PETA

For her new PETA ad, Penelope Cruz is showing some serious skin.

Not a lot of it, mind you, but what she does show is quite intense!

The actress and wife of Javier Bardem is the latest famous face to join the animal-rights group (joining Taraji P. Henson, Elisabetta Canalis, Olivia Munn and many others) in its anti-fur fight, putting her sultry stare to good use.

What do you think of Cruz's PETA pic? Peep it below ...

No matter how useless an organization PETA is, contributing these Olivia Munn pictures is worth something, so give them due credit for their new ad campaign.

The Daily Show correspondent is the latest to strip for the animal rights group's popular, headline-grabbing "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" effort.

The ad was unveiled Thursday in L.A., showing the 31-year-old Olivia Munn nude with a rabbit below the tagline "Who needs fur to feel beautiful?"

Apparently, not her:

After the billboard was unveiled, Munn tweeted "Please don't wear fur. Even a tiny bit of fur trim caused an animal extreme suffering & took a life."

Not necessarily, there is fur all over our car from the deer we hit the other night, but that little guy ran off into the woods just fine afterward.

Anyway, point taken. Olivia follows in the nude footsteps of Khloe Kardashian, Elisabetta Canalis, Angela Simmons, Karina Smirnoff and others!

PETA doesn't care that Super Bowl viewers saw a glimpse of Janet Jackson's boob a few years ago.

This irritating organization is far more concerned over the fact that the singer is wearing a fur coat in a new promotional ad for her Blackgama clothing line, as seen here:

Naming Jackson its Grinch of the Year, PETA issued a statement this week that reads:

"When Janet Jackson had her infamous 'wardrobe malfunction' during the Super Bowl, at least the flesh that popped into view was her own. Unlike the stolen animal skins that she drapes herself with, which are as dead as her taste in fashion (not to mention her career). Ms. Jackson, you're just plain nasty."

And PETA knows a thing or two about nastiness. In order to drum up attention for itself animals, the company is starting a porn site.

Kelly Brook is smoking hot. PETA loves publicity. It was a match made in heaven to paint the UK model like a snake for this new ad campaign.

"Whose skin are you in?" she asks, nude, slithering in painted snake skin.

"It makes my skin crawl to think about the ways snakes, lizards, alligators and other exotic creatures are raised and killed for boots, bags and belts."

Seriously. And what better way to show your opposition than this:

As snakes in the grass go, this one isn't all that gross.

Dear PETA: We are very sorry.

For years, we've mocked you as an organization that cares more about publicity than efficiency, focusing on the strange reasoning in your ad campaigns that photos of naked D-listers would somehow inspire others to NOT wear fur.

But we take it all back. Every last word and criticism, and it's all due to the following nude shots of Elisabetta Canalis. George Clooney, we have no idea what you were thinking...

Says the model of her belief system: "These poor animals are electrocuted, skinned alive, drowned, and bludgeoned just for the sake of fashion... Don’t buy fur. Even a little trim - your gloves or your bag or your jackets... You must remember that animals don’t have a voice. You must be their voice. Never be afraid to speak up."

Canalis is a contestant on the new season of Dancing with the Stars, which ought to increase male viewership on that competition by about 879% this fall.

PETA.

Those shameless animal lovers will stop at nothing when it comes to saving innocent creatures from harm. Or more accurately, stirring up publicity.

Still, this latest eyebrow-raising move set the bar lower than we thought even they could go: They're planning a porn site. Yes, this is true.

This Joanna Krupa nude poster? Tame compared to PETA (dot) XXX.

"The racy things we do are sometimes the most effective way that we can get a message to particular individuals," PETA spokeswoman Lindsay Rajt said.

Instead of focusing on anti-fur, the porn site will raise awareness of veganism, said Rajt, adding, "We really want to grab people's attention."

So how pornographic will PETA go to do that?

Former Scrubs star Donald Faison and girlfriend Cacee Cobb, Jessica Simpson's BFF and former personal assistant, are engaged, People reports.

The news was first spread by Faison's Scrubs costar Zach Braff, Tweeting: "Congrats to @donald_faison and @caceecobb on their engagement."

"Just wish I was there to run around you both with sparklers."

Faison, 37, has a son from a previous marriage. It will be the first for Cobb, 33, a pal and former personal assistant to Jessica Simpson, with whom she co-starred on The Price of Beauty, and prior to that, on Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica.

For his part, Faison Tweeted Friday, "If you like it then you better put a Ring on it. – Beyonce," with Cobb replying, "If she likes it then she better say YES!!"

Ah, true love in the age of Twitter.

Have you been wondering what Brooke Hogan has been up to? No? We're gonna tell you anyway.

The former reality star has posed naked for PETA as part of that lame organization's "Women in Cages" campaign. It held an event in Miami last night where numerous portraits of residents baring it all were sold, and Brooke took her dad their in honor of his 58th birthday.

Just when you thought it couldn't get creepier than Hulk marrying someone who looks like just like his daughter...

This is

They are more than just two of the funniest stars on the big screen.

Kristen Wiig and Russell Brand are also a pair of sexy folks who refrain from eating meat. As a result, the duo has been crowned PETA's Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrities of 2011!

She also may have watched her own movie, as some of the funniest Bridesmaids quotes emanate from a scene in which the ladies get food poisoning as the result of eating meat.

Elisabetta Canalis is the latest celebrity to plead for animal protection by taking her clothes off.

The beautiful girlfriend of George Clooney will campaign against fur this fall, when her official photo shoot is released, but she's already gone on record with her reason for participating in the ads.

"I was a kid, a little girl, and was watching TV at home and they showed a documentary. And in the documentary I saw how they killed little animals, like electrocuting them, drowning them, bludgeoning them. I was shocked because I was a little girl, but by that moment I thought that I would never, never, never wear fur in my life."
