Is PETA Allowed To Accept Money From The Sale Of Leather? Pam Anderson Thinks So
You gotta hand it to Pamela Anderson…she loves coming up with new ways to benefit her favorite charity, PETA. Her latest endeavor involves selling her expensive and luxurious Dodge Viper, outfitted with a 400 HP 8.0L V-10 engine, convertible top, pinstripes, luxurious leather interior…wait, what?
You now have the chance to own Pamela’s black and white Dodge Viper, which is equipped with a 450-horsepower 8.0L V-10 engine, 6-speed manual transmission and multi-point fuel injection system capable of 0 to 60 in 4 seconds with a top speed of over 190 MPH. The soft-top convertible roof, luxurious leather interior, front spoiler and racing pin stripes make this car look sexy, even if you don’t. She is loaded out with remote control anti-theft protection, 5-speaker Alpine stereo system, air conditioning, full dashboard and floor center console with sport seats and head restraints, remote power locks, power windows, power steering and just for the boys, a cigar lighter. Gently used with only 14,000 approximate miles, you can’t go wrong getting behind the wheel of this sure-to-be-a-classic automobile.
Well, now. Isn’t that nice. Pamela can ride around on the hide of dead cows, while at the same time espousing PETA as her “ethical advisers”. And lest you think the toy was just an expensive knickknack given to Pam and never used, feast your eyes on this:
The 40-year-old actress recently held a private estate sale to benefit the animal organization, and she’s planning to personally oversee the sale of her 2000 Viper, which she customized herself with white racing stripes. The car plays a prominent role in Anderson’s forthcoming E! series, “Pam: Girl on the Loose,” but she admitted it was dangerous for her to own such a high-performance vehicle.
“I’m a terrible driver,” she said. “It’s just not a good idea for me to have a Viper.”
Yet another E! reality show. At least she can be with such exalated company as Denise Richards and Dina Lohan.
We certainly don’t want Pammy to do anything that might hurt an animal, like wearing a leather corset or serve tuna or wear Uggs or inject and ornament herself with (possibly) animal-tested products. Because that might be, you know, mean and stuff.
Did you catch that she’s donating “a portion” of the proceeds to PETA? Wonder just how big that portion is? And should PETA accept any portion of the sale, since she’s profiting them by selling the hide of dead animals?
You can catch GlossLip’s glorious lovefest of all things Pammy here. Does she really think we don’t research this stuff?

Dangitol, I honestly forgot. My sincerest apologies.
I blame the fact that I got two hours sleep last night and have been up since 5:30 this morning…and am still up. Somebody send me to bed!

Wow – this is almost better than the time PA was shocked SHOCKED to find out that her beloved lambskin Uggs were, uh, made of the skin of lambs that had been, you know, skinned.
Later she discovered that there was actually no such thing as cruelty free veal gathered via donations from charitable baby cows.

Pammy’s not the brightest crayon in the box.

I’m pretty sure I read about that car being specially manufactured for her with non-leather alternatives, so you might want to look into that before you go making claims like this.

Read the auction notice at http://deceiver.com/2008/06/09/pam-andersons-leather-seats-to-benefit-peta/ … It says the car has a “luxurious leather interior.”
FAIL.

Sweet mother of mercy, and people think bloggers are just a bunch of amateurs writing about “stuff” on the internet in their pajamas.
New media keeping the rich and famous on their toes.
Nice job k and the peeps at Deceiver.

Look, if you don’t believe Deceiver, and you don’t believe me, then believe the auction people, who put out the description.
Deciever and I both posted the link, but I’ll post it again just so you won’t have to spend your valuable time looking for it.
The interior of the car is leather. The jury is still out as to the interior of Pam’s head.
