Eva Mendes has some advice for holiday shoppers this season: Leave fur on the racks. To drive the point home, the screen siren hosts PETA’s new fur industry exposé, which includes the latest investigation of fur farms and markets in China, the world’s largest fur exporter.
Mendes debuted her new PETA video today, in Hollywood. Says Mendes,
“Millions of animals are killed for their pelts each year. … The thing is, I didn’t always know how animals were killed for their fur, and I even wore fur once myself. But when I learned how cruel the fur industry is-and that there are no laws protecting these animals-I swore that I’d never wear it again. Please join me today as we go behind the scenes of the international fur trade, and find out how you can look glamorous without supporting animal suffering.”
Mendes is among dozens of celebrities-including Charlize Theron, Christina Applegate, Roselyn Sanchez, Pamela Anderson, Nia Long, and Christy Turlington-who have joined with PETA to speak out against fur.
Thank you for posting this. Utilize your right to make informed choices. If you are a compassionate human being – don’t wear fur! Or leather!
PETA can kiss my ass.
PETA can kiss your ass, I don’t like them either. However, I have seen the videos, and pictures, not even taken by PETA, but a Swiss organization, and these animals have paws cut off, and are skinned alive. Its disgusting, and I cringe even looking at furs, with those vivid and terrible images come streaming back. Hate PETA, but before you buy fur, find out where it comes from, and how they are killed.
I forced myself to watch for a min or two but I couldn’t stomach it…. How cruel can we be? It makes me sick!!!!
i love her,PETA and animals.
Too bad PETA doesn’t love animals. Do your homework.
My comment was not directed at animals at all and I’m very familiar with certain practices as well as vivisection. My comment was directed at PETA and only at PETA.
eva looks nice. good for her.
aw go eva
I can’t stand fur myself, but don’t these supporters wear leather? I find it hard to see the difference. Do they eat meat?
