When Ri-Ri toned down her bright red locks, we thought that just for a second, she would have tamed her act and stayed on the good side of the press. But we were wrong. Very wrong. Except we don't know if Rihanna meant to ruffle these feathers the way she has. Let us explain:
Rihanna stepped out in a turquoise feathered top and matching Antonio Berardi trousers when she was in London's Oxford street promoting her perfume Reb'l Fleur. It wasn't provocative but it still offended people, because the top was made of Ostrich feathers, prompting animal rights group PETA to react.
Sandra Smiley, a spokesperson for PETA, told the Daily Star: "Rihanna is flaunting stolen property, in this case feathers possibly plucked right off their rightful owners' backs. We keep hoping that Rihanna, a victim of violence herself, will learn to open her heart and start empathising with the suffering of others. That includes the animals who are beaten, gassed, electrocuted and poisoned to be turned into fashion accessories."
Yikes. It's the age-old dilemma once again - what does everyone think?
