Former "Baywatch" beauty Pamela Anderson sparked a media frenzy in
London June 28 night as she disrobed in the window of Stella
McCartney's Mayfair boutique.
Anderson was protesting the use of fur in fashion for PETA's (People for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals) annual gala event, and provided the show in the
shop windows.
Covering the naughty bits, Anderson plastered a banner saying "I'd rather
bare skin than wear skin", Anderson went on later criticizing fashionistas
Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce Knowles for utilizing fur in their fashion lines, and
personal use.
According to PageSix.com, Anderson was reported to have said, "My message
would be to please start using fake fur. It's terrible because people see stars
like J.Lo and Beyonce wearing fur and they don't think about the cruelty that
goes into it."
At the PETA awards event, Anderson gave awards for like-minded campaigners
including actress Gillian Anderson, rocker Chrissie Hynde, actor Sir Roger Moore
and tennis legend Martina Navratilova.
