LOPEZ ATTACKED BY PROTESTERS AT HER RESTAURANT
Animal activists made diners at Jennifer Lopez's Pasadena, Calif., restaurant Madre's a little uneasy Thursday as they showed them images of animals skinned alive over lunch.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals followers took their fur protests against Lopez to a new level by protesting outside Madre's.
They also paraded large posters of Lopez with the words "Fur Hag" attached and placards featuring images of orphaned animals and the caption "J.Lo: These Babies Miss Their Mother -- Is She on Your Back?" as diners tried to eat lunch.
The activism was part of an ongoing campaign to shame Lopez for "promoting and profiting from the bloody fur industry."
The protest comes on the heels of the February debut of Lopez's fur-laden Sweetface fashion collection, which has been panned by critics and animal rights activists alike.
A PETA spokesman says, "Lopez continues to pimp for the fur industry despite the fact that PETA has contacted her no less than a dozen times, pleading with her to stop supporting the horrific abuse of animals killed for their fur."
PETA has also just launched an anti-J.Lo Web site JLodown.com, which urges the beauty to stop wearing fur.
