The mantle of the discord. For the organization of defenses of animals PETA, the garment snakeskin Céline Dion is not appropriate.

On June 28, at the exit of the paris hotel Royal Monceau, Celine Dion appeared to be wearing a long coat in python skin, a t-shirt printed with a tiger head and long suede boots. For the organization of animal rights PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), it is too much.

Contacted by the canadian newspaper The Sun, the association was informed by the voice of Lisa Lange, vice-president of PETA : “A coat in skin of snake is the death of many snakes, which they kill by nailing to trees or by pumping large quantities of water in the body, to loosen their skin before the skinning, often while they are still alive“. She continued : “Celine Dion has the world at your fingertips, and it would be so easy for her to show compassion for animals by wearing clothes with a fake snake, mock crocodile or any other option vegan chic.“

PETA has also indicated that he would contact the singer for the raise awareness of the plight of animals. Already, on the 27th of June, the organization had already passed a word to Céline Dion, but this time to congratulate her. Explanations of Katie Arth, assistant director of media relations at PETA : “We just send him a thank-you card to have worn a bib of faux leather and we will most probably discuss this issue with (the mantle of python) with it.“

In the past, PETA has already stepped out with Rihanna, Justin Bieber, or Eva Mendes to raise awareness of its cause.
