Beyonce Praised By PETA

Newly wed Beyonce was sent a fake fur throw as a wedding present by animal rights group PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals).

A card accompanying the gift read "From all of us at PETA, we wish you much happiness in your life together. Please accept this faux-fur throw with many good wishes and a hope from us that together, you'll be a fur-free couple!".

Beyonce has previously been targeted by the group for frequently wearing real animal furs.

Last year PETA confronted the singer in a posh New York restaurant and attempted to make her watch a video of an animal being skinned for its fur.

PETA Vice President Lisa Lange said: "Celebrities know that the easiest way to keep PETA off their backs is by keeping fur off their backs. Time will tell if Beyonce is truly committed to being fur-free"
