A couple of months ago, we brought you the news that Naomi Campbell agreed to pose in a series of ads promoting fur clothing by fashion designer Dennis Basso.

Campbell had previously worked with PETA in “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaigns, but withdrew her support after the animal rights group targeted fashion designers.

Naomi added the statement, “I do like wearing fur and I still do.”

Celebrity animal rights activists are appalled and Paul McCartney has written a letter to Campbell, according to the New York Daily News.

According to Campbell, she and PETA have embraced each other with love and all is forgiven.

“Yes, I am still wearing fur,” said Campbell, “but I’ve made up with that guy from Peta.”

Don’t know what Campbell means by “made up with” but we’re sure flashing the former coat of an animal for vain fashion purposes takes a lot more than a kiss and hug for anyone-PETA person or not-to get over.

Photographed here in what seems like second skin for her, model Naomi Campbell has announced plans to star in a fur campaign for designer Dennis Basso.

Although Noami once had principles and starred in a “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign for PETA, she tossed those faster than a clothing switch at a photo shoot and criticized the group for its tactics.

“When PETA started targeting (Vogue editor) Anna Wintour and (designer) Karl Lagerfield and putting dead animals on their plate, I felt that they went too far and I thought, I didn’t want to be a part of this campaign anymore.”

She added, “I do like wearing fur and I still do.”

Well, now.

Naomi isn’t winning some over at monsterandcritics.com, where commenters are giving their two cents.

“She has brought all the negative feelings about her on herself with her disgusting actions.”

“This woman Naomi Campbell may be beautiful on the outside but inside she is very very ugly. In the past she was part of an anti-fur campaign but obviously for her it was only skin deep! Money rules and her compassion for anybody but herself is obvious. Fur only looks good on the true owner: the poor animal that was abused and tortured for a stupid coat!”
