PETA-LICIOUS: Taraji P. Henson Goes NUDE Instead Of Rocking Fur

Well here's one bod I'm sure folks wouldn't mind seeing without fur.   Oscar nominated actress Taraji P. Henson has teamed up with animal rights group PETA to make it known she'd rather go naked than wear fur.

 

Her brand new nude and fabulous ad, plus what she has to say about why she's Team Anti-Fur, when you read on...

YBF celebs and sports figures seem to be signing on for PETA's anti-fur campaign left and right.  Fab chick Taraji Henson is the newest celeb to drop all her clothes and bare all for the "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" campaign.

Taraji, who turned 40 this past September, said she used to wear fur without giving it a second thought—until she saw a documentary that revealed how animals on fur farms are skinned alive. Now, the celebrated actress is the star of a provocative new Los Angeles billboard and New York flyposting campaign for PETA in which she declares, "Fur? I'd Rather Go Naked."

"Education is key," stresses Henson. "When I realized what went into—not just, we're not just even talking about a full-length fur coat, I'm talking about just, like, fur on your gloves or on your jacket … it ripped my heart out. And as humans, we have control. What if someone said, 'Black skin is the new fur'?"

"I don't think a living being should suffer for the sake of fashion, period. End of story," concludes Henson. "You don't have to kill an animal just because you want to be hot and fly. And I really stand by that."

She's set to officially unveil the campaign, which was shot by top celebrity photographer Don Flood, in person at PETA's New York Fashion Week bash on February 10.

Chick is looking fan-freakin'-tabulous in this ad.  WORK.  And behind-the-scenes video of her shoot and her speaking on why she chose to never wear fur:

I understand we have to eat

I understand we have to eat and I do enjoy my leather handbags. However, to be skinned alive is just not okay. It's not okay to kill animals for a coat. I love my dog, and would go ballistic if his fur was ripped off so I can have some damn hat. I'd like to hope one by one we could shut this industry down.

I don't know if anyone else get this vibe, but I could so see Taraji playing in a Bio-pic of Eartha Kitt. I think she could really pull it off if she gets the voice down. That's her Oscar right there.

How big is your ass? I mean really. If a black woman isn't ridonkulous what?? Is she less than a woman? You've so bought into that like everyone else. Nobody's taking a Peta add of you so be quiet. I don't understand why people base their self worth on the size of their behind-something you have absolutely nothing to do with. #lame #insecure

BITCH YOU CAN KEEP YOUR

BITCH YOU CAN KEEP YOUR CLOTHES OFF IF YOU WANT TO. I AM WEARING MY FURS AND WILL KICK ANYONE'S ASS THAT WILL TRY TO FUCK WITH MY MINK COATS. WHITE PEOPLE ARE EATING WILD ANIMALS ON MANY DINNER PARTY MENUS. GET REAL PEOPLE. HUNTERS MAKE RUGS OUT OF THE FURS AND PUT THE HEADS ON THE WALL. DO YOU HONESTLY THINK HUNTERS ARE GOING TO STOP HUNTING ANIMALS? THIS IS A IG MONEY BUSINESS. SO YOU FOOLS CONTINUE TO TAKE YOUR CLOTHES BUT BE WARE SOME COUNTRIES EAT PEOPLE AND WEAR THEIR BONES AND SKIN. EXAMPLE: TIGER NECKBONE SOUP. LEARN YOUR HISTORY. TRIBES IN AFRICA CONSIDER THE FUR OF ANIMALS AS CLOTHING TO KEEP WARM AND THE MARKMANSHIP OF A GREAT HUNTER.

Bitch tribes in Africa wait

Bitch tribes in Africa wait for the animal to die of either natural causes or they respectfully slaughtered and eaten and THEN, and I mean THEN only do they get worn as clothes. You can't talk about Africa if you aint been there yet and I am telling you think because I am in Africa as we speak. Get your facts straight, that footage potrays cruelty to animals nothing African.

Did you watch that video?

Did you watch that video? Did you see someone rip the flesh off of a living breathing animal? That is not hunting. At least hunters actually kill the animal. These people just skin is alive.

And how many african tribes

And how many african tribes are in america lol? I don't have a problem with tribal people of any race killing animals for survival but their not doing it for fashion, and sport hunting is just as ignorant. Just because something is big business doesn't mean you don't try to change it.
