Gwyneth Paltrow Endorses Items With Fur: Does Hubby Chris Martin Know About This?

Estee Lauder Spokesmodels Elizabeth Hurley, Gwyneth Paltrow, Carolyn Murphy and Hilary Rhoda Appear at Bloomingdale's NY

Gwyneth Paltrow teamed up with Italian designer Tod’s and has been modeling fox fur and fur lined boots in advertisements. Obviously, PETA is not too pleased:

“We’ve written to her many times, and sent her videos showing how animals suffer for fur, but have never received a response,” said a spokesperson for the group.

“Apparently her beauty really is only skin deep. Gwyneth Paltrow won’t be the apple of her daughter’s eye if she continues to flaunt fur. It’s a terrible example to set for a young child.”

But the story is even better, as she is the wife of Coldplay’s Chris Martin, a vegetarian.

Sources say she may be jeopardizing her friendship with vegetarians and animal lovers, such as Stella McCartney. And we already know how she feels about the whole fur thing.

Stella McCartney Not Into Furry Breasts At All

British Fashion Awards - Arrivals

She may be smiling here, but that wasn’t case when she saw a very offensive ad containing one of her designer bras.

Stella McCartney, designer of vegan fashion and daughter of Beatles great Sir Paul McCartney, was absolutely horrified to see an ad for Hockley with a model wearing one of her bras and a mink coat.

Strict vegetarian just like dear old dad, she designs cruelty free clothing and is also helping with the revitalization of her late mother, Linda McCartney’s food line.

Stella was obviously furious.

“It goes against everything I stand for,” she told a source.

A little bit of anger and a little bit of threatening with legal action resulted in the ad being pulled.

And who wears their bra showing underneath their coat anyway? Sigh…

Olympian Amanda Beard Prefers Nudity To Fur

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, August 6th, 2008 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Fur.

Ahem…she sure looks comfortable in her own skin.

Joining the long list of celebs to strip for animal rights causes, Olympic swimmer Amanda Beard posed naked in front of an American flag in Beijing for a PETA advertisement.

“I have seen a lot of the videos, and (it) brings me to tears,” she said. “What (some people) think is pretty is actually something that’s very gruesome and gross.”

With her sleek toned physique, being labeled one of the sexiest athletes, and appearances in Sports Illustrated and FHM magazines, this swimmer is definitely anything but gross.

FUR Get Me Not Christina Applegate Expected To Recover From Breast Cancer

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, August 4th, 2008 in Actresses, Fur.

“Samantha Who?” star Christina Applegate is undergoing treatment for breast cancer, but is expected to fully recover, according to her publicist.

Fortunately, the disease was caught in an early stage. Ironically, she is scheduled to appear in the Stand Up To Cancer Telethon next month, which now will probably be an even more personal experience than for some other stars also participating.

Last Holiday season, Applegate joined forces with PETA for a very provocative Christmas e-card, urging holiday shoppers not to buy fur as gifts. The card, shown above, reads, “Cross cruelty off your shopping list by avoiding fur coats, collars, and cuffs (unless it’s fake, of course).”
