Vegetarian Star

Animal activist and vegetarian Brigitte Bardot has never been hesitant to express her opinions about the fur industry.

And during a recent interview when she was asked what she thought about women who wore fur, Bardot responded, “The women who carry fur these days are idiots. Wild animals are bred in small cages where they go crazy because they cannot lead any kind of natural lives. They are imprisoned in concentrated breeding farms. Minks are gassed, foxes are electrocuted… this complete industry is cruel, barbaric and absolutely useless.”

Point taken.

If you’re the compassionate and intelligent type, you’re obviously anti real fur and would probably love to know what stores and companies sell the real deal.

When making your next fashion decisions, refer to the Humane Society of the United State’s list of fur free designers and retailers.

Abercrombie & Fitch, for example, stated in an email in 2007 that all of its furs were fake.

And Ed Hardy even went so far as to state, “As someone who cares about animals, I am deeply offended by and opposed to the inherent cruelty of animal fur.”

So guess that means Jon Gosselin‘s favorite clothing line is safe.

Take a look at the list, carry it in your pocket when making your business decisions and never worry about Brigitte calling you an idiot.

Aretha Franklin performed at the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting recently all bundled up for the winter.

Voted Fugliest Fur Hag in 2008 for her critter collection, one might automatically guess the Woolly Mammoth costume Aretha wore was created from real animals who got no R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

But people change.

Could Aretha have wised up and realized that a diva of soul wearing fur is like a diva wearing the same outfit twice.

What do you think?

Is Aretha fur real?

Or is she faking it?

Actress and Playboy model Shauna Sand stepped out Madeo’s restaurant in Beverly Hills, California recently with a companion on her arm.

Let’s hope this companion is as phony as a Playmate’s breasts and Shauna is sporting fake fur.

Although Hugh Hefner‘s girlfriends may not mind being cramped up in the mansion, animals kept in cages on fur farms definitely mind their lack of freedom and pain and suffering they endure when killed for the pelts.

What do you think?

Is Shauna fur real?

Please, please, please let it be fake!

Olympic skater Tai Babilonia recently skated in Rockefeller Ice Skating Rink in New York City to support a PETA “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur,” campaign. Not only does is this woman an incredible beauty and athlete, she’s smart and compassionate to know that wearing fur makes a triple lutz look like a triple klutz. The rink may be cool, but fur farms and killing an animal for fashion is colder than ice. Great job, Tai! Check out other photos below.

Simon Cowell knew Linda McCartney faux sausages had the X Factor.

But if his assistant and X Factor mentor Sinitta is wearing real fur trim, she definitely isn’t a star.

What is with this bizarre looking accessory on her coat, anyway?

Seems as if an animal is crawling around her neck, hoping to pop out any minute to get its 5 minutes of fame on TV.

Of course, Sinitta probably knows the only way to wear a fur is to wear one more artificial than John and Edward’s (aka “Divas of Dublin”) gel preserved hairdos.

Your vote counts.

Is Sinitta keeping her X Factor by faking it?

Or is she fur real?

Chester Bennington Linkin Park "Ink Not Mink" PETA

Lead vocalist for Linkin Park and Dead By Sunrise Chester Bennington has bared his decorated pecs in an anti fur ad for PETA, Ink Not Mink.

We’d love to know the stories behind all of Chester’s tattoos and he would like fans to know the story behind fur farms and the fur industry.

“Electrocuting animals, skinning them while they’re alive—these are acts of inhumanity. Because it’s out of sight, it’s usually out of mind for most people, and we need to show our respect for … all creatures of this world.”

Watch the video below for more of Chester’s thoughts on animals.

Eva Mendes recently teamed up with PETA to launch a new anti fur campaign in Los Angeles.

Eva once bared her own fur in an ad for the animal rights organization and said she’d be interested in doing a threesome anti-fur ad with Morrissey and Jennifer Aniston.

We’re still waiting for that one to come out.

In the meantime, take a look at Eva’s new PSA against fur.

“I didn’t know how animals were killed for fur,” Eva says. “And I even wore fur once myself. But when I learned how cruel the fur industry is and that there were no laws protecting these animals, I swore that I’d never wear it again.”
