Pink slams Lopez and Beyoncé for wearing fur
Sep 13, 2005, 12:59 GMT
Pink has slammed Jennifer Lopez and Beyoncé Knowles for wearing fur.
Speaking at the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals 25th anniversary gala in Los Angeles, the feisty singer branded Lopez "J.Bitch" and urged the audience to boycott anything to do with the Latin diva.
She then took a thinly-veiled swipe at Beyoncé's curvy behind, saying: "She's got a big button - let's push hers!"
Last year, Pink snubbed Beyoncé for wearing fur when the two came together for the UK launch of their new Pepsi advert.
The animal rights campaigner, who is a dedicated member of PETA, was furious when she arrived at London's National Gallery to find Beyoncé wearing a mink fur jacket over her pale blue dress.
Pink fumed at the time: "It's up to Beyoncé what she wears but I'm not speaking to her. I've not said anything but I think everyone knows my views - I won't ever touch fur. It's wrong."
The 'Trouble' singer has been outspoken about her animal rights views in the past.
She once wrote an angry letter to Prince William after discovering he liked to hunt and refused to perform at his 21st birthday party because of his love of blood sports.

I thought that as well until I saw a video called fur med farm, which completely flipped me out.
THANK GOD PINK IS IN THE WORLD BECAUSE SHE'S 100 PERCENT RIGHT ABOUT THE FUR ISSUE. WHY CANT BEYONCE AND J LO WEAR FAKE FUR DOES IT REALLY HAVE TO BE MINK AND CHINCHILLA COME ON!
I´m sorry CHRIS,,,, but you are so ignorant that is just stupid what you said, yeah you´re right, if beyonce or J.lo want to do anything they want to do that´s not anyone´s bussines... but if they´re donig something wrong, they´re are killing animals just for looking good, WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT..... and the cruelty animal is my bussines..... BY the WAY... I DON´T SPEAK ENGLISH
I think wearing fur is so wrong... I love beyonce and all but she needs to stop wearing fur.. is nasty..and same for j.lo is just wrong.
Pink is right... People who think fur is okay to wear should be the ones that are getting skinned.. i love animals.. beyonce and jHO probably think the animals deserve to die for them when really both of them should be punched in there ugly and fake faces.. I really hope they relize the pain the animals go through.. and beyonce says she believes in god and stuff.. well that is hyprocite because god would never do the things being done to animals just for fur.. GO TO HELL PEOPLE WHO WEAR FUR!!! I LOVE PINK!
Well...I love Beyoncé, she´s totally gorgeous and I love her music, but it´s hard to see how she get speechless in the video and somebody have to confront the problem. Maybe this aspect can give you a different opinion of her position, because that could mean something else: she´s not the Dereon´s designer, she only give the money and her beautiful face for the brand and, yes! she probably know all the process this animals have to been throught fot make some coats, and it´s horrible...but she´s a business woman and she know what the people wants, what her target wants (obviously no PETA), so I think its a little bit rough say: 'She´s a bitch'. And...I´m sorry for this, but if someone comes to dinner with me and make my food a cub of shit, I won´t feel guilty to stand up and fart in their fucking faces.
wearing fur is disgusting, how would you like to be skined alive
and somebody to wear you to collect an award, these bitches need to be
shot!
I would never wear fur!
Because, if you have ever bothered to see exactly how fur is obtained, you would never wear fur in a million years. Please keep in mind that most of the fur in the West comes from China where there are no animal welfare laws. The fur trade in China is gaining ground and there is no way it will stop if we continue to wear/buy fur.
See for yourself how dogs/cats/raccoons/foxes etc. get skinned alive for the fur trade but beware, it is very upsetting - and this is just one example of the barbarism of the fur trade.

On top of this the Chinese market the fur of dogs and cats as 'faux fur/rabbit/ other fur' or other made-up names. They know that Westerners will never buy dog fur! Dog and cat fur is easy to dye in different colours, so many people don't even realise that the coat they're wearing is actually dog fur.

'Pink' just needs to keep her homely nose in her own business. If Beyonce and J.Lo want to wear furs, it's their right to do so. I'm not saying I'm condoning unethical treatment of animals, but what they wear is none of my business.
