Posh becomes latest celeb to piss off PETA

Victoria Beckham has become the latest target of Animal Rights Group PETA – and it's all because of her fondness for designer handbags. Posh is a big fan of design house Hermes, but PETA have recently discovered that the company farms crocodiles in Australia in order to use their skin. A spokeswoman for the group said, "The mere thought of purposely breeding and killing crocodiles for an outdated, overpriced handbag should make any fashionista's skin crawl. We will send Victoria Beckham, a compassionate person who won't wear fur, our undercover footage that shows how alligators and crocodiles are beaten to death and how snakes are nailed to trees and skinned alive for these products." Blimey. VB's official people have yet to comment on the statement, but it's worth PETA bearing in mind that one of Victoria's Hermes handbags was a gift from husband David and is worth over £76,000. We don't imagine she'll give that up anytime soon...

I find it more offensive that one of her handbags cost over £76, 000 - have they no idea how much that is in the real world!?

the reason PETA 'force thier opinions upon people' is because animals do not have voices and quite obviously cannot speak about thier suffering. and if you dont care about fur and how its made then how about you search for a few disgusting pictures.
