Paris Hilton is officially off fur, and Paul McCartney's soon-to-be ex is the reason.
We're told that Hilton -- who has been known to wear fur in the past -- became alarmed after watching a gruesome PETA video at Heather Mills' home, showing dogs being skinned alive for their fur. Mills told Hilton that going the "fake fur route wasn't foolproof, because some high-end department stores labeled certain garments "artificial fur" when in fact they were the real deal.
Apparently Hilton vowed on the spot never to wear fur again.
TMZ checked with Paris' rep, Elliot Mintz, who said, "Paris does not wear fur, nor will she wear fur described as artificial fur knowing it came off the backs of animals." Mintz say he and Hilton are "greatful to Heather for educating us on this terrible subject."

Next stop: leather! Last stop: veganism! Maybe Paris will be like Angelina in a few years, just full of worthy causes to take her mind off wear she left her panties last night.
I'm not a fan of Paris Hilton...However, she showed some (rare) intelligence. wheather anyone likes it or not...she's a role model. Good for her. Also, I can't imagine she could carry those dogs all over the place and NOT be affected by the crulty. Fur is out. You'd have to be ignorant to wear it.
I think Paris is making such a great statement especially since she is famouse and has millions of fans. Her fans will do as she does. She is so beautiful. I love you Paris!
Maybe Paris could defend the baby seals and have her head bashed in instead of theirs. It would be a plus for the animals and the humans. A win-win situation.
So easily convinced. I bet she swore to do this before, but forgot about it because she's so dumb.
NO matter what you all say, i think the world of paris for doing this
she is being very responsible as a high profile celebrity in taking a stand on
not wearing fur, she should be commended for this instead of all the
horrible things people are saying on this site
good for you paris for and i hope other people who wear fur will follow your lead (ex beyonce who has a dog of her own so why would she ever wear fur is beyond me. if only these people knew what these poor innocent animals go through i bet alot more of them would quit.
Paris has orange streeks, lol, and also is it me or is she just doing all this because of the hype with Beyonce'? Funny. Paris is nasty, her clothes look like they are straight up maternity. I wish that one of her animals would just bite her already and get it over with, put this biiiiatch outta her misery.
Great!!! Sadly enough, she's a role model for many young girls and if she makes a statement it will be heard. Maybe even understood. Let's hope it lasts longer than with Naomi Campbell & Co and that Beyoncé, J.Lo & Co will come to their senses one day.
Pari's life, this is a picture she not use this clothes, if she use , this is not my problem, hei people stop this, Paris ok, go keep your life, and don't forget "THE Man NOT TOUCH IN the MOON" IS A BIG LIE", hei peta go help poor peoples ok.
Wow, finally she gets the point! So in deed the stars are not blind. It gets to show you that at least the girl has some brain left or a good publicist. But any how, good for you Paris. Now, if we could also change Ms. Cruela DeVIl A.K.A. Beyonce's mind, that would be heaven!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is just a BS attempt to clear her name A LITTLE. . . sorry Paris, you keep doing stupid things to humiliate yourself, so this won't work for long.
PS knowing what an AIRHEAD she is, she'll probably wear those dumb boots with fur on them and be like "oh that doesn't count, it's not a coat."
