The Cast Of The Jungle Book Was Killed To Make Beyonce's Sneakers

Beyonce is already on PETA's shit list, because of all the yaks and Andalusians horses she's skinned to make her wigs and now they're really coming at her for the sneakers she co-designed and put her name on. The "King Bey Isabel Marant Sneaker Wedge" was designed by Beyonce and Isabel Marant for PMK (stands for Perfectly Made Kicks, not Pimp Mama Kris) and several zoo creatures were skinned to make those shoes. That anaconda that almost killed JLo in that movie? It's on Beyonce's shoes. That ballet-dancing ostrich from Fantasia? It's on Beyonce's shoes. That photobombing stingray from one of my favorite pictures of 2012? It's on Beyonce's shoes. All the animals are on there!

PETA pushed out a statement about Beyonce's sneakers, because they're PETA and pushing out statements is what they do. They also don't appreciate that King Bey's sneakers are made of calf hair, anaconda, stingray, ostrich and crocodile skins. Here's their statement via Gossip Cop:

“These custom-made kicks come with a high price—and it’s paid by the various animals who were beaten and skinned alive or cruelly farmed and killed. Although most people aren’t as familiar with the types of animals (snakes, stingrays, crocodiles, and ostriches) killed for this single pair of sneakers as they are with the cats and dogs we share our homes with, these animals are highly sensitive living beings who try hard to avoid capture and suffer enormously when trapped, netted, speared, and skinned alive.

We hope that Beyoncé will choose to wear more clothes from her own clothing line—which features faux fur—and that one day, she’ll go completely cruelty-free. She can always choose the cruelty-free and “green” fashion favored by compassionate, chic celebrities such as Natalie Portman and Anne Hathaway and designers such as award-winning fashion queen Stella McCartney.”

The most surprising part of all of this is that they weren't made by Kanye Kardashian and they aren't strapped to Kim's hooves. That shoe is a new kind of ugly. It looks like a pile of white dog shit. It looks like a foot ripped off of a mummy's body. It looks like a straitjacket for your feet. And how many animals died just so Beyonce could make her feet look fuglier? How. Dread. Ful.

Poor snakes. I saw an article recently about how they killed them and they filled them up with water like a balloon and tied them shut to loosen the skin. Then they skinned them alive and threw them in a pile. They were all piled up in agony, and it took them a few days to die from shock or dehydration.

And this dumb bitch wants them for the trim on her shoes.

I remember one time when an animal rights group (don't remember which) bid on a "date" with her at a charity auction and sat down at lunch and ambushed her with a video of how her House of Dereon clothes were made (the fur.) She got furious and left.

Did PETA just hear of Beyonce yesterday? Bitch wouldn't wear her Derriere line even if you paid her ass.

Those shoes are fug, and her extravagance is as disgusting as her bullshit documentary. Fuck her and her camel-faced husband.

I don't have a problem if someone hates PETA but I think most people hate PETA because they hate anything that points out the ugly truth behind things. It's easier to just call PETA crazy and take their kids to the circus with their heads up their asses than admit that those circus animals are abused slaves to a ridiculous industry.

********************

THIS. I can't fucking stand the circus. I literally got into an argument with a friend because I wouldn't go with them and their kid to the circus. Fuck you because you don't want to open your eyes and see what it's about. I can't handle people who refuse to see the truth.

I totally understand and agree that PETA doesn't always have the best tactics. I hate their flour throwing crazy antics. But they have a good heart. I live 5 minutes away from their headquarters and I've found injured (even wild) animals and called them, many times, even at 9 pm on a sunday night...and their vet has met me in pajamas to help the animal. Those are my kind of people.

I am definitely one of those people that think a life is a life, no matter what. Just because something can't speak, walk upright, or live as a pet in your home doesn't make it any less deserving of a cruelty free life. If you think you are more entitled than any other living being on this Earth, then fuck off. :)
-------------------------------------------

I like your style. I don't have kids yet but when I do...their asses are staying home from school on field trip circus days. We'll go to a museum instead. I think I'll get a lot of crap for that from teachers/parents but I don't care.
The doctor I worked for was telling me how the elephants were walking down 7th ave the day before the circus was going to be at Madison Square Garden. I must have let out a guttural "Ugh" when she said it because she said "What? The elephants looked happy!"

Really? REALLY? Some people are willfully ignorant....those are the dangerous ones.

You caught that dick statement he made right in front of her to the Zanucks, right? About trading in his wives 'cause of all his marriages? He strikes me as an arrogant douche.

As for Mohammed, way, creepy! You remember the orgy dungeon/basement room from last season, right? Yolanda probably scored him by doing Dutch rim jobs....I don't know what that is, just now made it up :)...sounds dirtier, right? Like a Cleveland Steamer or smthg.

But yeah, that's it. Although we can't have it we're supposed to want it and to think she's cool for having it. She's a a fake Illuminati reality show for low self esteem bitches and if you can't make that, there's Rihanna, if you really can't picture yourself as Beyonce.

I hate PETA because they are hypocritical and nothing short of exploitive terrorists. There are plenty of charities that support animals that actually DO good work. I have friends who run a no kill shelter and manage to do so without throwing paint on people or exploiting women for profit in the name of 'animal rights'. They do this with money out of their own pockets and just 1 other volunteer (it's a husband/wife team). I think more people would be sympathetic to PETA if they weren't assholes. I will get flamed for this and I don't care. PETA is the vegan equivalent to the Westboro Baptist 'Church'.

there are nutrients from animal product you can not get from a vegetarian diet. i don't care what vegetarians want to say or what kind of spin they want to put on it. a vegetarian diet is not nearly as healthy a one that contains organic dairy and a little lean poultry, lean beef and fish. period. with that said, americans consume way too much protein. the average woman needs about 30-40 grams a day and the average male about 50-60. the typical westerner consumes well over 100 grams a day. and that is conservative. many people over 200. eggs, dairy, poultry, and meat can be purchased from animals that are clean and organic based, and very humanely treated. it will cost you more, but then again, you don't need all that much. you just need to do your research and know where to look. whole foods is great if you have one in your area.
