Kate Moss has angered her boyfriend Jamie Hince, by buying a blanket made of rabbit fur.

Hince is reportedly a staunch vegan, and a source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: “Huge conflict has flared up between the pair over what Jamie claims is Kate’s disregard for animal welfare.”

“He is a strict vegan who won’t even touch cow’s milk and is horrified by Kate’s insistence on wearing fur and having it round the home,” the source said of the guitarist in the British rock band The Kills.

This wouldn’t be the first time Kate has disgusted a veggie pal with her choice of furnishings.

Stella McCartney wasn’t too pleased to attend the supermodel’s 35th birthday bash at her home, where Moss has fur rugs and dead animals hanging on the wall.

Polish born supermodel Joanna Krupa doesn’t think too highly of stars that wear fur.

Krupa, who has worked with animal rights organizations in the past, vows she will never date a man who doesn’t wear his own skin and had some pretty nasty things to say about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in Maxim magazine.

“I think it’s the cheesiest s**t on the planet for a man to wear fur,” Krupa said. “Look at Diddy – he looks like a ‘tard. If you think you look hot in a fur jacket, you have issues.”

You can check out photos of Joanna wearing her true skin at Maxim.com.

Lindsay Lohan is so well known for the forest of critters that lie on her back, she’s even been nominated for the Worst Dressed Celebrity, based on the amount of cruel clothing she wears.

Now, she’s been chastised by vegetarian fashion designer Stella McCartney for her wardrobe choice.

Apparently, Stella thinks Lindsay’s been photographed in one animal coat too many.

A source says, “Lindsay wears a lot of Stella’s designs and she doesn’t want to be associated with a high-profile star who insists on wearing animal products.”

A spokeswoman for McCartney says, “She never uses fur and encourages everyone to opt for a vegetarian lifestyle.”

If you like the fur look, but not the killing involved, slip into something made by Donna Salyers’ Fabulous Furs, where every coat is made to look real, but is faker than the bosoms in Hollywood.

Model Suzanne McCabe Will Pose In PETA’s First Irish Anti-Fur Ad

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, July 10th, 2009 in Fur, Models.

PETA is definitely the type of organization that looks for world domination.

They’ve recruited dozens of US and European celebrities to front anti-fur, vegetarian, and other animal rights campaigns and are inching in on South America with Lydia Guerra.  Now, Irish animal lovers will be proud to call Suzanne McCabe their own as she’ll be starring in PETA’s first “I’d Rather Go Naked than Wear Fur” campaign in the country.

McCabe recently turned vegetarian as well, so it couldn’t get any better!

“It’s not tacky at all; it’s very tastefully done,” McCabe said. “You can’t really see anything, but it still gets the message across, which is the most important thing.”

“My parents weren’t overly delighted when they heard about the nudity, but they know how important the cause is to me and I know once they see the pictures they will be happy.”

“It’s incredibly exciting because this is the first time this PETA campaign has ever been done here.”

McCabe’s ad is expected to go public by the end of the summer.

Holly Madison No Model PETA Citizen

Holly Madison may be the The Girl Next Door, but she’s no model PETA spokesperson.

And PETA’s okay with that.

When the animal rights group approached her to do an anti-fur ad, she told them she wasn’t even thinking of giving up eating meat.

“I’m not a hardcore PETA person,” she said. “When they approached me to do the ad, I made it clear to them that I’m not a vegetarian, and I’ve got leather seats in my car. I said I would support that ad campaign, but I wasn’t their model citizen, and they were fine with that.”

Hey, at least she didn’t turn around and do a burger ad afterwards.

One could stir a nice little debate up on whether we should praise celebrities who take seemingly opposite stances on animal issues. What do you think? Is it okay for celebrities to partake in certain animal rights campaigns and not others. If steak eating Ted Nugent decided he wanted to go naked, would you want it (for the animals, not for pleasure, that is)?

Parsons Honors Calvin Klein, Inc.s Tom Murry And Francisco Costa

Great minds must think alike!

We recently gave props to Tila Tequila and First Ladies Michelle Obama and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy for speaking out against the fur industry and proclaiming their fur-free status!

Now, Russell Simmons has blogged at the Huffington Post, giving praises to the above individuals for the actions.

“Our blogger, Tila Tequilla, trumped all of our other celebrity bloggers by handing in the most viewed and commented blog in the history of Global Grind on the subject of animal abuse.”

“…Michelle Obama and France’s first lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy have declared themselves FUR FREE!!! Last week marks a shift in human consciousness.”

“We are finally, after years of going head to head with the fur industry, changing the way the world views fur. It is no longer being viewed as a way to floss and show off your status or bank account – it is now a billboard of cruelty on people’s back.”

Is Tila Tequila a bit narcissistic? She openly called herself “hot” on globalgrind.com.

Well, if you know you got it, admit it! Not only is she hot, she’s got a warm heart for animals, and has taken the opportunity to discourage people from wearing fur.

“I don’t know who those people are that have it in their hearts to skin an animal while it is still alive but I hope that by promoting fur alternatives I’m doing my part to stop that needless suffering. You will never see me wearing a fur and if you do, rest assured its FAKE. If you love animals you cannot justify wearing them. Its that simple. Remember, hot girls fake it…for the animals. I should know, cause I’m hot. Lol.”

Tila posted a video about what goes on in fur factories that has generated TONS of comments.

This gal who has appeared in Stuff, Maxim, Time, and Penthouse definitely knows how to light up the room. And not just because she looks good.

Read what else Tequila has to say and view a pic of her cuddling up with a cute four legged friend at globalgrind.com.

Will T.I. Go Naked For PETA’s Anti-Fur Campaign?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, June 9th, 2009 in Fur, Male Singers.

2007 MTV Video Music Awards - Arrivals

Prison can do a lot for a man. He can get religious, get in shape, even get a college degree while spending time in the Big House.

PETA is hoping rapper and producer T.I. will want to take off his clothes after wearing that gaudy looking jumpsuit for so long as he serves his prison sentence for federal weapons charges.

The animal rights group has written to T.I. asking him to partake in their “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign.

The group heard T.I. asked former inmate Martha Stewart for some advice on how to spend the time behind bars. Since T.I.’s not the crocheting type (or is he?….), PETA suggested another way he could follow in the domestic diva’s footsteps. Martha chose to narrate an anti-fur public service announcement for the group.

“We read you looked to Martha Stewart for advice on how to pass your prison term and come out on top. Did you know that she agreed to narrate an anti-fur public service announcement (PSA) for PETA because she experienced firsthand what it is like for the millions of minks, rabbits, and other animals who are confined to filthy sheds on fur farms? But unlike inmates who are freed when they finish their sentences, these animals are beaten, have their necks broken, are electrocuted, and are often skinned alive for their fur. We hope you follow Martha’s compassionate example and become involved with our anti-fur efforts.”

Will T.I. bare all for the animals? It’s such a generous act, it’s deserving of some time off for good behavior.
