Uber-hot R&B star Beyonce Knowles is getting heat herself from anti-fur campaigners, who apparently are bombarding her fashion label, House Of Dereon, with hate mail.
Knowles apparently angered animal rights protesters with her label’s use of chinchilla, rabbit and mink fur.
A record company source tells British paper The Daily Express, “Activists have threatened to dump carcasses at our offices or Beyonce’s home.”
“We’ve had a huge amount of posts complaining. Our receptionists have taken some pretty unpleasant phone calls.”
The offices of Beyonce’s record label have also been flooded with mail from furious PETA cultists, incensed by the pink mink the star wore to the premiere of her new movie ‘The Pink Panther’.
A spokesperson for PETA defends the criticism of Beyonce: “She is profiting from the most violent and bloody industry on Earth and should be ashamed.”
The Pink Panther leaped to No. 1 at the box office, largely due to the presence of the long-legged beauty.
