“Kanye can't help making himself look like an idiot…”

While Kanye West was busy vacationing during Paris' Men's Fashion Week accompanied by girlfriend Amber Rose he raised more than a few eyebrows, in particular because of his choice to dress almost head-to-toe in fur.

Most perturbed by Ye's choice of wardrobe is none other than People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals or PETA who's seeing red after pictures surfaced of the couple in their non-animal friendly wear.

As previously reported, the organization targeted Kelis for her recent choices to wear fur leading to a battle of words between the singer and the campaign.

Now their latest targets are Kanye and Amber who they describe as “painting the town blood red.”

Obviously annoyed by the couple's almost blatant disregard for PETA's anti-fur message a representative for the company released a statement on their website saying,

"The prettiest people do the ugliest things For the road to riches and diamond rings . . . We'll buy a lot of clothes but we don't really need ‘em Things we buy to cover up what's inside —Kanye West, “All Falls Down.”

West apparently lives by his lyrics. The ethical dropout—who horrified voters in PETA's Worst-Dressed Celebrity competition last year—and his sleazy sidekick, Amber Rose, were snapped by paparazzi strutting around Paris in “the ugliest things,” indeed. Both were wearing head-to-toe fur, and Amber refused to remove her full-length lynx coat during a show at Paris Men's Fashion Week.

Putting the final nail in the coffin, the rep quoted the Vice President of the organization denouncing Ye and his side piece as “pathetic creatures.”

As PETA V.P. Dan Mathews so eloquently put it, “Kanye can't help making himself look like an idiot, whether at an award's show or a fashion show. He and his girlfriend look like pathetic creatures from a shabby roadside zoo.”

Co-sign let them wear what they want

if he doesn't treat people ethically, why would animals be exempt?

Kanye "and his sleazy sidekick" Amber?


How professional to write something like that

NDRU said:

Like I said on the other thread, when you lower yourself to make personal attacks on people, you lose. Epic fail, PETA.

I would love for PETA to try to bumrush Kanye like they did Beyonce. That is one time I would love to hear what Kanye has to say.

Vendetta1 said:

yes, and the point is to educate people not to wear fur, which means acknowledging that decent people wear fur, they just don't understand.

When you insult them it will make them want to wear it just to spite you

NDRU said:

Yep. I'm against fur and leather, too but PETA's commando tactics make me want to go out and buy a coat.

BklynBabe said:

Love this! right on!

VenusBlingBling said:

I know right!

ABeautifulOne said:

i feel like stuffing my mother's full length mink coat in their mouths.

missfee said:

I WISH Peta would roll up on Amber cuz the Philly would come all the way out and they'd learn their lesson about bumrushing mofos.

well i'd like to slap kelis anyway. there was another thread last week
about a letter PETA wrote to her. her response was childish and stupid
and completely insensitive to animal suffering.

but, as always, if you say anything pro-animals or in any way condone
a certain percentage of PETA's actions, you're labeled 'activist' or
'extremist'.

SCNDLS said:

LOL I'm waiting for them to get Mary J. Blige as well because all hell would literally break loose.

ABeautifulOne said:

They may be crazy, but they ain't KRAYZAY!

IstenSzek said:

I do not believe that to be true and I do not have a problem with people who want to support the good that PETA does but they are extreme and go to extreme measures to prove a point. It's then that I am not interested in hearing what they have to say. Fortunately there are other organizations that are against animal cruelty that I can support.

I do not lump all animal rights activists together and I see nothing wrong with being an activist but if you are extreme you can go straight to hell.

It's not just that they wear fur that is disturbing.


Is that they spend so much money to look so cheap. UGH.

She said it beautifully, "Anbody throws paint at me, will need facial makeover"

They were in a rut when she & Patti LaBelle wore this..


But that rut quickly died down, like I said times time again, these mofos are selective when it comes to their targets. Like a classic bully, they NEVER cross anybody who'll fight back. And they don't go after regular people, ONLY celebs who are concerned with their image.

SCNDLS said:

Exactly the good Mary would leave the building for the K-ci/What's The 411 Mary so quick!!! lmfao

Harlepolis said:

Lawd, I would stalk Patti for a year and call Peta with an anonymous tip giving her location JUST so I could witness that confrontation with Ms. Patti.

SCNDLS said:

same here

Why don't their shits turn to bricks when they see celebrities dressed head to toe in leather? Why don't they get ass iritated when they see episodes of MTV Cribs and all those rockers and rappers have leather sofas and fur blankets??? I guess only furry little critters get all the love.

And lemme just say miss Pattie lookin' fierce in that black and white fur. Go on gurrl!!!

DesireeNevermind said:

I don't get that either because you can be damn sure cows are killed for their hides. As far as we know, some of them might be wearing leather their damn selves.
