Khloe Kardashian is the latest celebrity to join forces with PETA in a new ad campaign against wearing fur.

See the behind the scenes footage over at FurisDead.com.

Lindsay Lohan was attacked by an anti-fur activist this weekend while in Paris.

Lohan, who has been photographed recently wearing fur coats, had an entire bag of flour dumped over her head while heading to a VIP room at a nightclub.

The French woman screamed, “Lindsay Lohan, fur hag!”

Lindsay was crowned PETA’s Worst-Dressed List earlier this year, the group wrote, “I Know Who Killed Me isn’t just the title of Lindsay Lohan’s latest bomb, it’s the cry of the animals snuffed out so that this ‘mean girl’ can pose in their pelts. Lindsay, there’s no road to recovery for the foxes who are anally electrocuted so that you can look skanky.”

Robbie LeBlanc of PETA Europe released the following statement,

“There is nothing remotely ‘fashionable’ about the torture and death of animals killed for fur. Lindsay Lohan might be able to ignore images of bloody animals skinned alive for their pelts, but we hope a dash of flour will help her rise to the occasion and forsake fur once and for all.”

After PETA showed Giorgio Armani a video of rabbits being slaughtered for their fur he went public saying he would not use fur in his collections anymore.

He told Time magazine,

“I spoke with the people from PETA and they showed me some materials that convinced me not to use fur.”

However, one short year later Armani’s fall collection is full of rabbit fur.  Rabbit fur coats for babies, floral-printed fur coats, fur-trimmed jackets and fur-hemmed skirts. Obviously PETA was disappointed and wanted to call him on it.

European PETA created this altered photo of the designer, making him appear like Pinocchio, the Disney character whose nose grew every time he fibbed.

Well, I say good for PETA.  He went back on his word after proudly boasting that he wouldn’t do it. So of course there is going to be backlash.

Whether you love or hate PETA, I think it is great to have people who, although might be a bit radical, have good intentions and DO make a difference.

I’m not a member of PETA, nor am I vegetarian, but I am a huge animal lover and hate the process that animals have to go through in order for us to wear or consume them.

Ok, so everyone knows the recent story about Jessica Simpson and her “Real Girls Eat Meat” t-shirt and how afterward Pamela Anderson, spokesperson for PETA, called her a bitch and a whore for wearing it.

I’m not sure if this is a real “Hollywood Feud” as certain media is branding it, but according to some rumors Jessica was pretty pissed after hearing Pammy attacked her during a radio interview.  So much so, that she was ready to launch a full fledged catfight with the aging 41-year-old sex symbol.

A source said, “She was deeply hurt and upset at the comments.  To say Jessica is mad about it is an understatement.  She is disgusted at Pamela’s remarks and fully intended to go after her, until her family made her see sense.  Her folks told her not to make a big deal of it — as that would only get Pamela the press she’s so desperate for.”

I would love to see those two bimbos go at it!  Nothing like a couple of slutty bar bitches in a hair extension-pulling fight!  Woohoo – make mine a double!

She wishes!!

PETA Stages a Mothers Day Demonstration at Covent Garden in London 2/28/08/ GETTY IMAGES

Ok, first of all, to clarify the Mother’s Day thing, it’s actually, ‘Mothering Sunday‘ this upcoming Sunday in the UK. So don’t start bombarding me with emails about how Mother’s Day is a couple months away.

I had to post this picture, because I have mixed feelings on PETA. I know a lot of you hate the organization because almost every time they are in the media and are mentioned on Celebrity Smack – I get emails. They are radical, and I think it is their downfall.

Most of you know I am, like, the hugest animal lover ever. I mean, I have to turn the channel every time that commercial with Sarah McLaughlin comes on..heh. It’s that bad. But I have a hard time supporting PETA because they always embarrass themselves with their extreme publicity stunts. On the flip side, if an animal benefits from it, then who cares if you embarrassed yourself, right?

Sometimes in this world you have to do something crazy to get noticed. But is their point getting across to anyone? You have to wonder.

For example, this photo. Are people going to walk away from this display remembering that pigs are being crammed into extraordinarily cramped spaces – or that they saw a chubby naked chick on all fours in public today? I’m going with the latter. This is why I tend to support local shelters/rescues instead of PETA.

I think that if they were less fanatical they would have a warmer reception from the public. It’s too bad really, because I think they could have a lot more support if they were a kinder, gentler organization.

Let me know your thoughts.

Just a week after Aretha Franklin ripped on Beyonce for introducing Tina Turner as ‘The Queen’, PETA is coming forward to try and get Aretha to stop wearing real furs.

PETA is using the recent controversy to try and convince the very plus-sized soul singer to retire her fur coats and go faux.

In a letter to Franklin, PETA spokesperson Dan Matthews writes, “Music lovers may think of you as a ‘queen,’ but to animal lovers, you are a court jester. Why not shed the old-fashioned look that adds pounds to your frame and detracts from your beautiful voice? Please consider donating your furs to the homeless as ‘queen of compassion,’ Mariah Carey, did. You’ll get a tax credit for the donation, and we at PETA will all sing your praises.”
