PETA Names Janet Jackson Grinch Of The Year For Designing Fur Line

PETA just can’t let an old dog rest. The animal rights organization stirred up its nearly year-old campaign against singer Janet Jackson, who added part-time furrier to her resume with a gig designing a collection for Blackglama. Time and again PETA called for her to denounce fur, and now that she hasn’t, it’s named her the first ever PETA Grinch of the Year.

The award (if you can call it that) comes with the distinction of having fully and totally pissed PETA off enough to have its members formally call you a meanie-head. And from the tone of PETA’s spokespeople, they’re not going to let Jackson forget just how angry they are.

“When Janet Jackson had her infamous wardrobe malfunction during Super Bowl XXXVIII, at least what popped into view of 170 million onlookers belonged to her, unlike the animal skins she drapes herself in, which are as dead as her fashion taste and her career.”

Low blow. PETA also named unapologetic fur wearers Cameron Crowe and Kim Kardashian to the list. We can’t wait to see who gets added in 2012 — and whether or not it actually makes any difference in whether or not they wear fur.
