Los Angeles: Anti-fur protesters disrupted Rihanna's new perfume launch event in Brooklyn, New York and verbally attacked the Diamonds hitmaker for wearing animal products.

Rihanna's fans had come to Macy's department store in Brooklyn, where a small group of protestors created a scene by parading around the shop, holding up posters with monikers like, "Who died for your coat?" and "Skinned alive", reported chron.com.
