Her role in Iron Man may have earned her some points with film critics, but Gwyneth Paltrow is getting nothing but rotten tomatoes from just about everyone else this week. The actress decided to throw her credibility to the dogs when she picked up a few dead animal skins to model for the Tods fall collection, including a fox fur shawl.
PETA US has written to Ms. Paltrow numerous times about the hideous cruelty on fur farms, including the fact that animals are often skinned alive and kept in tiny cages for so long that they exhibit stereotypical behaviours.
Here’s what our Ingrid Newkirk had to say about Paltrow’s latest hobby:
Gwyneth Paltrow won’t be the apple of her daughter’s eye if she flaunts the skins of once-beautiful animals. Promoting an industry that electrocutes animals, snaps their necks, and skins them alive is a shocking example to set for a young child. Apparently, Paltrow’s beauty really is only skin deep.
Paltrow may like to live the glamorous life, but there is nothing glam about paying others to slaughter animals for your clothes.

Hmmm very bad example to her children but nothing compared to what I just read about Suri Cruise who has her own fur coat. Bluuurrggghhburry have caught that one young.
