Lucy Davis bears all for PETA ad


Here we go again, this time with British-based PETA porn of the soft core variety. Actress Lucy Davis, best known for her role in BBC comedy The Office, is the new PETA bimbo for a new campaign from animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

The shows a nude Davis cuddling a strategically placed toy bear.

Using the 'pun'gent phrase ‘Bare skin, not bear skin’, the campaign aims to pressure the Ministry of Defence to ditch real bearskin in favour of artificial fur for the famous Queen’s Guards’ hats.

PETA said that the campaign will last until the end of the year, with the group currently considering which medium to utilise. Previously, PETA has used print, outdoor and ambient advertising to highlight its campaigns.

A source at PETA said that the organisation is lining up further, as yet unnamed, celebrities for ads. The organisation has previously used model Naomi Campbell and actress Pamela Anderson in its campaigning.

Earlier this year, PETA escaped censure from the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) over complaints about an ad with the strapline ‘Feedings kids meat is child abuse.’

Jenna Jameson "hooks up" with PETA

From Wikipedia:
Jenna Jameson (born Jenna Marie Massoli on April 9, 1974)[4] is an American pornographic actress and entrepreneur who has been called the world's most famous porn star and "The Queen of Porn". She started acting in erotic films in 1993 after having worked as a stripper and glamour model. By 1996, she had won the three top newcomer awards from pornographic film industry organizations. She has since won more than 20 adult film awards, and has been inducted into both the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO) and Adult Video News (AVN) Halls of Fame.

From PETA's web site home page:
The other day, my pal Michael had a work assignment I’d have killed for. He went to a photo shoot with the one and only
Jenna Jameson. Um, wow . . . Apparently, Jenna saw Earthlings a year or so ago and it changed her life, and we’re certainly glad to have her on board.
Unfortunately, the shots that are going to be in upcoming ads are being kept on the super down low for now, but check out this sneak peek of Jenna looking super hot in our Kentucky Fried Cruelty T-shirt that I was able to get my hands on.

From my keyboard:
I'm stunned. PETA has always been a fan of soft core advertising, getting hot for such major talents as Pamela Anderson and the ever popular Elvira to pose for their double entendre ads. Now they've gone hard core, getting Jenna Jameson, one of the biggest names in triple X movies, to pose for them --- thankfully fully clothed for one of the few times in her public life.

Just the kind of kid-friendly atmosphere you want your kids exposed to. . .

Makes you wonder how low the frat boys at PETA's HQ will go to get their point across to a public they evidently think loves a little skin with their public service announcements.
