Kelis Takes on PETA
R&B singer and songwriter Kelis seems to always have a little controversy surrounding her. This time she is taking on PETA — People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, after they attacked her.
What’s their beef (pun intended)? Check out the photo above and you will have your answer. The singer believes that PETA president Ingrid Newkirk is “nuts” after Kelis received a letter from PETA. Now she has decided to write an open-letter on her MySpace blog.
“There is no humane way to kill anything, let me start there. It’s unfortunate but it’s part of life. With that being said, I would eat pterodactyl if you found some and you told me it was meaty and delicious. And after doing a very minimal amount of research…I found that the founder Ingrid Newkirk is completely batty. I had a feeling, but she far exceeded my expectations. I mean certifiably insane.”
What wouldn’t Kelis wear? “If I started wearing endangered animals like polar bear or orangutan then talk to me. But the minks and chinchilla, quite honestly, are rodents and if they weren’t in the form of a coat, I would demand they be put to death anyway. They are not an issue to me.

Well well well look what da cat dragged in!
Is SHE doin anythin for those associations she mentioned?
Its wonderful playing the Diva and stepping on everyone’s toes but I thought she had enough problems already and rather than waste ink and paper on selfish and pathetic pro fur comments I suggest she watch her behind as Nas is goin to pull the rug from under Miss High&Mighty hasbeen rap singer.I was rootinn for her before this letter but I couldn’t care a $hit now!Her fur coats,boleros and toques won’t pay the bills when her sugardaddy Nas isn’t around anymore.
Yes we all have a right to our opinions.I just gave mine.I quite simply find her letter to Peta unneccessary and …okay I’m goin to say it…censure me if you will I don’t care…BITCHY!
PETA may not be perfect but somebody’s got to do the dirty job and the means justify the ends imo!
Um they need to finish skinning that before they roast it..
hilarious. i like her even more. “meaty and delicious”
Does she eat pork too.Remember, A pig is smarter than a dog. Would you eat your pet dog?
