Animal rights groups chide Liz Hurley for Blackglama deal

Filed under: Elizabeth Hurley — Tara @ 2:04 pm


Elizabeth Hurley, who is known for her attachment to fashionable furs, might get shagged not by a spy but by animal rights
campaigners who have become more vocal about their contempt for Hurley especially with the new deal she snagged with
Blackglama American fur house.

Hurley, who is popularly known for her role in “The Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me” movie, will appear in
Blackglama’s advertisements promoting their furs. This may just be the straw that will break the camel’s back for the animal
rights activists who have started lambasting Hurley for getting paid by wearing baby minks–animals that are skinned as early
as six months for their furs.

PETA has started to criticize her career saying it is as dead as the animals that make up her wardrobe. The group said Hurley has no excuse for wearing real fur when there are lots of faux furs that are fantastic to wear. Hurley was featured topless in the Blackglama advertisements, wearing only the luxury furs.

In fairness to Hurley, she has been instrumental in raising $50 million in charity funds for the “Absolute Return for Kids”
organization.
