Pop 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:
