PETA doesn't play when they are upset with celebrities over the fur wearing issue.

An anti-fur campaigner representing the animal-rights group dumped flour over actress Lindsay Lohan Friday evening in Paris.

The group PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) took claim for the action in a statement to Access Hollywood.

“The actor, who was on her way into the VIP room on the Champs-Elysées just after 1 AM early Saturday, had an entire bag of flour dumped over her head by a French fur foe who shouted, ‘Lindsay Lohan—fur hag!’” .

Lohan apparently wore fur coats while in London earlier this week with girlfriend Samantha Ronson, and continued to do so as she went south to France.

“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.” according to PETA Europe’s Robbie LeBlanc said in the statement.

Samantha Ronson quickly fired back at the activists in her MySpace blog.

“Today I’m pissed at the bag of flour thrown on Lindsay last night. Not because I got powdered down, but because the girl who threw it acted like an animal herself,” she wrote. “It’s a pity that some groups feel the need to assault people as opposed to fighting with words. I don’t wear fur, but I don’t think I have the right to ATTACK those who do. No one has that right.”

“PETA should focus their efforts on educating people on what they believe are injustices instead of seeking press via harassing those in the limelight,” she concluded.
