Well this confirms my fears...Janet is an illuminati puppet...she has no choice in the matter..
I still don*t understand : why eat meat ? Maybe some will really think about it and realise !?
People can wear fake leather and fake fur. Why need to kill poor animals for it? I can understand why everyone can not become vegetarians but do they need to wear fur and leather? This is still such a big shame for Janet. I didn't like what she is doing and will never support her about this issue. I actually wrote to her how I feel about this issue.
Yes, we sure "project" our high expectations on every single Jackson, which is a big mistake maybe :roll:
One of Janet Jackson's longtime fans is so disgusted by the singer's decision to launch a fur line he's selling his memorabilia collection in protest.Animal lover Sean Oltersdorf of Michigan has teamed with animal rights activists at PETA to auction off 25 years' worth of Janet collectibles after learning Jackson has teamed up with fur company Blackglama and plans to release a new line of pelts later this year.He says, "I am a long-time Janet Jackson fan - or I should say I used to be. I am disgusted and have decided I want to auction off my entire 25 years-plus of Janet items and donate the proceeds to PETA."I have three rescued chinchillas and find Janet's decision reprehensible."Oltersdorf's collection, which includes posters, magazines, photos, vinyl and more, will be placed on eBay.com next week.Jackson's luxury mink collection, which features 15 items ranging from coats to gloves, is due to be released in high-end retailers later this month.Jackson came under fire from animal-rights campaigners last year after she modelled mink items in an ad campaign for the brand.

Would we please stop judging Janet here please???I really feel bad about this, not that I encourage the killing of the animals for their fur. I don't agree with this but I also don't like to see we judge her.
The shockingly sad truth is that one fur coat alone requires the lives of 40 minks, 40 foxes, and more than 100 chinchillas. Swallow that - this is just ONE coat.
The Janet Jackson fur controversyby Shannon BooneJanet Jackson is an American born singer and actress who has always prided herself on setting her own trends and doing what makes her happy rather than trying to appeal to the needs of others and their opinions. So, it really was not much of a surprise when she decided to participate in the BlackGlama fur advertisement knowing that her appearance could receive potential backlash.BlackGlama is a fashion brand specializing in Black mink products. As stated on BlackGlama’s website, BlackGlama is “World renowned for their unbridled luxury and elegance. BlackGlama products are created from the finest materials. Each BlackGlama skin is hand selected, with less than 2% of the world’s Black mink population being deemed worthy of the BlackGlama name.”Many people and groups have spoken out in disgust, against Janet Jackson’s participation in the BlackGlama fur advisement. Actress Pamela Anderson has even gotten in on the controversy, calling Janet Jackson “greedy” for taking a job promoting fur. She also stated, “It’s disappointing. She has spoken out against fur before. I don’t know why some people stop listening to their heart. I guess some people get greedy, but it’s sad.” Along with Pamela Anderson, PETA has also taken a stand against Janet Jackson and her participation in the ad campaign. PETA is an organization whose name stands for “People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals”. This non-profit organization employs roughly 300 people, but is supported by millions more. The intent of the group is to focus on four core issues, opposition to fur farming, factory farming, animal testing, and animals in entertainment. One of the things that PETA has done to grow awareness to its cause is its establishment of its own campaign. “I’d rather go naked than wear fur”. Countless celebrities have participated in this ad campaign such as Nia Long, Khloe Kardashian, and Eva Mendes. Recently, PETA’s Senior Vice President Dan Mathews issued a statement directed specifically towards Janet Jackson. “You and I spoke at length about the fur issue. You told me you were always aggravated at photo shoots when stylists would try to throw fur on you and that you were even wary of wearing fake fur out of concern that it might actually be real or look real in photos and sent ht wrong message. You were very straightforward and sensible about it. What happened?”To date, Janet Jackson has not commented on the “fur controversy”, and her BlackGlama ads are expected to appear in the September issues of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, W, and many other fashion magazines. The ad is also set to be displayed on a billboard in New York City’s Time Square.Copyright © 2002-2011 Helium, Inc. All rights reserved.
