Kate Winslet Confirms She Doesn’t Wear Fur

Avid Fish & Chimps fans were probably wondering why PETA didn’t jump in with teeth bared after Kate Winslet posed naked on what looks like a real fur throw in the latest issue of Vanity Fair. But behind the scenes we were busy at work contacting Kate - the beauty we’ve never, ever seen wearing animal fur.

So we sent a note to Kate pointing out how shocked we were to see photos of her posing with fur. And we were right to be shocked! We had a very prompt response from Kate’s rep and we have been assured that Kate never wears fur (as we suspected!) and she was actually told at the photoshoot that the very real fur was fake. And that’s not the first time that’s happened! PETA US has heard from countless celebs that sneaky stylists at photo shoots can be rather coy when it comes to fur and whether it’s real or not. So it seems Kate was duped, and with so many convincing fakes out there nowadays, it is easy to mistake the dead animals for the fake ones.

So, who thinks Kate should get naked with a faux-fur throw for PETA?

Phew… I was really surprised to see her posing with fur, so I’m pleased it was a mistake. Let’s hope she gives that stylist what for!

Kate Winslet should definitely do a Peta Ad because she’s already shown her support for the anti-fur campaign by choosing faux fur!
