Smashing Pumpkins Reunite: Colonel Sanders Brings Them Together
Written by Vegetarian Star on April 6th, 2009 in Animal Issues, Bands, Male Musicians, Male Singers.
Singer Billy Corgan and former drummer Jimmy Chamberlin of the Smashing Pumpkins have reunited. But only to speak out against Kentucky Fried Chicken.
The two musicians have become the latest celebrities to sign the petition against KFC due to the manner in which the company treats its chickens before and during slaughter.
Crammed cages with no room to move around, beaks cut off baby birds, and being held upside down with their throats slits are just a few of the ways PETA says KFC inhumanely raises and kills birds that later show up on the menu.
Jimmy recently announced his departure from the band, leaving Billy the last man standing.
The two follow the footsteps of many celebrities that have chosen to speak out against KFC, including Pamela Anderson, Rise Against, and Russell Simmons.
