After watching a documentary revealing how fur wares are created, Taraji P. Henson decided to shed fur - and her clothes - altogether.
The actress recently joined celebs like Chad Ochocinco, Nia Long and Eva Mendes in PETA's "I'd rather go naked" anti-fur campaign and plans to unveil her ad in person at PETA'S New York Fashion Week party on February 10.
"Before I saw that documentary ... I would wear fur," explains Henson in an exclusive PETA interview. "But I saw this documentary, and I was riveted. I cried. I don't think a living being should suffer for the sake of fashion, period. You don't have to kill an animal just because you want to be hot and fly. And I really stand by that."
