Janet Jackson Named PETA’s ‘Grinch of the Year’
If PETA had its way Janet Jackson would be on the naughty list as the singer topped the animal rights’ group list of celebrity grinches this year.
And PETA had some pretty serious words for the Jackson sister.
“When Janet Jackson had her infamous “wardrobe malfunction” during the Super Bowl, at least the flesh that popped into view was her own—unlike the stolen animal skins that she drapes herself with, which are as dead as her taste in fashion (not to mention her career). Ms. Jackson, you’re just plain nasty.”
According to StarPulse, Jackson will be launching her own fur line in 2012. Jackson has teamed up with Blackglama to create a luxury mink collection, which will feature everything from coats to gloves.
Jackson said:
“The art of fashion is one of my great passions. I’ve worked for years to bring a collection into the world. Partnering with Blackglama is very exciting.”
Of course, Jackson isn’t the only celebrity to offend PETA this year. Cameron Crowe and Kim Kardashian were both high up on the list of celebrity grinches this year.
PETA took issue with Cameron Crowe’s latest movie, “We Bought a Zoo,” because the movie used real animals instead of state-of-the-art computer imaging, and Kim Kardashian because unlike her sister Khloe she hasn’t starred in her own PETA anti-fur ad.
PETA spokeswoman Wendy Wegner said:
“While the holidays may be known as the season of giving and peace on earth, that’s not always the case for our animal friends.”
Do you think Janet Jackson, Cameron Crowe, and Kim Kardashian deserve the honor of being PETA’s “Celebrity Grinches?”
