Kanye West Slammed By Pink For Pro-Fur Stance

June 1, 2009
Kanye West Slammed By Pink For Pro-Fur StanceKanye West has been criticised by Pink for apparently voicing his support for clothing that is made from fur.

The singer said she was left angry by pro-fur comments the rapper made at a recent fashion show in Paris.

"The entire time Kanye is going, 'They need more fur in this show'. He just wouldn't shut up about how he loved fur," she told The Sun newspaper.

Pink claimed vegetarian Sir Paul McCartney and the vice-president of PETA were also been present when the rapper had made the comments.

“I was just so grossed out by him. I'm like, 'You're an idiot!'” she said. “There are so many people who I think are a waste of skin and he's up there.

"I should wear him. Go on, donate yourself, Kanye. People can wear your fur."

West attended Paris Fashion Week earlier this year to launch his new sneaker line for fashion house, Lous Vuitton.
