Star P!nk Pens Protest to Vogue
PETA member P!nk has sent a handwritten letter to Anna Wintour, the
editor of Vogue, urging her to drop fur promotions from the
magazine. P!nk’s plea comes just as Vogue’s September
issue—traditionally the “furriest” of the year—hits
newsstands.
“Fashion is about changing with the times,” the singer
writes. “With that in mind, I urge you to modernize your magazine
and stop promoting fur!”
“If your readers knew the horrors that these animals go through
to supply a hairy swath of skin, coated with chemicals to stop it
from decomposing, they would gag,” continues P!nk to Wintour,
who once had a dead raccoon dropped on her lunch plate as an anti-fur
protest. “Won’t you use your unique position to help fashion
evolve rather than rot?”
To voice your own complaint to the Vogue editor about the
magazine’s shameless pelt-pushing, please contact:
