celebrities with a cause

posh here… 

Pop star Pink, an ongoing supporter of PETA’s campaigns for animal rights, is taking her cause to the streets.  The New York City streets, to be exact . . .

As part of a campaign urging people to “Say no to horse drawn carraige rides!”, the singer is crusading to ban carraige horses and send the animals out to pasture.

“Every time I see a horse-drawn carriage in a concrete jungle, I point and yell ‘animal cruelty’ at the top of my lungs to try to make the driver and occupants as uncomfortable as possible. It honestly hurts my heart when I think of what those horses must be feeling, as far as anxiety and fear, and how unnatural and wrong it is for these animals to have blinders on, trotting up and down on concrete, while taxis blare and people scream. It’s absolutely unnatural and ignorant of us to continue this outdated tradition. What about this is romantic?”

I’ve made no secret of my dislike for PETA’s hateful tactics and aggressive campaigns, but I do respect Pink for standing up for a cause that she believes in.  And sticking to it.  Girl hasn’t wavered in her commitment to being a voice for her furry friends.
