PETA Gossip

Phew.

When we heard Perez Hilton was posing for a PETA campaign, we got worried.

It's bad enough for that organization to waste money on celebrity endorsements (over actually saving animals), but its posters usually feature the naked bodies of D-listers such as Joanna Krupa and Alicia Silverstone.

We've eaten in the last six weeks, so the last thing we wanna see is Perez Hilton nude. Fortunately, the self-serving blogger didn't take his advertisement that far - but we still can't help but wonder what purpose the image below serves.

Based on Hilton's reputation, seal clubbing may very well rise in Canada after our friends up north see who is against it.

Perez Hilton wants to save the seals. Based on his resemblance to this species, we can understand why.

Paris Hilton apparently bought a pet mini-pig recently.

We know. This is as terrible an idea as you think it is.

Rightfully assuming the poor little creature will be neglected and treated like crap, PETA has fired off a statement calling the ho-tel heiress "wretched example" by treating animals like they're "as disposable as her friends and fiances."

BURN!

PETA continues of Paris: "The Chihuahuas, ferrets, and kinkajous she's paraded through her home in the past were not accessories, and pot-bellied pigs aren't either."

Doug Reinhardt definitely is, at least.

We gotta agree with PETA for the first time ever here. Any dumbass who says she won't get swine flu because she doesn't eat pork clearly lacks the mental capacity to care for defenseless living creatures. Or to finish the 11th grade.

BOO! OINK! AWW: Little teacup piglets gather in a jack-o-lantern, just in time for Halloween! So cute. Sadly, the thought of one living with Paris is frightful.

Playboy Playmate of the Year 2008, Brody Jenner girlfriend and Audrina Patridge mortal enemy Jayde Nicole is the latest hottie to get naked to promote PETA.

As for how many poor, furry creatures are actually saved by this photo of Jayde Nicole nude in a lettuce bikini, we can't say. But that's neither here nor there.

We just hope that's some sort of tofu dog she's grasping in the "Go Veg!" PETA ad below. Otherwise, cows and sheep are gonna flood us with hate mail ...

If this ad for PETA doesn't make you wanna eat more salad, you're just not human. Or you just prefer girls without "RESPECT" tattoos directly above their va-jay-jays.

Our words, not theirs. But Nadya Suleman is indeed looking into getting a pet, and we feel our headline speaks for just about everyone.

As if 14 mouths to feed with taxpayer money weren't enough, Octomom is thinking about purchasing a pet - an idea frowned upon by PETA, which, for some reason, believes that a new member of the family is not a bright idea.

"In today's uncertain economy - and with all the demands that come with raising 14 children - we urge you to reconsider adding more dependents to your family," PETA's Michelle Cho wrote in a letter to Nadya Suleman.

The unemployed mother of the longest-surviving octuplets in history (and six older kids) who relies on public assistance to pay for eight nannies and other bills, said last week that she was considering adding a pet to the mix.

"For a couple of years, the kids have been asking for a dog," Octomom said. "I've actually been looking into a pig, like a little one."

PETA is begging Suleman to reconsider.

"Like children, pigs and dogs are intelligent, social beings with complex needs," Cho wrote to Octomom, who also wastes taxpayer funds by filing frivolous lawsuits.

"They require a lot of attention, space, and exercise as well as a huge financial commitment."

Finance, schminance. Hey, when you've got the entire (broke) State of California backing you up, why not rack up the tab a little higher?

Suleman said that if she were to buy a pig, it would wear a diaper and live outside the house because it reeks. Again, PETA wasn't happy.

"Keeping a pig outside and making him or her a playmate for your children - who do not understand a pig's needs and will only pay attention to him or her when it suits them - is not an acceptable way to treat an intelligent animal," Cho wrote.

Instead of pets, PETA encouraged Octomom to make friends. Good luck there. We hear Jon Gosselin may be available in the near future ...

Audrina Patridge was no angel on The Hills the other night, making eyes at Brody Jenner while his girlfriend, Jayde Nicole, was far from pleased.

But the reality star has certainly earned a set of wings (which look great with that sexy white bikini, if you ask us) in her new campaign for PETA!

On a billboard set to be unveiled today on L.A.'s Beverly Boulevard, Audrina Patridge poses in a provocative angel outfit with her rescued dog, Speedy Gonzalez, next to the line, "Be an Angel for Animals-Always Adopt, Never Buy."

Audrina Patridge looks so good in this ad, we'll forgo the usual PETA wise cracks. We much prefer Speedy Gonzalez to that other dog she's often seen with, Justin-Bobby.

In a statement released by PETA, Audzo says, in support of the animal rights group, "Each year, 6-8 million unwanted dogs and cats are turned in to shelters, and half are killed because there aren't enough good homes."

"The solution to this problem is as easy as ABC - animal birth control. Always spay and neuter, and never buy from a pet store or a breeder."

Good for her for supporting a good cause. Check out spoilers and pics of Audrina and the rest of the cast of the hit show at yesterday's Paley Fest!

PETA says it's all for the ethical treatment of animals, yet wastes so much time on photo shoots of Holly Madison nude (not that we're complaining) that could be spent intervening when animals are actually treated unethically.

We saw two such cases yesterday.

Now back in St. Lucia after a tumultuous few weeks back home, Amy Winehouse rode a wild beast hard on the beach - and we're not talking about Josh Bowman.

Poor thing. Do heroin and cocaine give you contact highs?

Meanwhile, Miley Cyrus took time out from hating on Robert Pattinson to climb atop a beautiful, strapping being of her own in a shoot for Teen Vogue.

Of course, no one considers the innocent horse's feelings in being manipulated and used as a mere prop as part of Miley's constant bid for attention.

Whose noble steed should PETA rescued first? Tell us below ...

Which horse do you feel most sorry for?

If you need a little more information upon which to base your decision, just click to enlarge some more photos of the respective stars on horseback:

Leave it to PETA to make naked, fur-free headlines.

Cloris Leachman, 82, is making friends with salad as PETA's newest nude spokeswoman. In her new ad, the former Dancing With the Stars contestant dons just lettuce and cabbage leaves for the campaign "Let Vegetarianism Grow on You."

Lettuce just say this: Ewww! Peep it below, if you dare ...

A vegetarian, Cloris Leachman is donning her edible dress in New York City's Times Square today. Mmm. You know you want to head down there and eat that piece.

In the past, we've gotten Shanna Moakler, Jenna Jameson and Holly Madison nude for PETA. The animal rights group has totally jumped the shark.

"With that big study out last week showing how skipping meat allows you to live longer, it's perfect timing," a PETA rep said of the provocative ad.

By posing nude, Cloris Leachman, who has already given half of The Hollywood Gossip's writing staff nightmares by regaling us with stories about having sex with Gene Hackman, has officially outdone even herself. Thanks a lot, lady.

Ad ad featuring a bevy of hot girls who are definitely not vegetarians in real life unable to resist the temptation of veggies was deemed too hot for the Super Bowl.

NBC rejected the video because of concerns over "rubbing one's pelvic region with pumpkin," a woman "making love to herself with broccoli," and much more.

It's definitely worth a look if you want a quick laugh, or if you're the type who gets turned on by vegetarianism more than, say, Girls Next Door Playboy covers.

Take a look at the seductive, banned PETA commercial - which had been scheduled to run during Sunday's big game until NBC nixed it - after the jump ...

Khloe Kardashian has a response to those that have accused her of being a hypocrite for wearing a fur coat earlier this year: my bad!

The new PETA spokeswoman, whose nude billboard has been the source of contention among critics that claim it's just a supposedly tasteful way to garner attention for posing naked, admits she used to don animal-made clothing.

But not anymore.

Khloe Kardashian has gone from modeling fur to modeling her bare body.

"As some of you might have seen today, there are several people who have taken to the web calling me a hypocrite and posting photos of me wearing fur," Khloe wrote on her blog. "The reason PETA approached me initially is because in my past I did wear fur and they wanted to educate me on the brutal ways in which animals are skinned for their pelts."

Kardashian said she watched a PETA video and:

"I was so horrified that I immediately swore off fur. I just wanted to let you know the real story behind my conscious decision and compassionate change of heart. I have changed my ways and I hope that many other people will as well."

Do you think Khloe is actually anti-fur, or just pro-publicity?

While the possible cousin she used to sponge off hard, Britney Spears, readied for a trip to Japan, Alli Sims was spotted leaving hot spot Deluxe in Hollywood and shocked onlookers (or at least The Hollywood Gossip) by wearing a fur coat.

Come on, PETA. You loons are slacking. Where is some whack job with a bucket of red paint when you need one? Girl is practically begging for an ambush - and it's Alli Sims! It's not like she's got the cash to pay a team of lawyers to sue you.

Hopefully next time Alli won't be so brazen - or PETA will step up to the plate if she is. We wanna see another awesome confrontation, Lindsay Lohan flour attack style!

Here's more photos of Alli Sims exiting the club if anyone cares ...
