Ashley and her sister have been attacked by animal rights group PETA, in a campaign that launched last December. PETA claims the twins have "ignored pleas to stop wearing fur and using it in their fashion collection." PETA has dubbed the pair "the Trollson Twins" and "Hairy Kate and Trashly" in a stinging campaign. A poster, with the tag line "fur is worn by beautiful animals and ugly people," was unveiled at their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.
Will PETA's attack hurt Ashley's nice girl image? Millions of people wear fur and leather, why are the Olsen twins expected to stop wearing them? Does PETA have the right to target Ashley and MK directly, just because they are famous? PETA is trying to use the twins celebrity status to make a point, but do you really think this tactic will actually help their cause? PETA is framing Ashley Olsen as inhumane and a bad influence on society by flaunting her fur clothes in public, but is it her duty as a celebrity to set the example to not wear fur?
