PETA PUT FUR ON THE MENU FOR STUNNED BEYONCE BEYONCE KNOWLES and her mother were forced to flee a dinner fans won at an auction when the devotees turned out to be activists from People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals (PETA). The PETA pair, who won the chance to dine with Beyonce at a VH1 Save The Music auction, bombarded the pop diva with questions about her decisions to wear fur and include fur in her clothing line, House Of Dereon. And the onslaught didn't stop there as Beyonce and her mum sat awkwardly at New York's trendy Nobu 57 last night (15JUN06) - the unnamed PETA pair placed a portable DVD player and forced the Knowles girls to watch a video expose of the fur industry, narrated by PAMELA ANDERSON, featuring footage of animals who are trapped, drowned, and electrocuted for their pelts. Polite Beyonce and her mother quickly excused themselves and left the restaurant. PETA spokesman MICHAEL McGRAW says, "PETA has contacted Beyonce numerous times over the years, begging her to stop promoting the violence of the fur industry. "By wearing and designing fur, she is setting a terrible example for young women who look up to her and want to emulate her. She is promoting one of the most violent industries on the planet." McGraw hopes that Beyonce's awkward dinner date has made her think twice about using and wearing fur: "She must be truly heartless to be unmoved by the images of foxes being anally electrocuted and minks having their necks snapped."
