The Celebrity Truth

Samantha Ronson has launched a scathing attack on PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), after an animal activist flour bombed Lindsay Lohan as they arrived at the VIP Room Theater in Paris on Saturday night (November 15).

“Whenever I feel the need to vent about something that feels unfair to me I reach for my computer,” Ronson wrote on her MySpace Sunday.  “I don’t run out of the house with abusive intentions… I don’t wear fur, but I don’t think I have the right to ATTACK those who do. No one has that right.”

The animal rights campaigner dropped a bag of flour over Lohan’s head shouting, “She is a fur hag, she wears furs,” before fleeing the venue.

“PETA should focus their efforts on educating people on what they believe are injustices instead of seeking press via harassing those in the limelight…” Ronson continued.  “I would have more respect for them if they didn’t use other people to get their point across. Lindsay, Mary Kate, Ashley Olsen, Anna Wintour and the rest of the targeted celebrities aren’t the problem, I’m pretty sure they’re not the only ones wearing fur, in fact, they should be appreciated by PETA for giving them a target. If it weren’t for them, who would get them press?????”

Ronson adds, “I think there are plenty of families that could have used that flour for a meal. nice job,lady.”

Robbie LeBlanc from PETA Europe addressed the attack in a statement saying, “Lindsay Lohan might be able to ignore images of bloody animals skinned alive for their pelts, but we hope a dash of flour will help her rise to the occasion and forsake fur once and for all.”
