Editor's note: PETA attacks actresses choice of clothing...with their usual good taste and tactfulness. Their comments are done in the breathless style of ET Tonight's Billy Bush gossping with "ladies who lunch." Here's what Playfuls wrote:
Nicole Richie is clearly not PETA’s favorite star – if only she showed more sympathy to things that once breathed… The animal rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has announced its worst-dressed list of 2006, aimed at celebrities wearing fur in public.
This year’s poll singled out socialite Nicole Richie, actress Ashley Olsen, “Desperate Housewives” Eva Longoria and actress Christina Ricci. Their inclusion in the top four positions was accompanied by comments from a PETA spokesperson.
Of Lionel Richie’s daughter, the representative ruthlessly said, “This pelt-wearing party girl is all animal skin and bones. She's an incredible shrinking woman with the heart to match.” Ashley Olsen wasn’t spared either, as her frail figure was sarcastically commented on, “Wearing fur does add 20 pounds. But if Ashley wants to fill out her frame, we suggest using a fork instead,” said PETA.
Eva Longoria was also on the list and the animal activists remarked, “And you’d think Eva Longoria would be more sympathetic to the plight of rabbits considering the way her character screws around like one on Wisteria Lane.”
Merciless observations indeed. PETA has no patience and no sympathy for those who commit, encourage, condone or otherwise approve of cruelty towards animals. PETA, active since 1980, has long supported campaigns against wearing fur, and has collaborated with models in an attempt to bring awareness to a larger audience.
However, it has severed its relationship with some of the models when they continued to wear fur, such as Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and Cindy Crawford. Last year's most vilified fur-wearer, Paris Hilton, was absent from the new list after reportedly ditching her mink coats, fox collars and chinchilla trim. PETA might even ask her to be its next “Rather Go Naked than Wear Fur” model.
The organization says the heiress ditched her mink coats and fox collars after watching a video exposé of the Chinese fur trade. On its website, the organization says it is hopeful Paris will continue not to wear fur, adding PETA will take “a wait-and-see approach before asking her to be the next 'I'd Rather Go Naked than Wear Fur' model.”
Other stars that have made PETA's Worst Dressed list in recent years include Liza Minnelli, Sharon Stone, Macy Gray, Lara Flynn Boyle, Diana Ross and Celine Dion, as well as rockers Lenny Kravitz and Axl Rose and basketball star Kobe Bryant. PETA activists really sound angry and bitter – and perhaps it’s no wonder, considering that strive as they might, animals are still getting wronged (to use a euphemism).
Editor's Note: PETA is not worrying about any HUMANS they may have wronged. And they're not talking about the thousands of animals they've killed or the subsequent legal actions against them for animal cruelty. Liza can walk around the Washington, DC area in a mink coat but pity the poor stray cat slinking around Reston, VA. It could fall into PETA's hands.
Of course, if any of this year's worst dressed would consent to drop trou and pose naked for the latest PETA porn photo, all would be forgiven in a prurient heartbeat.
