Gwyneth Paltrow is again on good terms with PETA, after the anti-fur organisation raised havoc over the actress for wearing fox fur in a Tod’s advertisement, reports UsMagazine.com.
When talking to PETA’s V.P., Dave Matthews, the actress explained, "It was a daylong photo shoot on a boat near Capri, and there were all sorts of poses with all kinds of clothes – none with fur. During one set-up, a stylist came up from behind and draped a stole around my shoulder. I didn’t pay much attention to it, and when I noticed it was fur, I assumed it was fake fur, but did not ask, so it’s my fault. I was very surprised when they ended up using that one shot out of hundreds for the centerpiece of the Tod’s ads. I know it’s not a great excuse, but I hope you and your members understand."
Kate Winslet was recently in a similar predicament, when she was seen in Vanity Fair wearing a fur throw, which she thought was fake.
