Veena Malik goes Veg

Drama Queen Rakhi Sawant put her histrionics to good use in this campaign for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. The ad aims at ending the use of animals in circuses and has a bikini-clad Rakhi painted in tiger stripes, wielding a whip.

Pakistani actress Veena Malik looks ravishing in a seductive blouse and poses next to the words "I Am Veena Malik, and I Am a Vegetarian", in a brand-new ad for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India to be released in October, which is celebrated as Vegetarian Awareness Month around the world.

Coming Up: Celebs pose for a cause.

PETA had previously roped in Malaika Arora Khan to front the campaign against using wild birds in circuses. Malaika showed a good amount of cleavage and skin in a white Wendell Rodricks outfit depicting a macaw.

If there's skin to show, can John Abraham be far behind? If you can look away from John's bare chest, you'll notice there are birds soaring in the sky behind him.

Here's Sherlyn Chopra doing what she does best. Not sure if you got the message here – Whips and Chains Belong in the Bedroom and not in the Circus – but PETA certainly got the attention it was looking for.

Step Up star Jenna Dewan also took off her clothes for a PETA campaign against leather. Painted to look like snakeskin, the wife of G.I Joe star Channing Tatum said she couldn't believe that was what happened to make a wallet or a purse.

Nargise Bagheri does a Lady Godiva in this PETA campaign against the use of draught horses. The actress, who debuted in Garam Masala with Akshay Kumar, is naked on a fake horse with only her long hair to cover her modesty.

Some more Sherlyn. The actress claims her love for animals is real. She says that she would never buy or wear fur herself as it's not fashionable wearing an animal's skin as clothing.

Bollywood beauty Celina Jaitly helps raise awareness about abuse of captive elephants, an issue close to her heart. In this Rakesh Shrestha shot campaign, a chained Celina takes the place of the elephant to show how they suffer in captivity. "After coming to Mumbai and visiting other parts of India, I have seen so many elephants who are kept in such bad conditions in captivity. I think PETA has taken a very good step, and I am proud to be associated with this cause...I know my fans will also support me in this cause", Celina said.

Joanna Krupa: Celebrities are not shy of putting their million dollar bodies to good use. Stunning Polish model and 'Dancing with the Stars' alum Joanna Krupa recently took her clothes off for PETA's 'Be an Angel for Animals' campaign.

The ad reveals how people can their earn wings on earth-by deciding to adopt pets from shelters, rather than buy them from pet stores or animal breeders. A racier version of the ad which shows Krupa with a strategically placed cross against a church-like background however has not gone down well.

The Catholic League was prompt in denouncing PETA's use of religious imagery to make a point: "Pet stores don't rip off Christian iconography and engage in cheap irreligious claims."

Joanna is refusing to back down. "You know, we're trying to spread the word that breeding isn't the way to go," Joanna said in an interview with PETA. "Somebody needs to put their foot down and stop this breeding and these puppy mills...It makes me so angry that our government doesn't do anything about it. So I am!"

Christian Serratos: As one of the stars of the Twilight Saga, Christian Serratos is used to working with vampires and the nonliving-but she would never wear anything dead. Christian stripped down for PETA in the name of animals and told her fans, "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur."

Christian, who also posed for PETA's 'Save the Seals' celebrity ad series, said, "I've always been opposed to slaughtering, eating, wearing carcass." (Source: PETA release)

Kim Zolciak: 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Kim Zolciak joined a galaxy of stars for the the NOH8 Campaign. She posed topless to champion a marriage equality campaign protesting Proposition 8, California's constitutional ban against same-sex unions.

"The NOH8 campaign shoot was hot. and I am topless!!! Just to cause a stir to make people pay attention!" the 'Tardy for the Party' singer tweeted.

Karina Smirnoff: 'Dancing With the Stars' beauty Karina Smirnoff wants all her fans to know that there's nothing sexy about wearing fur. In fact, she'd rather dance naked, which is exactly what she does in her racy PETA ad.

A reformed fur-wearer, Karina says she stopped wearing fur after learning about what happens to animals who are killed for their skins. "I did wear fur, especially when I was little. But there are ways of being warm and being fashionable without being cruel." (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: (retouched) PETA)

Nia Long: Proving that she's oh-so-comfortable in her own skin, the stunning star of 'Big Momma's House' and 'Are We There Yet?' bared it all on the subway for PETA's 'Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' ad.

"When I became a mother, I started to really understand the importance of all living creatures in a way that I didn't ever think about before. And I've realized how important it is that we really take responsibility for...treating animals with love and care just like we would any human being. There's no difference, in my opinion, [between fur and] slavery or the Holocaust.

It's just that we're not dealing with human beings, we're dealing with animals, but it's still a living thing," she was quoted as saying.

Layla Kayleigh: The sexy cohost of MTV's 'America's Best Dance Crew' feels so strongly about stopping product tests on animals that she posed for PETA's first-ever 'Animal Testing Breaks Hearts' ad.

According to Layla: "I don't think people are purposely buying cosmetics and household products that are tested on animals. I just don't think they think twice....It really takes such a small thing to make such big impact, you know, and I feel like the more people get involved, the more it can make a difference."

Alicia Silverstone: Hollywood star Alicia Silverstone bared all in PETA's first-ever naked veggie testimonial.

"Like most people, I wasn't always a vegetarian, but I've always loved animals. If you ever have a chance to meet a cow, pig, turkey, or goat, you will see that they are just as cute and funny as your dogs and cats and that they, too, want to live and feel love. They don't like pain. Now when I see a steak, it makes me feel sad and sick because right away, I see my dog or the amazing cows I met at a sanctuary. I've been vegan for 10 years, and it's the single-most important and helpful decision I have ever made. Physically, the effect has been amazing. Once I went vegan, I lost the weight I wanted to lose, my nails were stronger, and my skin was glowing. I feel great, and I look better now than I did 11 years ago," she said in her mesasage to PETA.

Jenna Jameson: Glam gal Jenna Jameson knows the importance of birth control - animal birth control (ABC), that is. That's why she posed nude alongside the tagline 'Sometimes Too Much Sex Can Be a Bad Thing' in PETA's ABC ad.

"Until dogs and cats can go on the pill or wear condoms, we need to help them practice safe sex-by spaying and neutering," Jenna said. "Millions of homeless animals are turned in to shelters every year because there simply aren't enough good homes for them all. The answer is as easy as ABC: Animal Birth Control, which means get your Fido or Fluffy fixed!" (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Maggie Q: Fresh off her roles in 'Live Free or Die Hard' and 'Mission: Impossible III' (alongside Tom Cruise), rising star Maggie Q can only be described as hot. So it's fitting that for her latest "role," Maggie posed nearly nude in a bed of crimson chili peppers to spread the word that going vegetarian is the best way to "spice up your life" as well as help animals, your health, and the environment.

Maggie also stars in a second ad for PETA Asia-Pacific wearing a sexy bikini made entirely of strategically placed lettuce leaves next to the tagline "Turn Over a New Leaf - Try Vegetarian!" A vegetarian for many years, Maggie says that giving meat the boot is one of the most rewarding decisions she has ever made. "I feel better, I have more energy on and off the set, and I have the satisfaction of knowing that I'm doing something to help stop animal suffering." (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Holly Madison: Playboy model Holly Madison, star of 'The Girls Next Door', is so passionate about saving animals killed for their fur that she posed naked for not one, but two new PETA anti-fur ads! After the 'I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' ad, Holly shot for another provocative PETA campaign, declaring: "I Always Fake It-I'd Never Wear Real Fur." According to Madison: "You don't need fur. And if you want the look of fur...there's faux fur. There is just no reason for it." (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Nicollette Sheridan: 'Desperate Housewives' star Nicolette Sheridan stripped naked for a London Fog charity campaign alongside her singer fiance Michael Bolton.

Khloe Kardashian: Gorgeous reality TV star Khloe Kardashian lived up to her outspoken image on 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' by posing in the buff for PETA's anti-fur campaign. The self-proclaimed animal lover admitted that she had no idea what happened to animals killed for their fur until a few of PETA's videos opened up her eyes.

"The videos are so graphic but they are so necessary for people to watch. I'm so grateful that I did get the opportunity to see them. I had no idea that's how these animals are treated." Khloe said she agreed to pose naked because she wants people to know that she is serious about the fur campaign and that she wanted to do her part. (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Charlotte Ross: ABC's NYPD Blue took viewers' pulses on a high-speed race when it aired a steamy scene showing David Caruso's bare backside … and then came Dennis Franz. Another cast member also cast aside her inhibitions, but for a cause.

Charlotte Ross, who plays unshakable Detective Connie McDowell on the celebrated series, joined a long line of famous faces-and bodies-to bare it all for animals.

Ross lost her uniform for PETA's 'Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' series, replacing her badge with one, carefully positioned, white rabbit. The two-time Emmy-nominated actor created an arresting image with an enticing message: "I'd rather show my buns than wear fur." The full-page ad was shot by photographer Robert Sebree in Los Angeles.

"In my TV job as a police detective, I have to deal with some pretty cold-hearted characters," said Ross. "But I can't think of anything more heartless than to torment and kill animals in the name of fashion." (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: (composite) PETA)

Winona Ryder, Naomi Campbell, Victoria Beckham and others: Designer Marc Jacobs got celebrities like Victoria Beckham Heidi Klum, Eva Mendes, Dita Von Teese, Naomi Campbell, Helena Christensen, Joss Stone and Winona Ryder to drop their clothes to help him promote skin cancer awareness.

"Since we moved to California I have realized how important it is to practise safe sun for myself and to keep my three boys' skin well protected as well. Skin cancer is a huge problem and I really wanted to help raise awareness by taking part in Marc's initiative," Victoria was quoted as saying.

Sophie Monk: Australian singer, actress, and long-time vegetarian Sophie Monk is as compassionate as she is beautiful, which is why she jumped at the chance to star in this beautiful ad promoting vegetarianism. Sophie is super hot, and not just because she's lying on a bed of chili peppers.

She has starred in films like 'Date Movie', 'Click' and 'Scary Movie 5'. She also had a guest spot on 'Entourage'. (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Danity Kane: Danity Kane, comprising members Aubrey O'Day, Wanita "D. Woods" Woodgette, Shannon Bex, Dawn Richard, and Aundrea Fimbres, was well on its way to becoming the next female supergroup before Richard confirmed to MTV.com in an interview in October 2009 that Danity Kane were no longer a group.

But the five original members of the group are seen together in this anti-fur campaign for PETA. The pop sensations shed their clothes and posed in the buff for PETA's sexy anti-fur PSA, urging their fans and everyone else to "be comfortable in your own skin and let animals keep theirs." Danity Kane bared all because they wanted everyone to know there's nothing glamorous or beautiful about wearing fur.

"Any time we would see people wear it we'd be like, 'Gosh why'd they wear that? That's so sad. That was a living animal at one point,'" Aundrea told PETA.(Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Sian Murphy and Royal Opera Carmen Dancers: It was a first for the rareified world of Britian's Royal Opera House. Some of the institution's star performers shed their clothes for a racy charity calendar.

The models for the project to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support included both male and female artists, alongwith some support staff. Royal Ballet Dancer Sian Murphy, 30, photographed in one of the boxes at Covent Garden wearing nothing but diamonds, dedicated her presence in the calendar to her father, who was diagnosed with cancer but survived.

Joanna Krupa: Supermodel Krupa, who is currently in the eye of a storm for her new PETA 'Be an Angel for Animals' ad, has posed naked for the animal rights group in the past too.

The Polish-born beauty, who has graced the covers of many magazines—including Playboy, Maxim, FHM, and Stuff—laid her convictions bare, so to speak, by baring all in PETA's raciest 'I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' ad. And to top it off, she posed in not one but three versions of the sexy ad! (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Amanda Beard: Swimmer Amanda Beard might be the sexiest and most compassionate American Olympic athlete of all time. Need proof? Check out the anti-fur ad that she did—naked—for PETA. Even with her busy and demanding training schedule, Amanda took the time to bare her skin to help save animals' skins. With the tagline "Be Comfortable in Your Own Skin. Don't Wear Fur," Amanda posed nude to help raise awareness of the cruelty inherent in the fur industry. Amanda launched this ad right before the start of the 2008 Beijing Olympic games. "I have seen a lot of the videos, and [it] brings me to tears," Amanda said. "What [some people] think is pretty is actually something that's very gruesome and gross." (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Sarah Michelle Gellar: Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar, who usually has a non-nudity clause built into all her film contracts, decided to make an exception for charity.

The revealing shots for Vaseline showed Gellar as never before. All proceeds from the auction these photos would go to the Coalition of Skin Diseases, a charity promoting awareness about skin protection.

According to Sarah: "Where I am, in New York, I think people forget because people think that if it is raining and snowing that you don't have to protect your skin. I mean, my goodness, it is our biggest organ - it is our outlet to the world."

Eva Mendes: Eva Mendes — the gorgeous star of 'Training Day', 'Hitch', 'Once Upon a Time in Mexico', 'Ghost Rider', and the brilliant 'We Own the Night featuring' Mark Wahlberg and Joaquin Phoenix — is also the face PETA's winter anti-fur campaign.

"Some people still see wearing fur as glamorous and a sign of prosperity. Personally I think wearing a baby chinchilla says, "I'm ignorant," vs. saying "I'm a badass." I don't think you can force people to change their attitudes, but you can help to educate them and to lead by example. … There are way too many amazing faux fur options out there for people to still be wearing real fur. I want people to know that there are options; that killing a poor animal and wearing it isn't cool. But respecting all life forms is cool. Very cool," Mendes told PETA in an interview.

Dennis Rodman: Rodman is the first man—and the first sports star—to pose for PETA's 'Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' series, which has featured Pamela Anderson, Kim Basinger, and Christy Turlington.

When the 6'8" basketball legend, whose own 'Dennis Rodman Foundation' helps the homeless, heard about PETA's program that donates thousands of castoff fur coats to homeless shelters across the country, he instantly agreed to pose for the cause, explaining that furriers have pushed free furs on him over the years and he's always refused to take them — he only wears fake fur.

Kristen Johnston: In a sexy homage to Lady Godiva, Kristen Johnston bared all as part of PETA's campaign against horse-drawn carriages in New York City.

Posing nude on top of a prop horse, the Emmy Award–winning actor appeared beside the tagline 'Don't Get Taken for a Ride. Horse-Drawn Carriages Are Cruel' in PETA's provocative ad. Kristen was inspired to get involved with PETA's campaign after attending a New York screening of the movie 'Blinders'.

"Well, my friend Jackie saw the movie 'Blinders' and was really affected by it. She's one of my best friends, and she asked me to come to the New York premiere. And I went, and I was blown away by the story and how these horses live—or actually, I should say, don't live," she told PETA. (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Keeley Hazell: Sexy pin-up model Keeley Hazell quickly became an international hit with her beautiful figure and racy photo shoots.

The Brit then stole hearts with her gorgeous anti-fur ads for PETA. Keeley is a strong believer that fur belongs on the backs of animals and that we should all feel comfortable in our own skin and let animals keep theirs.

"Once you learn how the fur trade treats animals, it's impossible to think of wearing fur as sexy or glamorous. I believe that killing animals for vanity is wrong," she was quoted as saying. (Source: PETA release, Photo courtesy: PETA)

Pamela Anderson: 'Baywatch'bombshell Anderson is a vegetarian, an advocate for animal rights, and an active member of PETA, taking part in several campaigns for animal rights. One of Anderson's campaigns as a member of PETA has been against the use of fur.

"It amazes me that some designers still turn animals into fashion victims. I've written to them all to say, "Foxes and chinchillas are anally electrocuted, beavers are drowned in underwater traps, and minks are injected with weed killer or have their necks broken, all for a tacky coat that makes women look like Bigfoot! Why?" she said in an interview.

Pamela Anderson: Pam, as she is affectionately called, has also appeared in a leafy bikini top and G-string, asking people to 'Turn Over A New Leaf. Try Vegetarian'. "I've found that going vegetarian is the best – and easiest – method of staying slim and sexy. Why go vegetarian? With so many great reasons, I think a better question is, 'Why not?'", said the actor and pin-up queen, who has been a vegetarian since she was sixteen.

Imogen Bailey: Bailey acquired a pair of wings to match her angelic good looks! 'The Neighbours' star posed in PETA's anti-fur ad. In the ad, scantily clad in white, Imogen proudly shows off a pair of angel's wings next to the tagline 'Earn Your Wings. Don't Wear Fur'.

The Australian model and actor is no stranger to PETA. Her previous efforts for PETA affiliates worldwide include ads protesting against the Bull Riding World Cup and the use of bear fur for the Queen's Guards' caps.

Lucy Davis: Lucy Davis, the star of 'The Office' and 'Studio 60', featured in a naked ad urging Britain's Ministry of Defense to stop using bear skins for the traditional caps the Queen's Guards wear.

Here's what Davis had to say about it, "So much money is spent, and so much cruelty is spent, on what at the end of the day is a hat—and that is it. Not only was I horrified to find that it was one bear to make one hat, but also it's not really just one bear—in a way it can be one whole family....That whole family dies, and again, it's just for a hat."

Sadie Frost: Actress and 'fur-free' fashion designer Sadie Frost shot for a nude portrait as part of PETA's anti-fur campaign. It was photographed by rock legend and fellow vegetarian Bryan Adams.

The strapline for the campaign is 'Turn your back on fur'. Frost reportedly worked out for six months before the photo shoot to be in the best shape possible. "Peta's anti-fur campaign is basically about turning your back on fur. Through doing the naked photo, people will hopefully stop and look at the campaign," the star was quoted as saying.

Commenting on the photo shoot, Frost said, "I was definitely a bit nervous on the day but if you are around people you trust it's nice. It's also a nice thing for every woman to have and it's something they should have done at some time in their life."

Traci Bingham: Traci Bingham isn't shy about revealing body parts — but she draws the line at eating them. The curvaceous vegetarian actor, known to TV viewers from her appearances on 'Baywatch', Comedy Central's 'Strip Mall' and a host of various shows on BET and MTV, traded in her bathing suit for her birthday suit in a PETA ad that encourages people to view animals as more than walking entrées.

"By exposing myself, I hope to expose others to the many benefits of a vegetarian diet", said Bingham while talking about the racy ad shot by Robert Sebree in Hollywood.

Natasja Vermeer: International top model Natasja Vermeer has strutted on runways in New York, Paris, and Milan and graced the cover of magazines around the world.

She also stripped down and posed nude to help animals for PETA's infamous naked anti-fur ad series. "I have never worn or modeled fur in my life. I have always made it very clear in my career that I am against it. One time, though, I showed up for my fitting with a big designer in Paris to find out there was fur in the collection. I told them I would not take the job because I am against fur. They wanted to have me do the job and no one else, so they replaced everything with fake fur (I can always tell the difference when I feel it). And of course, I've declined some work sometimes as well...I think these celebrities (who wear fur) are either ignorant or selfish. I do think the unawareness of the people is many times the reason why cruelty or destruction in the world continues, but I would hope the young celebrities of today know the cruelty behind manufacturing fur. If they can still wear it after having this knowledge, then they are just plain selfish and cruel. To have these animals suffer in such a way for the sake of their vanity is too much for me to believe and makes me sick. I have absolutely no respect for them," she was quoted as saying in an interview.

Annalise Braakensiek: In the PETA ad, Australian model and actor Annalise Braakensiek is seen lying nude and cuddling a rescued lamb alongside the tagline 'The Naked Truth: Lambs Suffer and Die in Live Export.' "I'll gladly shed my clothes if it will help shed light on the cruelty of live sheep exports," said Annalise, who is perennially named as one of the sexiest women in the world.

"I urge Australia to heed the call of thousands of people around the world by banning live exports." Annalise has appeared in three films and on more than a dozen TV shows in Australia and the UK. She has graced the covers of several of the world's leading women's magazines and has been featured in Rolling Stone, Australian Style, GQ, Marie Claire, and Vogue, among others.

Alicia Mayer: Whether posing in plastic wrap that says, "No one wants to be treated like a piece of meat," or holding a limp banana next to the tagline "Eating Meat Got You Down? Get It Up. Go Vegetarian," Filipina Alicia Mayer has got what it takes: compassion for animals.

"I want to be able to help stop animal cruelty," said the supermodel, FHM cover girl, and star of 'Eat Bulaga' and 'Muli'. She believes that the easiest way to do that is to go vegetarian. "With so many delicious alternatives now available, it's easier than ever to enjoy great food without causing animal suffering," she added.

Dita Von Teese: Dita Von Teese is the definition of sexy. She is a spokesmodel for the MAC Cosmetics Viva Glam campaign and the face of the holiday catalog for Frederick's of Hollywood, performs live burlesque shows, and has graced the cover of magazines around the world, including Playboy, Elle, and Harper's Bazaar. Dita chose to combine her sex appeal with her compassion for animals to launch PETA's ABC campaign.

ABC or Animal birth control tackles the issue of companion animal overpopulation and urges people to do their part by taking simple steps to help end this crisis.

Christina Applegate: Christina Applegate posed nude for PETA in a bid to stop shoppers from buying fur on Christmas. She told People magazine: "My house has been basically a zoo since I was a kid. Everything I wear has dog hair all over it, and that's just the way it is!" The 35-year-old actress also said she decided to become a vegetarian while on the set of her TV sitcom, 'Married With Children', when she was a teenager. "I realized I can't eat something that has been alive. So I stopped, and that was it. That was the last time," she was quoted as saying.

Sarah Jane: Covered only by her long blonde hair and a strategic pose and holding two small chicks, Australian model Sarah Jane — the 'World's Most Downloaded Woman' — appeared in an eye-catching PETA ad urging people to boycott KFC until it stops crippling chickens and scalding them to death.

Jane told newspapers, "I hope that, no matter how you feel about eating meat, you will agree with me that animals raised for food should not be grossly mistreated. Chickens raised for meat are commonly crammed by the tens of thousands into filthy warehouses with no access to fresh air or sunlight...I will feel satisfied if this campaign can shock, confront and awaken people globally and make known the suffering of chickens at the hands of KFC. I urge everyone not to set foot in another KFC restaurants until the company ends its chickens."

Lisa B: Former international model Lisa B featured in a hard-hitting PETA ad, that shows her naked body covered in what appear to be snake scales and lying in a pool of fake blood along with the tagline 'Wearing Exotic Skins Kills'. Shot by renowned photographer Trevor Leighton, PETA aims to let people know that every bag, shoe or jacket made from exotic skins comes with a high price – and it's paid for by animals who are ripped from their jungle homes and cruelly killed.

"Fashion is supposed to be fun. But there's nothing amusing about the hideously cruel ways in which exotic animals are killed for the fashion industry. Even if you don't think snakes or crocodiles are cute and cuddly, try to remember that they feel pain just like any other animal," Lisa said in an interview.

Roselyn Sanchez: Sexy starlet Roselyn Sanchez investigates crimes on CBS' hit drama 'Without a Trace', and in real life, she would never commit the biggest fashion crime of all—wearing fur! After learning about the horrors of the fur industry, Roselyn jumped at the chance to be the first Latina to pose nude for PETA's 'I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' campaign.

The ad was shot by ace photographer Robert Sebree, who has also snapped Joanna Krupa, Christina Applegate, Goran Visnjic, and Nicholas Gonzalez for PETA's anti-fur effort. Sanchez, a bilingual beauty from San Juan, Puerto Rico, decided to show her skin to save animals' skins after seeing what happens to animals in the fur industry.

"There are places in the world [where people] grow animals for the purpose of killing them to be able to get the skin and the coat," Sanchez explained. "[The animals] are electrocuted, they drown them, they suffocate them; it's insanity what they do to these animals....For human beings to take the liberty of just killing something to look pretty is insane," she was quoted as saying.

Tamara Ecclestone: Tamara Ecclestone — the beautiful Sky Sports TV presenter and daughter of Formula One magnate Bernie Ecclestone — isn't shy when it comes to blasting the cruel fur trade.

Draped only in the famous F1 chequered flag, she joined other well-known figures who have posed for PETA Europe's iconic anti-fur ad series.

Tamara's unique message is 'Going Fur-Free Is the Winning Formula'. Tamara explained on the day of the shoot, "I just think it's terrible to harm living animals all in the name of vanity. I think it's completely unnecessary, and I think that once you've seen the ways in which lots of these animals are killed and how brutal and grotesque and unnecessary it is, I think that people would automatically choose not to wear fur".

Audrina Patridge: Audrina Patridge spends her time onscreen juggling work, relationships, and the drama of life in 'The Hills', but off-screen, she spends her time being an 'Angel for Animals'.

The girl that Maxim magazine dubbed 'Queen of The Hills' joined with PETA to pose in an ad (with rescued pooch Speedy Gonzalez) that says, 'Be an Angel for Animals'.

During the photo shoot, Audrina said, "I wanted to get involved with PETA because I've always been passionate about animals, and I think this is a great way to make people and all my fans aware of all the animals that need a home. And a lot of people go to pet stores and breeders to buy their animals, but you should adopt, so go to an animal shelter and rescue a dog."

Miranda Kerr: Actress Miranda Kerr bared all for the July 2009 cover of Australian Rolling Stone's Green Issue. Collaborating with the iconic magazine to bring this visually arresting cover image to life, Miranda wanted to shine a light on the Koala Foundation's 'No Tree, No Me' campaign.

The Green Issue was a world first for Rolling Stone, highlighting the huge groundswell of Aussie interest in positive environmental change. Miranda heads up a feature inside this special Green Issue that tips its hat to Aussies who are drawing attention to environmental causes.

While Miranda is not the first non-musician to grace the cover of Rolling Stone, she's part of a pretty exclusive club that includes the likes of Barack Obama, The Chaser and Andrew Denton. "Oh it's incredible. It's really surreal to be on the cover," said Miranda, "Rolling Stone is such an iconic magazine. You know that song [sings], 'On the cover of the Rolling Stone' – that's just so cool and I'm really happy to be involved in this!" (Text: IMG Models Blog, Picture Courtesy: Rolling Stones)

Natalie Imbruglia: What's the difference between a full-length fur coat and just a little fur trim? Nothing, says famed Australian singer, actor, and model Natalie Imbruglia, who took time out of her busy schedule to pose for a sexy anti-fur ad for PETA.

In the ad, Imbruglia is holding a rabbit to her naked chest next to the tagline 'Tell Him It's Just a Little Fur Trim'. "There is no kind way to rip the skin off animals' backs," said Imbruglia. "Anyone who wears any fur shares the blame for the torture and gruesome deaths of millions of animals each year."

Amy Winehouse: Just Amy Winehouse, a guitar, and a few scraps of duct tape. Soul-singing Amy stripped down her birthday suit in a bid to raise awareness about breast cancer among young women in the new issue of Britain's 'Easy Living'.

Actress Helena Bonham Carter and 'Smooth Operator' singer Sade are also featured in the campaign. The pictures were shot by photographer Carolyn Djanogly. (Text: Popcrunch, Photo Courtesy: Easy Living)

Some of the most desirable women in the world, including Christina Aguilera, Rachel Hunter, Lara Flynn-Boyle, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, Jodie Kidd, Victoria Beckham, Kate Moss, Macy Gray, Geri Halliwell, Serena Williams, Minnie and Kate Driver, Elle MacPherson, Tamara Mellon, Sophie Dahl, Anne Heche, Mimi Rogers, Pamela Anderson, Yasmin Le Bon, Sarah Ferguson and many more, posed in nothing but Jimmy Choo shoes and assorted pieces of Cartier jewellery for 'Four Inches', a book in aid of the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

All the pictures were taken by women too, in fact some of the world's best female photographers including Mary McCartney, Pamela Hanson, Sam Taylor-Wood and Ellen von Unwerth. A collaboration between Jimmy Choo and Cartier, Four Inches is a book for women, about women and by women. (Text: Amazon, Photo Courtesy: Four Inches)
