont like Kelis anymore.

  3. SMH says:

    who cares? people are dying in Haiti, I could care less if a minks get slaughtered to make a coat that I may never afford in my lifetime… SMH

  4. Toya says:

    Sorry, PeTA but I still care more about human life. And if I could afford a mink coat, you can bet I’m getting the real thing. Never been a fan of fake stuff. (Sale or clearence absolutely but not fake.)

  5. Who Cares? says:

    What about supporting sweat shops? All the clothes and products made in third world countries, are usually made under the worst possible conditions. Some of the owrkers in those countries are kids. But how many Peta employees or supporters do you think have worn or used something that said “Made In China”? Or does the human race not care for other humans?

  6. dickinyamom says:

    ^It’s 6 billion people in the world who gives shit about sweat shops, why do people in impoverish nations keep reproducing knowing they can’t support life, fuck people and fuck your mom LOL

  7. BrandonTex says:

    Some of you people are fucking disgusting…i dont understand how people can watch something like that and not correlate that behaviour to humans, which is being done by the american military to the “insurgents” of their own country. It shows how much we have learned as a species…not much at all…if the theory of the planet having a spirit is true, its a nightmare to think what it has coming down the pipeline for mankind… good luck to you facist pigs who do not mind murdering others because somehow they dont directly relate to your life…its funny how people forget that we are at the top of the food chain yes, which means we are the most dependant on those below us….show some fuckin respect assholes.

  8. RapMusic23 says:

    its horrible to see animals being treated so badly.In kina they skin them alive after being hold in small cages without water and food,crawaling around in their own shit.disgusting

  9. lup says:

    ^ Show some fuckin respect to the millions of human fucking lives being taken everyday.

  10. dickinyamom says:

    ^^^ who cares it’s the circle of life right?? We all can’t survive therefore if we did we all would suffer, its natural selection

  11. dickinyamom says:

    I’m trying to make a valid point, you can’t place a value on life therefor you can’t say a life is worth more then the next just because you have a physical or emotional attachment to it, we live, breathe and bleed just like everything else on this planet and you need to have me type of respect for all life becauset’s fragile and can be taken away without warrant. Show some respect for peoples morality and people will show some to yours…get it dickheads?

  20. HAHA MAN says:
