Skin and Bones: Nicole Richie and Ashley Olsen Top PETA's Annual 'Worst-Dressed' List for Their Fur-Wearing Ways

Nicole Richie and Ashley Olsen may not have much of an appetite when it comes to food, but their craving for animal skins has landed them on PETA's 2006 'Worst-Dressed' List:

Nicole Richie1. Nicole Richie: This pelt-wearing party girl is all animal skin and bones. She's an incredible shrinking woman with the heart to match.

Ashley Olsen2. Ashley Olsen: Wearing fur does add 20 pounds, but if Ashley wants to fill out her frame, we suggest using a fork instead.

Eva Longoria4. Eva Longoria: You'd think she'd be more sympathetic to the plight of rabbits considering the way she screws around like one on Wisteria Lane.

Christina Ricci3. Christina Ricci: Disregarding the holiday season's "Peace on Earth" message, Ricci recently posed for a magazine cover wearing fur from slaughtered reindeer. At least she's not into fur hats: Imagine how many more pelts it would take to cover that forehead.

*UPDATE: Christina Ricci has had a change of heart about fur after receiving an email from PETA asking her to watch a fur expose by Martha Stewart. In an email to PETA Vice President Dan Mathews, Ricci says "I never meant to hurt nor anger anyone with my insensitivity. For what it is worth I have received the message loud and clear and will not be wearing fur in the future. I apologize for my offensive actions." Because of this PETA has removed Ricci from the 2006 worst dressed list.

Notably absent from the list this year is Paris Hilton, whose fur-wearing ways landed her on top of PETA's "Worst-Dressed" list last year. Paris now tells reporters that she's had enough and is ditching her mink coats, fox collars, and chinchilla trim. The tipping point came when she watched a gruesome exposé of the Chinese fur trade and learned that animals are skinned alive in China for their fur. PETA is hopeful that Paris really has been enlightened but is taking a wait-and-see approach before asking her to be the next "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" model.
