Anti-fur protestor Heather Mills McCartney is threatening to stalk actress
Jennifer Lopez. The wife of ex-Beatle Sir Paul McCartney has targeted
Ms Lopez because of the singer-actor’s love of fur. Ms Lopez often
attends movie premieres and awards shows wearing expensive fur coats.
She says she wants to be “educated” as to why she should not wear them.
She has angered animal rights activists for many years. They accuse her
of making fur fashionable. She has made it an attractive item for the
young and wealthy to want to buy.

Ms Lopez’s fashion company. Ms McCartney wanted to deliver a DVD
to Ms Lopez, which contained a documentary of how animals were
brutally killed or skinned alive for their fur. Ms McCartney had to replace
her artificial leg in a stairwell, as the guards refused her entry to a
restroom. She promised to continue her crusade against Ms Lopez, and to
“show up” at her home or “get a hold of her at her premieres”.
