Top model, Natasja Vermeer is the latest model to pose nude fo PETA in PETA’s Anti-Fur ad. Natasja normally spends her days strutting on runways in New York, Paris, and Milan and gracing the cover of magazines around the world, but has taken time out of her busy schedule to strip down and pose nude to help animals.
In the ad, Natasja appears wearing only angel wings next to the tagline “Earn Your Wings. Lose the Fur.” Vermeer says: I don’t have a problem with going naked, but I do have a problem with fur!”
I have always wanted to do a PETA campaign since I was a little girl. I have always admired the work you all do at PETA for the animals. I love animals, and I have always been against fur. I don’t have a problem with going naked, but I do have a problem with fur!
I have never worn or modeled fur in my life. I have always made it very clear in my career that I am against it. One time, though, I showed up for my fitting with a big designer in Paris to find out there was fur in the collection. I told them I would not take the job because I am against fur. They wanted to have me do the job and no one else, so they replaced everything with fake fur (I can always tell the difference when I feel it). And of course, I’ve declined some work sometimes as well.
I think these celebrities are either ignorant or selfish. I do think the unawareness of the people is many times the reason why cruelty or destruction in the world continues, but I would hope the young celebrities of today know the cruelty behind manufacturing fur. If they can still wear it after having this knowledge, then they are just plain selfish and cruel. To have these animals suffer in such a way for the sake of their vanity is too much for me to believe and makes me sick. I have absolutely no respect for them.
