Natalie Imbruglia speaks otu against fur in new PETA video

Singer and actor Natalie Imbruglia has taken time out from her busy schedule judging The X Factor to narrate an anti-fur video for PETA Asia. "There is no kind way to rip the skin off animals' backs," says Imbruglia. "Anyone who wears any fur shares the blame for the torture and gruesome deaths of millions of animals each year."


"This Is Fur" Narrated by Natalie Imbruglia

Nearly 74 percent of Australia's fur is imported from China—the  world's leading fur exporter—where millions of dogs and cats are killed  for the international fur trade. The fur is often processed and  relabeled in other countries, making it impossible to tell where—or  which species—it came from. Animals on fur farms in China are commonly  skinned alive. Fur farms elsewhere are no better: Animals are forced to  live in filthy, cramped cages before they are killed by gassing, anal  electrocution, or neck-breaking.
Many of the world's most stylish celebrities, including Eva Mendes,  Kate Winslet, Kelly Osbourne, Charlize Theron, Pamela Anderson, and  Natalie Portman, shun fur. And some of the world's most renowned fashion  designers, such as Vivienne Westwood, Peter Morrissey, Alannah Hill,  Gail Elliott, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, and Stella McCartney, never use fur in their designs.


What You Can Do: Sign the Pledge to Go Fur-Free


Join Natalie Imbruglia in fighting the cruel fur trade and  helping the millions of animals worldwide who are beaten, electrocuted,  and hanged for their fur. Sign the pledge today, and don't forget to encourage your friends and family members to do the same.

Windswept on Wall St

Abbey Lee features in Alexander Wang's debut video ad campaign to launch his Wall St inspired FALL 2010 collection.

"It's abstracted. Abbey's not walking down Wall Street past buildings, but there's wind and newspapers flying all over the place. It's very moody and seductive — like looking at a perfume ad where you feel for the girl a lot more. Rather than saying, 'Here's the product,' this is more about expressing ourselves."

"Model/Hairdresser, Chris Hunter at Valonz is a watch freak and has hundreds in his collection. So it was only apt that he should be at the Chanel J12 Marine launch. His style is a little rock’n'roll under that black jacket/pant uniform every male in Sydney is wearing. Love the shoes."
