This ain't the Middle Ages folks, there is absolutely no need for it.
And just because she has worked hard to get where she is doesn't justify it. I work hard too and I don't help skin animals alive.

I have to wonder of those who endorse Ms Lopez's right to wear fur, how would they feel if it was their dogs and cats who were being skinned alive for a trimming on some unattractive clothing?

What I find even more mystifying is who the hell is buying Lopez's ugly ass clothes anyway? I will never forgive her for reintroducing the velour tracksuit. Those nasty things don't look good on anybody, let alone overweight middle age women who still think they are hip by wearing something "J-Lo" had on last week.
AHEM. I resent the "overweight middle-aged" comment. I am heavy and in my mid-40's and I certainly wouldnt wear something only because it is trendy--especially JLO's line (I happen to abhor her "style") I choose my clothes for comfort and for coverage, as I suspect most heavy women do.
Its comments like yours that expose the pervasive prejudice against weight/age. One day, you too will be middle aged, possibly even overweight.
A little forebearance on your part wouldnt come amiss.

as for the fact that she uses fur, as I said before, most people DONT wear it any more and I predict that particular line wont do very well. I suspect that the few people that would buy fur probably wont like the reaction they will get from the rest of their friends etc...this whole phenomenon will probably become a non-issue in short order.
