ALL
THE QUEENS HORSEMEN AND ALL THE QUEENS MEN COULDN’T
STOP PETA FROM GETTING MAD ABOUT THEIR FUR HATS
In case you haven’t heard, the People for
the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have been
trying to get the Queen to substitute faux fur
hats for the real ones worn by her guards. Well
the latest news (if you care to indulge) is that
designer STELLA McCARTNEY (as in Paul’s
daughter) has designed a fake alternative to the
bearskin hats worn by QUEEN ELIZABETH II's Royal
Guards.
According to a PETA spokesperson, "They
kill one black bear in Canada for each of her
(The Queen's) Guards' hats, and Stella McCartney
has designed an amazing fake."
But Britain's Ministry of Defense claims to have
no involvement in the venture. "We've been
looking at a synthetic hat for a while, but I've
not heard of Stella being involved." Singer
PINK recently wrote a letter to The Queen, on
behalf of PETA, asking her to stop the use of
bearskin hats.
That’s all we know for now. We’ll
keep you posted. If you are so inclined, you might
want to pray for those poor little bears.
