Pink Thinks Fur Makes People Look Fat

If you didn’t know this already Pink has always been a very outspoken animal rights activist. Trying to get people to stop wearing it by making them feel bad does little in this materialistic world, so the pop singer diva thought she would use a different approach.

What’s her best weapon? Making every woman’s insecurities alive! She believes the only way to stop celebs from animal skins is to tease them about their weight. "The whole animal welfare and
cruelty side of wearing fur is clearly not working because some people still insist on wearing it.
So I think we should have a new campaign with the message - fur makes you look fat. That is probably the only thing these people care about so let's go for that. You look terrible in that. It makes you gain 15 or 20 lbs. That will do the trick."

Have You Seen Whale Wars?

Have you seen the new reality documentary series Whale Wars on Animal Planet? Captain Paul Watson founded his Sea Shepherd Conservation Society in 1977 because he believed his new organization had to go even further to eradicate whaling, poaching, shark finning and habitat destruction — and to uphold international conservation laws on the high seas — than the Greenpeace group he had co-founded.

Watson's group of staff and volunteers have engaged in a campaign almost every winter to find and stop Japanese ships that hunt whales in the name of research, attempting to stop them by any non-violent means necessary. The eclectic group — labeled activists, heroes and/or eco-pirates — leave port in Melbourne, Australia for a two-month campaign that is dangerous, controversial and has garnered international media attention.

During the 2007-2008 campaign, Animal Planet captured the intensity of Sea Shepherd's mission and the trials and tribulations of the crew in a new seven-part, hour-long weekly series Whale Wars.
