After he heard about the deadly experiments that the University of Wisconsin–Madison is performing on cats, Randall made a video against it that is so convincing that it could make even the honey badger care. 

Randall's buddy Bret Lockett of the New York Jets gave animals an awesome shout-out, too, during an interview with Integral Yoga Magazine:

Bret would likely be pleased with Glamour UK's pick for the best-dressed celebrity: Fervently fur-free Kristen Stewart tops the magazine's list for the second year in a row.

And Perez Hilton graced us with a gallery of the best-undressed celebs: 30 of PETA's hottest nude anti-fur ads. 

In the same spirit, here's our gallery of the best celebrity tweets of the week:

Pamela Anderson probably gets asked out via Twitter and other means every day. But she's offering to take a certain fellow out to dinner. Who's the lucky guy? Philippine President Benigno Aquino III. Pam wants to talk to the bachelor president about helping to get Mali, the 39-year-old ailing elephant who is alone in the Manila Zoo, transferred to a sanctuary in Thailand.

Fellow screen icon and animal rights campaigner Brigitte Bardot is making another man an offer he shouldn't refuse. Brigitte joined PETA UK's campaign to get British retailer Fortnum & Mason to stop selling vile foie gras, with a letter to the store's managing director, Ewan Venters, that said, in part, "Tradition is never an excuse for animal cruelty." 

You would probably never catch Vanessa Hudgens eating foie gras, but you would catch her grabbing lunch at North Hollywood's Lotus Vegan restaurant.

Where else can you catch your favorite celebs? Tweeting with PETA. 

When former congress member Jesse Jackson Jr. and his wife pled guilty to using hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign funds to pay for personal items like fur coats and capes, elk heads, and taxidermied animals, it effectively put an end to what was once a promising career—not to mention dozens of animals' lives.

Now, in hopes of seeing some good come from this sad waste, PETA has asked the U.S. marshal to donate the furs to the homeless in Chicago instead of auctioning them off, as is reportedly planned.

Only people who are truly struggling to survive have any excuse for wearing fur. For every cuff, collar, piece of trim, or coat made from real fur, animals endured misery and died after being beaten, electrocuted, or even skinned alive. By donating the coats to the homeless, the U.S. marshal would underscore the importance of need over greed while giving back to the community in Illinois.

What You Can Do

We can't give these animals their lives back, but we can prevent more from being killed. Please go fur-free—and encourage others to do the same. 

At last night's Golden Globe Awards, the hot topic on the red carpet was the cold snap in L.A.: Temps had dropped to 37 degrees. But not one of the nominees (and no other celebrity we could find) wore fur. Hollywood has had quite the animal-friendly makeover over the past generation with PETA on the scene!

The majority of fur today comes from fur farms, where animals slowly go insane from the intense confinement. Many animals on fur farms circle frantically in their cages, a sign of severe psychological stress.

Not only was the glitzy event fur-free, it also showcased a few of today's most vibrant vegans! Jessica Chastain—PETA's reigning Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrity—and previous champ Anne Hathaway nabbed the top actress awards.

"I was definitely one of those people that wore fur," Evelyn Lozada admits. But the Basketball Wives star had a change of heart after seeing footage of how animals killed for their fur are beaten and skinned alive. 

"I was looking online, and I [saw] how these animals are tortured and skinned, and you don't really realize the hurt and the pain that they go through just for fashion. And I want to be a voice for them."

So Evelyn posed for a skintillating ad shot by top celebrity photographer Drexina Nelson for PETA, which she unveiled during the peak holiday shopping season to ask everyone to leave fur off their lists.

Now, as a proud card-carrying PETA member, Evelyn enjoys eating meat-free meals and advocating for animal rights.

She even turned her birthday party at Hollywood hot spot Supperclub into a release party for the ad, where all her friends and fans in attendance got an education about the cruelty of the fur trade.

"You can verbalize what happens to these animals a thousand times, but [when] you see it, it definitely clicks in—and it did for me," she said.

Has it clicked for you? Take PETA's pledge to be fur-free and help us show the fur industry that even former fur-wearers aren't buying it anymore.

Sure, during an election year, the candidates themselves take up residence under a microscope. But here's something that you might not have known about Democratic National Convention speakers Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama. 

You probably knew that Broccoli Bill went vegan, since he's fond of telling people how much better he looks and feels. And maybe you heard Wolf Blitzer report that Bill hadn't lost his pizzazz—he'd just lost his pizza! But did you know that he was PETA's Person of the Year in 2010?

Yep, the vegan in chief won for saving animals' lives and proving that even former hamburger fanatics can thrive on a vegan diet. As Bill himself wrote to PETA President Ingrid E. Newkirk, "I've been feeling great since I adopted my plant-based diet!"

Speaking of saving animals' lives, did you know that we have a FLOTUS who doesn't wear fur?

Michelle Obama's celebrated style always earns accolades from the fashion community and from people who care about animals.

Whether you're a donkey or an elephant, everyone can elect to help animals by not eating them or wearing them. 

P.S. Did you also know that Matthew Scully, vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan's speechwriter and the author of Dominion, is a vegetarian?

PETA promotes and educates the public on the benefits of a vegan diet. PETA does not directly or indirectly participate in any political campaign on behalf of or in opposition to any candidate for public office.

Tonight on The Real Housewives of Orange County, viewers will see Vicki Gunvalson in fur for the last time. When she received a mink coat as a gift on last week's episode, PETA immediately sent her our video exposé of the fur industry narrated by none other than fashion guru Tim Gunn. 

As soon as she saw that her coat was made of animals who had been beaten, electrocuted, or skinned alive, Gunvalson refused to wear fur again. In a statement to Bravo TV's The Dish, Gunvalson revealed:

Gunvalson joins a growing list of celebrities, including Sharon Osbourne, Bethenny Frankel, Lea Michele, Eva Mendes, Olivia Munn, Joanna Krupa, and others, who publicly shun fur.

Gunvalson asks any Real Housewives fans who are still harboring fur in their closets to join her in donating it to PETA. 

If you fashion junkies out there can't wait until the debut of Chrissie Hynde's new clothing line, you can get your fix on September 10, when the Kardashian family unveils its new K-Dash line at QVC's Fashion's Night Out event. The line, designed by Tommy Hilfiger's sister Ginny, will feature faux fur and pleather, as modeled by Kim Kardashian on People.com.

Of course, the paucity of pelts in the K-Dash line should come as no surprise after Khloe wore, ahem, no clothing line at all in this sexy ad for PETA:

We've sent a thank you to the K-ladies and to QVC (which has a no-fur policy). Need a reminder of why faux is the only way to go? This ought to do it.

We are not alone. No, I'm not talking about the existence of aliens. I'm referring to the existence of other passionate anti-fur advocates such as the South African organization Fur Free. The proof of this group's passion is in this winning poster from its recent anti-fur poster competition.

It's a powerful poster that's sure to compel people to hang up nasty old fur habits and pledge to purge their closets of animal pelts forever.
