kelis6“I feel very strongly about a lot of things such as the sweatshops that spin cotton and the blood on their hands. Btw it’s not just the look of fur. It’s warm as hell and feels glorious, ever rubbed faux fur on your body? Nothing luxurious about that. Then the letter proceeded to name artist and designers who don’t wear real fur. Great! More for me! I don’t judge them, don’t judge me.”

- Kelis blabbing about how proud she is to wear real fur. Gross, gross and gross. It’s no secret that Ecorazzi has been and will always be totally anti-fur. Besides being a byproduct of animal cruelty, the fur industry is way crappy for Mother Earth.  Our pal Simon Reyes recently took to GlobalGrind.com to share her thoughts on Kelis’ response. We think you should check it out!

    She seems frivolous: obviously not understanding why people are opposed to fur. Eh, her milkshake was played out years ago.

    I went thru the 76 comments about this person…Now I really feel like vomiting. Amongst uncouth personal attacks, racist comments, and the cynical attitude towards sentient beings make one tremble from the base up. God help the animals that cannot defend themselves from the human race which is still as primitive as the neanderthals.

    • Adri

      I agree, those comments were depressing. What is wrong with people?

        Simone said it very well though. :-) And like her there are lots of people..

    • YOU PEOPLE ARE DELUSIONAL

      You dumb ass people make me sick. Animals were put on earth for human consumption. Why just stop at animals that walk or fly? What about fish for example? Were they wrong in the bible for fishing? I didn’t think so. Were they wrong in the bible for sacrificing lambs? I didn’t think so. Get over it. Just because you don’t eat meat or like the idea of animals being slaughtered doesn’t mean you should try and force your opinions off on others. Why call out celebrities? Why not bombard all the hunt clubs in America? What, are you afraid because they have guns? Get out of here. Like I said, you people are delusional. If you don’t want to eat meat, wear leather or furs good for you. Stick to your morals and be happy. You’re only hurting yourself worrying about those of us who do. We don’t give a damn about your opinions. Anything meaty and tasty I’ll consume and I’d spit it in your face if you would dare say anything to me. The issue is that these types of organizations pick on those who are weak. Kelis, like me, isn’t weak and we are going to do what we want, when and where we want to do it. It’s the American way. Get over it! Is it okay for the wolves to eat the sheep? Why not do something about that. I tell you what, how about we put you in a cage with a bear and give you a shotgun and see how long your “love” for animals endures. You freaking hypocrites. Get a life. Meat is yummy and there is nothing you can do about it. Fur is luxurious, nothing else compares. Like Kelis stated in her reply, go live in a forest with the wild beasts and see how much they love your dumb asses back. You’ll be mangled before you know it. While that bear is chewing off your damn legs I want to hear you say “I love you bear” lol. Get a life you batty animal freaks.

        your bible is complete fiction.

        BE CAREFUL! YOUR HATRED MAY EAT ALIVE!
        NOW, GO ON & TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY BECAUSE YOUR SOUL HAS ALREADY GONE TO HELL!

      • Jay’me Golden

        You are exactly the reason that this world is full of hate and cruelty. It is because of people like you who are totally indifferent to all living beings, Im sure you are an abuser of humans and animals alike…you need to get a life and say and do things that are more important and productive…

      • http://vegan--japan.blogspot.com/ herwin

        no, they were not wrong in the bible about fishing. I think, there are few if any veggie people who seriously think that small scale fishing for food just like in these days would be wrong . It’s today’s modern fishing methods with enormous boats and sonar for locating fish, destroying the ecosystem in the sea, that we consider wrong, just as fishing for fun when you dont fish for food but just for the pleasure to see an animal die.

        yes , they were wrong in the bible to sacrifice lambs. If you have been to church lately you might have noticed that they don’t do that anymore.

        i think, it is you and the people like you who force your believes on other living beings. You force your “might is right” believes on thousands of innocent animals who have to suffer and die, all for the vanity of a few.

        “meat is yummy”. I would say this statement of yours clearly shows you choose Glutony over Compassion. Glutony Uber Alles, so to speak. Since you have read the bible, you should know how much the Bible condems glutony or all these selfish acts, the whole “might is right” mentallity, and how much the Bible is about Compassion. Since in these times there werent Factory Farming or Fur Farms, the Bible didnt write about these problems. But the Bible tells us that God created the world, so i think its logical we also should have compassion for Gods Creatures.
        Think about it. ;-)

      • Grantsch

        You are a complete idiot.

        You are a stupid troll.

        Go away troll, go away.

      • deedee

        hahahaha. you’re funny. well, not really. scary’s more the word. and to make a long story short… YOU are the DELUSIONAL one. just hope in your next life, you’re not another species of animal besides a human, because somehow,i don’t think you will have the same opinions about them if you are.i’ve lived for years without animal products, so your comment about animals being here for our “use” is unfounded. nice try, but try again.

      • http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=9FD18926170ED901&search_query=earthlings Whoever…

        I’m not even going to comment on this “It’s warm as hell and feels glorious, ever rubbed faux fur on your body?”! Stupid ignorant fool. This is not a matter of personal choice! Do the animals who are skinned alive have a choice?

        “Animals were put on earth for human consumption.” Says who? The bible? The bible is nothing but a made-up story to control the zombifeid masses.

        Have you ever read the ‘original texts’? Do you know what Translation is? Do you have any idea how much the translations (and the translations of the translations) of the bible have been changed?

        Oh, and isn’t one of the 10 commandments “Thou shall not kill”? Kill what? Humans? Animals? Humans and animals? What kind of perfect god would create such an ambiguous commandment?

        And isn’t mentioned in the bible that all creatures are god’s creatures? So it’s okay for him (why is he male?) to sacrifice some of his creatures (animals) and protect others (humans)? That seems like an unfair, cruel god to me! And what kind of god would demand that living creatures should be sacrificed to him? That sounds more like a satanic thing!!

        So please do not even mention the bible, which is nothing but a load of crap written by the elite! Why do you think the Inquisition and the Crusades were created? So that everyone would be forced to accept the bible as a dogma and thus control the masses. What kind of god would allow humans to murder other humans in his name?

        It’s the American way. You mean like this?
        http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/

        “go live in a forest with the wild beasts and see how much they love your dumb asses back” I thought, accordingly to you, that we were superior to animals… Why should we go live in forests?
        Pathetic… It’s like saying that if you defend human life you should then go live in places where crime is the highest!!

    • ddpalmer

      What god do you mean. Do you mean the God of the bible that told people to eat the animals?

      • bitter old man

        Where, specifically, in the bible does he say that? And which bible?

      • dman

        There are 3 diets God outlined in the Bible – Adam and Eve were to eat raw fruits and vegetables, Daniel was to eat raw fruits and vegetables, and then in Ezekiel God adds breads made from sprouted grains. There is also the manna from the Exodus.

        People say that God gave men animals to eat – not true – Genesis tells us that God gave man dominion over animals (which means keep and protect in Hebrew).

        In Genesis 6 God does tell Noah that he can eat animals – but that is only because it is after the flood and no fruits or vegetables are found on they earth and God says that because man will have to eat animals (temporarily) God will give animals fear of man. Romans 8 tells us creation is still awaiting us reverting back to the original deal (where we didn’t eat animals).

        God does give some laws in Leviticus for animal slaughter (because he was trying to control man from improper treatment of the animals they were not suppose to be eating). Also during the Exodus God gave man quail to eat after they complained about the vegan diet – but what happens to them after they eat their fill of meat . . . they all get sick.

        God does allow man to eat meat in other areas and he permits slaughter because man refuses to live under the law, but it has never been His intention for man to eat meat (if He created us and He wanted us to eat meat then he made a major mistake in our saliva – since we have the saliva of fruititarians)

        Historically most of the early Christian church was vegetarian – history tells us that vegetarianism in the early church was pretty much a prerequisite until around 300AD.

        So the diet God gives in the Bible is high Raw Vegan.

        Bitter old man – I am not familiar with other Bible’s. There are a number of translations out there – but they are all based on the original texts passed down for thousands of years and cross checked and verified pure by the discovery of the 1900 year old Dead Sea Scrolls found in 1948. That find verified the validity of the text we use today.

    just disgusting – i threw her out of my private celebrity folder!!!!!!!!!

  • Sheila

    Have to say it again as it posted in an unreadable way…besides, this is not just for one person…seems as if there are many ignorant people out there fighting against spiriyual evolution…
    You are the MOST ignorant, uneducated, Neanderthal, troglodyte I have come across in a long time. Meat eaters and fur hags are VERY base and still living in primitive times. EVOLVE BEATCH! I have always been told – Never argue with an idiot; they’ll drag you down to their level then beat you with experience! But I cannot resist in telling you JUST how vile you and your VERY stupid, vile and vicious “argument” (I think that’s what it’s supposed to be) is…sorry if I use big words and names you don’t know.
    “Cruelty to animals is one of the most significant vices of A LOW AND IGNOBLE people.” Alexander von Humboldt You side with the baser elements; I will side with the intelligent, advanced minds and souls as: HIPPOCRATES- “The soul is the same in all living creatures, although the body of each is different.”-
    “When a man has pity on all living creatures then only is he noble.” – THE BUDDHA,
    “Of all the creatures, man is the most detestable. Of the entire brood, he is the only one that possesses malice. He is the only creature that inflicts pain for sport, knowing it to be pain. The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot.”–MARK TWAIN
    There is no better way to serve the Creator than to be kind to His creatures.” – ISAAC BASHEVIS SINGER
    and for all you bible a-wipes: Man must never hurt animals. Must never ill treat them, nor torture them physically, because they are sensitive creatures. If anyone told me that to achieve my purpose it would be sufficient to kill an ant, I would not do it. POPE JOHN XX111
    “The animals possess a soul and men must love and feel solidarity with our smaller brethren…All animals are fruit of the creative action of the Holy Spirit and merit respect and that they are as near to God as men are. Nature does not belong to the human race, but to God, its creator. God appointed us stewards of nature, so that we might respect it and thus discover the true basis of our own existence.” His Holiness POPE JOHN PAUL II
    “Animals are God’s creatures. He surrounds them with his providential care. By their mere existence they bless him and give him glory. Thus men owe them kindness. We should recall the gentleness with which saints like St. Francis of Assisi or St. Philip Neri treated animals. . . It is contrary to human dignity to cause animals to suffer or die needlessly.” POPE BENEDICT
    “For that which befalleth the sons of men, befalleth beasts…As one dieth so dieth the other. Yet they have all one breath. So that a man hath no pre-eminence over a beast.”— ECCLESIASTES 3:19
    “We can destroy animals more easily than they can destroy us – and that is the only basis to our claim to being superior.” – BERTRAND RUSSELL
    “One day the absurdity of the almost universal human belief in the slavery of other animals will be palpable. We shall then have discovered our souls and become worthier of sharing this planet with them.” MARTIN LUTHER KING
    “Killing animals for sport, for pleasure, furs, and food is a phenomenon which is at once disgusting & distressing. There is no justification for indulging in such acts of brutality.” THE DALAI LAMA OF TIBET
    Love animals: God has given them the rudiments of thoughts & joy untroubled. Do not trouble their joy. Do not deprive them of their happiness…do not work against God’s intent Man, do not pride yourself on your superiority to animals: they are without sin, & you, with your greatness, defile the earth by your appearance on it, & leave traces of your foulness after you” DOSTOYEVSKY….
    “It is not enough for us to just be kind to animals, we have a higher mission, we MUST be of SERVICE to them…Each creature is the outward sign of an equal soul, & should be respected as such. If you have men who will exclude any of God’s creatures from the shelter of compassion, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men” ST. FRANCIS
    “It ill becomes us to invoke in our daily prayers the blessings of God, The Compassionate, if we in turn will not practice the elementary compassion towards our fellow creatures…The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” GANDHI
    “I am in favor of animal rights as well as human rights. That is the way of the WHOLE human being…I care not much for a man’s religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.” – ABRAHAM LINCOLN
    “A THINKING man feels compelled to approach all life with the same reverence as he has for his own. Anyone who has accustomed himself to regard the life of any living creature as worthless is in danger of arriving also at the idea of worthless human lives.” ALBERT SCHWEITZER

    Kelis should know that everyone in the fur industry, including the customers, has blood on their hands as well, sometimes literally.

    There’s no denying the reality that meat eaters die from self-inflicted wounds. They lack self-control. They are addicted to eating animals.
    Omnivoires are junkies. Did you know that dairy products contain opioids? One source: The Journal of Science reports that “Morphine has been found in cow milk at concentrations of 200 to 500 nanograms per liter”. If you don’t believe me, just Google it. Milk/dairy products break down into a morphine derivitives.

    People who eat animals are usually fat. Even the people who are not fat have health problems from eating animals (cancer, heart problems, etc). Like addicts, corpse muchers are combative, angry, illogical and won’t go a day “without their drug” (a meal without meat?! oh no! there wouldn’t be enough protein! the hunger would be overwhelmingly unbearable!). These people are ready to die for their addiction to eating animal products and yet they remain largely oblivious to the looming danger (like an addict).
    The world WILL change eventually, likely not in our lifetimes, largely because humans are motivated by their own self-preservation. Remember that when confronting someone.

      Don’t be so stupid. You really think vegans are living forever? I don’t think so. Our bodies are designed for some meat consumption. I will agree its no where neer the level that people eat, and I don’t eat dairy personally, but you can not deny that we are meat eating animals. This will never change. We always have been and always will be. As for meat eaters always being fat… thats not true and you know it isnt so I wont go there.

      A vegan lifestyle is hardly a more healthy one. If it were the perfect lifestyle, you wouldn’t need to take extra vits/minerals etc.

      The world will never change into a vegan kingdom. It just wont happen. Meat eaters will always be the majority. As it stands the vegan population is less than 1%. I doubt it will get anywhere neer 51% at ANY time and become the majority.

    Public figures need to get more and more pressure from environmentalist. They must understand that it is not 1940 but 2010!

    Ecorazzi is the best channel ever to help raise environmental awareness

  • Sean

    Fur is Eco friendly. Do you know how much energy it takes to make faux fur? The chemicals they put into it? The distruction of habitat for it? A real mink coat will last a lifetime if cared for well. Crulety? How about you attack the child labour in the world, or go after the meat industry (more curelty in the meat industry than there ever will be in the fur industry).

    You guys need to read up on your facts because you have no clue. As for being racist… that just proves you have no argument anyway so have to result to insults.
