PETA to Brooke Shields: You're a Fur Pimp!
PETA is at it again.
No, the attention-seeking organization is actually not posing a D-list celebrity naked this time, wasting money on a campaign that could otherwise be spent on the lives of animals.
Instead, the company is taking at at Brooke Shields, after the actress visited Kopenhagen Fur's workshop in March and said:
"I will advocate that both my generation and the younger generation can wear fur" and "I will wear the fur garment when I follow my children to school, when I drink coffee and when I sleep."
We must say: those are especially odd comments to make. Of all the causes to advocate, who chooses fur?!?
PETA held nothing back in its response, calling out Shields and her floundering career:
"When I was a little girl, I dreamed about growing up to be a rock star. Or maybe a veterinarian. Or a roller derby queen. I didn't dream about anally electrocuting animals on fur farms, but apparently Brooke Shields did.
"We understand that when some actors' careers begin to fade, they'll do just about anything to stay in the limelight, including appearing in eyelash-growing commercials and starring in short-lived TV shows. But Brooke, did you really want the world to remember you as a 'fur pimp' who stares agog at rows of animal skins?"
We have to (painfully) admit: we agree with PETA in this one instance. How about you?

Brooke Shields Laments Lack of Teenage Sex
Apparently Bristol Palin does not have a body image issue.
At least that's what one could take away from a new interview with Brooke Shields, in which the star wishes she would've cashed in her v-card a lot sooner.
Had she not had so many issues with her self esteem, that is.
In a ridiculously candid chat with Health Magazine, Brooke said her biggest health regret was image-related: "Not learning to love the way I looked earlier."
"I think I would have had sex a lot earlier!" she reflected on her more insecure days. "I definitely think I would have lost my virginity earlier than I did at 22."
Making these comments more surprising is the fact that when dudes salivated over Brooke Shields nude in The Blue Lagoon (1982), she was 15 at the time.
Kiefer Sutherland Head-Butts Fashion Designer
Celebrity fashion designer Jack McCollough was allegedly headbutted by actor Kiefer Sutherland at a party in lower Manhattan early Tuesday morning.
Denying he initiated any altercation, he's slamming reports that he provoked the 24 star, who said he only acted to protect actress Brooke Shields.
"Anyone who knows Jack McCollough knows that he would not hurt a fly," a rep for McCollough, of the New York fashion empire Proenza Schouler, said.
"All we can say at this point is that he was the victim of a vicious, violent, unprovoked assault and that the matter is in the hands of the authorities."
Jack McCollough's nose was broken in the incident.
One report claims that Jack McCollough bumped into fellow MET gala guest Shields, prompting Kiefer Sutherland to get physical with the designer.
But New York's Daily News says McCollough – a friend of Shields' – interrupted her and Sutherland while they were speaking outside the SoHo nightspot SubMercer, and Sutherland head-butted him after the two men exchanged words.
Another guest says Kiefer demanded Jack apologize to Brooke - for what, no one knows - and Jack allegedly pushed Kiefer, who headbutted Jack.
In any event, the altercation came as a surprise to bystanders:
"Jack walked into the party and tried to order a drink, and then the next thing he knew, he got headbutted for no identifiable reason." [McCollough] did nothing other than walk into a party. He did not bump into Brooke Shields. It's just puzzling.”
The NYPD said the incident remains under investigation.
For her part, Shields' rep said "nothing happened to her," adding "Jack did nothing inappropriate. It's not clear what caused Kiefer to do what he did."

Brooke Shields is in Shape
Brooke Shields is enjoying her second act in Hollywood.
The actress is starring on Lipstick Jungle and in a handful of hilarious Volkswagon ads.
Shields also graces the cover of the latest issue of Shape and explains that her tall body has always made it a challenge to be comfortable in her own skin.
"I'm not petite," said the six-foot tall actress. "I've never been very frail or small, so I've had to find ways to celebrate that. And it's really my strength that I celebrate."
As for what this beauty does to stay slim, Shields said:
"I spin and I do yoga, and that's it ... I can carry my kids and I can dance and my legs get me through Broadway shows. And to me, when they function for me, not just look a certain way, then I feel lucky."
