Nicole Bitch-Slapped by PETA

Nicole RichieIt seems Nicole Richie fired her stylist a little too late ... she just landed at the top of PETA's Annual Worst-Dressed List.

The animal rights group showed no mercy as they dug their their claws into fur-loving Richie by saying, "This pelt-wearing party girl is all animal skin and bones. She's an incredible shrinking woman with the heart to match." Meow!

PETA put Hollywood wonder twin Ashley Olsen in the #2 spot: "Wearing fur does add 20 pounds, but if Ashley wants to fill out her frame, we suggest using a fork instead." Ouch!

Christina Ricci landed at #3 for posing on a magazine cover wearing "fur from slaughtered reindeer." Fur-galicious Eva Longoria was named #4 because they wish "She'd be more sympathetic to the plight of rabbits, considering the way she screws around like one on Wisteria Lane." Well!

Notably absent from the list: Paris Hilton, who topped the list last year, and Beyoncé, who was ambushed by PETA at a restaurant last June for including fur in her fashion line.

Spare me the crap you wimp! If I have enough money I'll buy fur. It's funny how so many people have been mind-washed to believe crap about animals been skinned alive. Do you really believe it happens that way?

As you may not know, skinning an animal while it's alive invites a lot of trouble because the animal will attack you so typically the animal is killed before the fur is harvested. Or do you think that the animal is skinned alive and left bare? Please get your head out of your ass and don't spew propaganda.

34. It's appalling to see these "stars" still wearing fur, after they have repeatedly been made aware of the problems associated with the Chinese fur trade and the ethical problems with choosing fur.

According to the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), "Millions of dogs and cats [including pets] are slaughtered every year for the [Chinese] fur trade. Where their fur ends up may surprise you." China supplies more than half of the fur garments imported for sale into the United States. Dog and cat fur is deliberately mislabeled as fur from other species so that it can be sold to unsuspecting Americans.

Everyone from Martha Stewart to Paul McCartney has denounced this fur, including some of the largest clothing retailers. J. Crew, Ann Taylor (who has 740 stores in 45 states), Abercrombie and Fitch, Olan Mills, and U.K.'s most highly respected fashion chain Topshop, have all stopped selling fur after seeing the Chinese Fur Trade videos.

This is not an issue that concerns only animal rights advocates. The cruelty is so horrendous that mainstream citizens are climbing onboard this boycott.

Anyone even thinking about wearing fur has an obligation to seek out information about where the fur comes from. They should go to the Humane Society web site or the Fur Is Dead website and view the short videos before they fall for the media advertising urging them to buy fur.

35. Thank you for your post Gayle. Hopefully those in the dark on this issue can learn something from it. You are absolutely right about the Chinese fur trade. I actually saw a video on Dateline, back in 2004. It is something I wish I could erase from my memory but unfortunately I can't. It was in China and they were taking out dogs that were crammed into cages one on top of another. A beagle was dragged out and went towards its killer with it's tail wagging. It kept wagging until after the 2nd or 3rd blow from his club. It was all captured on undercover video as the dog was hit over and over until it was nothing more than a bloody pulp. I couldn't watch anymore, but from that day forward I have tried to get the word out to people who think if you can afford it, its O.K. to buy fur. Fur from China is typically made from dogs or cats. As for fur from different regions, who knows what it is. Anyone who doubts this needs to go to the link you provided and watch what really happens to these animals. Every day more and more people are saying no to fur. I believe eventually there will be no market for it at all. Watch the video people.

36. I think those ladies look terrific in fur. Peta's opinion of whether they are well dressed or not is pretty irrelevant.

37. It's amazing to see all these gullible peta supporters that help line the pockets of
the bigwigs. Do you really think your donated money goes to help animals?
Fools. They kill more than they help. but climb back on your high horses and
condemn those that do things you don't approve of. Meanwhile, I'll enjoy a
tender, juicy steak hot off the grill. I might even put on my fur jacket and go
dine in the backyard.

38. PETA CAN GO TO HELL, THEY THINK EVERYONE SHOULD BE VEGITARITANS. WELL, I'M CERTAINLY NOT GIVING UP MEAT

39. I don't support PETA one bit. I also do not condone the killing of animals for their fur. It's not about the inability to pay for it. Even if I could I wouldn't because it is extremely disgusting and inhumane. The fact that people are being duped into buying furs that are supposed to be exotic and aren't is extremely funny. If you're that stupid to go out and buy an animal pelt then you deserved to get it up with ass when paying for it.

40. You think PETA's opinion is irrelevant? Funny, several people that were once on their list now swear off fur. Let me guess, you're one of those men with a tiny di$k who needs to feel like a man by killing animals?? Couldn't you think of anything more constructive to do with your life besides being a senior editor of eatanimals? Wow, that's some public service. If I recall correctly your organization fought a long battle with peta for the peta.com domain name. Guess ya lost, huh?? ha ha

42. Let's all remember that PeTA killed several kittens & puppies & then condems those that eats meat & wears furs! PeTA is nothing more than a scam they care nothing about animals! I eat meat I also love animals & do not put them above the life of a baby or human being. Ladies wear your furs proudly with pride & tell PeTA to stuff it & remind them that they kill kittens & puppies!

43. OH J. H. C. PETA= People Eating Tasty Animals..
I LOVE animals, bar-B q'd, Fried, roasted, baked.... I say wear fur.... Screw the idiots.. HSUS freaking terrorists..... Law-breakers... Fur is still LEGAL, so Fucgoff....
Touchy-feely, tree hugging, whale-humpin, bunny-lovin Neo fascists. need to go to some country that has the same ideology as their warped little minds have. Otherwise, realize that we have rights in this country. I think most Hollywood types are shallow, but from now on anyone that is wearing real fur ( or fake fur- if it pisses off PETA) will be one step higher on my respect ladder.
Come on America.... Learn how to drive, not just steer a car.
If you dont want me to join your cellphone conversation, dont share it with me!
Mommys., TimeOuts dont work if you kid has more electronics in his room then NORAD.
Some people win, that means some lose. Accept it.
Guns dont commit crimes, bullets dont either, Criminals do...Face it.
Profiling used to be called good police work, I dont care if you stop me, Im not guilty and I encourage the extra security.
Air travelers...the airports have metal detectors now. DONT wear all your jewelry to the airport and hold up the lines at the security checkpoint.

44. Im sorry, but animal activist annoy the crap out of me. If Nicole wants to wear fur, get the hell over it. PETA is just a group of people who have nothing better to do then to worship animals and annoy us. If people start to think that animals are more important then us, they seriously need professional help. Not that they don't already need it in the first place...
