PETA 30th Anniversary: Celebrities Baring It All For Animal Rights (PHOTOS)

On Saturday, animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) celebrated its 30th anniversary in Hollywood, California. Countless celebrities were in attendance for the gala, hosted by Alec Baldwin.

PETA, which claims to be the largest animal rights organization with more than 2 million members and supporters, was founded in 1980. In 1981, PETA embarked on a laborious legal struggle, the Silver Springs monkey case. The efforts resulted in the first arrest and criminal conviction of an animal experimenter in the United States, and the first confiscation of abused laboratory animals.

PETA's imagery is entirely fixated on barely dressed and naked women. It's cliched and lazy

okay, but in terms of media presence all I can say is that I've seen loads of the bare naked ladies, but I've not seen that one until today.

now retract the "entirely" :-)

Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner - that I moved to Nice.
