Eva Mendes Wants to Get Naked with Morrissey for PETA

December 17, 2008 · Print This Article

Actress Eva Mendes appeared in a ‘I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur’ ad for PETA last winter, and she’s eager to do it again – as long as Morrissey will do it with her.  Eva is apparently a big fan of the singer, who fronted The Smiths before embarking on a solo career in the ‘90s. Morrissey is a vocal animal rights activist and vegan and The Smiths album ‘Meat is Murder’ inspired thousands of mopey college kids around the globe to follow in his footsteps.

From Ecorazzi:

“I really want to do a PETA ad with Morrissey, I’d be happy to do it naked if need be,” she told the UK Sun. “I’ve done a lot of work with them and I know Morrissey is a big supported of PETA, so here’s hoping! Whether Morrissey would want to get naked with me is another question. Maybe he could come up with something more creative than out-and-out nudity.”

“When he sings it’s poetry in motion to me. It completely speaks to me. I love Morrissey, but I don’t think I’d want to marry him,” she added.

Sorry Eva, but um, somehow I don’t think you’re his type anyway.

You know, when I was in college, I was a huge fan of The Smiths and had the ‘Meat is Murder’ bumper sticker from PETA on my car. I can’t tell you how many times that bumper sticker got covered up, written on, smeared with dog shit and otherwise defaced. Then one time, I was going through the drive-thru at Burger King to get a veggie burger and a homeless dude that was standing by the window actually peed on it (the bumper sticker, not the veggie burger) and yelled ‘hypocrite’ at me. Turns out, people have strong reactions to the phrase ‘meat is murder’, especially when they think you’re about to eat some beef. Go figure.

    Alice, I don’t know about the rest of the country, but they have in the South for at least 7 years :D Morningstar Farms veggie burgers. Not half bad but still fast food.
