2701. I think that the PETA should've been more professional, and let things be. If you were there for a purpose of winning a dinner date with Beyonce, then that is what you should have indulged in. Anything else was uncivilized. Everyone has a time, and a place to voice their opinions, but this event was not the time nor the place. Have more discretion next time, and be more diplomatic, and get your point across another way instead of ruining an unsuspecting person's good time. The problem seems more personal to me than just Beyonce wearing furs, and being partly responsible for the slaughtering of animals to me. If PETA's problem with Beyonce is about her wearing furs, and they thought this was the best time to confront her about it, then they might as well get prepared for a journey because they have a lot more dinners to ruin.

2702. The people representing PETA were rude, out of line, and stupid. There are millions of children in this world dying from hungar and war, and these idiots are only concerned about animals. Beyonce is a talented artist and I applaud her success and accomplishments. As for Pamela Anderson, she has a lot of nerve, did she care about animals when they are used for lab test for the different botox, breast enhancements, and everything else she had done to herself for public appearance. Double standards. BEYONCE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GIRL, WE ARE IN YOUR CORNER.

2703. I would like to applaud Ms. Knowles for being the classy person she is. Though she could have given her guests a few chosen words, she chose to let them make a fool of themselves and be escorted out of the room. I have four daughters my self that range in age from 19 down to 12 and I know one of my girls would have sucker punched one of them. I do not condone violence in any way, shape or form that is the reason I am so glad Ms. Kowles was a complete lady during this fiasco. Your parents raised you right.

2704. It seems as though the people who go around harassing people want some type of "crazy" reaction. I have a great idea! I am extendind an invitation to the people from PETA to confront a few rappers or maybe they should visit any club on any given winter weekend in the city of Detroit and confront a few people there. I can guarantee two things , first you will have dozens of people to confront with their furs on, the second thing is they(the peta peole) will get a lot of attention. maybe even news coverage. However I cant gurantee no one will get hurt. If a person truly believes in a cause no mountain is too high to climb for that cause. And if they did do one of those two things that I just mentioned ( even if they didnt walk away unharmed) I would then respect them. Until then I think that they are just attention seeking bullys!

2706. ok most of yall who commented needs a life!!! im not all in love with beyonce or anythin but i do believe she does deserve to sit down have a nice dinner with her family without A-holes comin up to her and questionin her. i understand that some may think wearin fur is wrong and the way they kill the animals is unkind but all in all its up to the person to decide if wether they wanna wear it or not. u can not decide for someone else. if u believe its wrong then dont do it, but dont think u have the right to judge someone else cause they do.

2707. Please do not let your green-eyed monster be the reason to hate. The young lady is very talented,and gracious. Your time and energy could best be servred by supporting efforts to such issues as;all the starving children around the world, all the old people who have to decide if they buy their medicines this month, or food, all of our young men and women dying so that everyone can have democracy(be it forced or not), and the homless. The list can go on and on. But if you don't want to buy her music, then don't buy it. I don't know about you, but I have more important issues to waste my time on! Do yourselves a favor, just admitt it, you are jealous!!!

2710. The PETA people are real sneaks! They could have written Beyonce a letter or an email. Why confront her at dinner? I feel there are a million other ways that the PETA people could have approached her with respect, and who knows, maybe Beyonce would have given the suggestion real thought. Remember, it's not what you do, it's how you do a thing that counts!

2711. This is absolutely rediculous. Has anyone ever wondered where those videos come from? Its not as if fur farms make them and then send them to PETA! Honestly, use some common sense, people! I doubt any of you that are here supporting PETA have any idea about them, like the fact that they fund convicted arsonists who have bombed testing facilities that could find cures for AIDS as well as many other terminal diseases and birth defects. Not to mention the fact that ANIMALS kill other animals and since that humans are as well ANIMALS (a small fact everyone seems to forget), it is completely natural for us to kill other animals. Cheers to everyone who thinks PETA is SICK and should be ABOLISHED!

2713. I feel that peta was out of line...don't get me wrong cruelty to animals is wrong but consider this...wearing a fur keeps the animals memory ALIVE..lol...bottom line is she is not the one going around torturing these animals...and I can guarantee the majority of the peta organization eats meat!!! Everyone's a hypocrite...I've read people bashing beyonce when the real reason you mad is because your not her...please stop acting like your sh*t don't stink...
