Angelina Adopts Leather

angelina-jolie-inglorious-de

We’ve been through this before: PETA attacks fur wearers at every opportunity but prefers to neglect the leather wearers, presumably for personal safety reasons.

Angelina Jolie is no exception. She showed up to the premiere of her pseudo-hubby’s new flick Inglourious Basterds wearing an incredibly fabulous Michael Kors strapless leather dress.

PETA has long held the belief that Angie could do no wrong. But don’t be fooled: This is no faux-animal.

The dress (which retails at $3,295) is now sold out at Nordstrom. All the same, PETA’s blog let her off the hook:

Don’t worry, Ange, we knew a big-hearted U.N. Goodwill Ambassador like yourself would never wear the skins of achingly adorable little animals…we just knew it.

Actually, I think that U.N. Goodwill Ambassador just did.  (Maybe she considers wearing them adopting?) But I guess I wouldn’t want to mess with Angelina Jolie either. I’m pretty sure the woman has fangs.

    Even if she did have fangs, she couldn’t get them past those big-ass lips of hers. Unless the fangs are about 8 inches long that is.

    This is the same woman known for once wearing a vial of her husband’s blood around her neck. And for diffidently tossing off a statement like, “You’re young, you have knives, you’re in bed, things happen.” So I’d approach with extreme caution.

  3. 3 Koka Aug 14th, 2009 at 6:07 pm

    She has a glow in the dark tat that says “Beware, I Bite”.

  4. 4 Beige Aug 14th, 2009 at 6:10 pm

    Just to clarify: I think Angelina Jolie is awesome and wonderful, and I’m not just saying that b/c she lives under my bed and drinks my blood every night. Well, every other night. The nights when Willem Dafoe’s not there.

  5. 5 Scott F. Aug 14th, 2009 at 6:14 pm

    Beige, you’ve got a William Dafoe under your bed too? It does creep me out a bit, but I can never thank him enough for driving Luke Perry off my property.

  6. 6 Beige Aug 14th, 2009 at 6:20 pm

    Yeah, the Orkin guy told me only a Dafoe would work, that spray is ineffective b/c Perry never cleans himself, so he doesn’t ingest anything.

    How far afield can we take this thread?

    Unfortunately, the Dafoe system doesn’t seem to effect Angelina or similar U.N. Goodwill Ambassadors. We really need to look into the pest control system Saddam used to use, it seemed pretty effective at keeping the UN out.

  9. 9 Pearce Aug 14th, 2009 at 8:25 pm

    I hate Michael Kors. I hate him so hard.

    Occasionally, I worry about Michael C. Hall in my closet, mostly because I’m afraid he’s got that power from the Gamer trailer where he can JAZZHANDS!! and everything blows up.

    ….actually, that’s kind of a cool power….

  10. 10 katie Aug 15th, 2009 at 2:01 am

    i don’t like michael kors either, i think his designs are horrible. and when i used to watch project runway, he wore the same thing every week. um.. ok?

  11. 11 Pearce Aug 15th, 2009 at 4:19 am

    Michael Kors’ stuff is so generic. I mean, honestly, I’m sure I could find almost the exact same thing from….well, pretty much anywhere selling leather goods.

    I refuse to wear his stuff on principle. There would have to be so much money changing hands for me to wear his “fashionable” clothing….

  12. 12 Beige Aug 15th, 2009 at 8:16 am

    I’ve started a small population of Christopher Walkens in my attic, and they seem to keep the has-been bratpackers at bay. You really do get used to the scritching sounds late at night and all the calling for “more cowbell”.

  13. 13 Ln Aug 15th, 2009 at 1:46 pm

    Beige, I will come and take your Walkens anytime. I think he is all sorts of yummy. In return you can have my Chuck Norris.

  14. 14 Meg 2.0 Aug 15th, 2009 at 5:26 pm

    Man, I wish I had a Walken or Dafoe…all I have is a German techno viking. He scares away creepy drunk guy friends for me though.

  15. 15 JollyGreenMidget Aug 15th, 2009 at 5:54 pm

    Sigh…Billy Mays used to hide under my bed. He would jump out late at night screaming about Orange Glo. And Michael Jackson lived in my closet. The house has been quiet and un-terrifying these days. Maybe Willem Dafoe can come stay under my bed for awhile.
    And I like my Michael Kors coat. It’s a plain black wool coat I bought at TJ Maxx for $60.

  16. 16 mermaid Aug 15th, 2009 at 9:18 pm

    I’m jealous. all I have is a dog who licks his balls in the middle of the living room when the 2 neighborhood mormon dudes on bicycles stop by.

  17. 17 TheIrish Aug 15th, 2009 at 11:25 pm

    Crap, I wish I had been here earlier for Dafoe talk.

  18. 18 Don H. Aug 16th, 2009 at 2:18 am

    There is a difference between cows and furs.

    Cows are eaten, their hide often gets tossed. Angela Jolie’s fur dress just saved some useful stuff from being landfill filler. Furs on the other hand, are killed for their skin only.

    So while PETA may be hypocritical, there’s enough of a difference to allow it, IMHO.

    (As for PETA, their three cofounders are Hugh Hefner, Bob Gucione and Larry Flint. Enough said.)

  19. 19 Scam Vets Aug 16th, 2009 at 4:55 am

    “PETA’s blog let her off the hook”

    that article is clearly dated April 9th and about an unrelated fashion incident. Is the writer here at Deceiver retarded or libelous or both?

  20. 20 Jannah Aug 16th, 2009 at 6:22 pm

    Ruh-roh! :-o

  21. 21 saintdevil Aug 16th, 2009 at 9:59 pm

    So, only “achingly adorable little” animals are worth PETAs attention? The Basterds!

  22. 22 Angry Army Wife Aug 17th, 2009 at 8:43 am

    Love Walken – Marcupials scare me – cause their fast!

    I do not like PETA and I do not like Jolie. So, they let her off of the hook for wearing some poor animals skin, but not others? Right there is a big fat group of hypocrits. Kind of like Angie herself – “I hated my father for cheating on my mom, yet, wait, she did the same thing to Jen”

  23. 23 Emerson Aug 17th, 2009 at 10:40 am

    Your puny, simple minds couldn’t even BEGIN to comprehend the nuance of the situation that allows her to do things that may on the surface appear hypocritical. How dare you! She buys brown babies!!

  24. 24 Jrod Aug 17th, 2009 at 11:33 am

    Can you imagine her in that dress, and then taking the sheets off of a old water bed, so you just have the bubble, dipping her in massage oil, and

    What were we talking about?

  25. 25 Pastafarian Aug 17th, 2009 at 11:57 am

    Look at those stick like legs and arms. Very Sexy. They look like the arms and legs of a very elderly woman.

    How would I know? Mind your own business that’s how.

  26. 26 Beige Aug 17th, 2009 at 11:57 am

    Saintdevil: True, that. When’s the last time PETA had a “save the calamari” drive? Or a “I’d rather go naked than keep a tarantula as a pet” campaign? (Actually, I’d rather be kneecapped than be near a tarantula, period, but that’s another discussion for another day.)

  27. 27 Ln Aug 17th, 2009 at 12:28 pm

    Pasta – I was just thinking that she looks – not in the face – much older than she is. I really just want to give her some food.

  28. 28 Simon Scowl Aug 17th, 2009 at 1:33 pm

    Please
    Eat
    Today,
    Angelina

  29. 29 Mermaid Aug 17th, 2009 at 2:20 pm

    LOOKOUT! These two may be top US politicians soon. Methinks they are being groomed. Pitt seems to have an untarnished reputation but people have short memories anyway and Jolies’ weird past will be long forgotten what with the adopted babies and the UN connection.

  30. 30 Angry Army Wife Aug 17th, 2009 at 2:25 pm

    She still gives me the creep after tonguing her brother on TV at an awards show. I don’t care how many babies her and her “significant other” buys.

  31. 31 Pastafarian Aug 17th, 2009 at 2:32 pm

    She’s a Libertarian right? Fine by me.

  32. 32 Pearce Aug 17th, 2009 at 6:33 pm

    Brad Pitt, mayor of NOLA? I’ma go hide under the covers. Tell me when the scary is gone.

  33. 33 katie Aug 18th, 2009 at 12:45 am

    “please eat today angelina” i seriously LOLed so loudly i woke up my cat, simon.

    There is a difference between cows and furs.

    Cows are eaten, their hide often gets tossed. Angela Jolie’s fur dress just saved some useful stuff from being landfill filler. Furs on the other hand, are killed for their skin only.

    So I can wear all the fur I want as long as I down a few bowls of weasel stew?

  35. 35 MC Mom Aug 18th, 2009 at 7:38 pm

    Be careful to dip the weasels in boiling water when makin’ that weasel stew, Minnow. I hear them critters got some serious cooties.

    That makes me wonder if PETA allows us to sterilize anything because, after all, germs and parasites are animals too.

    All this has some relevance to the Orkin/Luke Perry discussion, but I’m not really sure what yet…

  36. 36 Pearce Aug 18th, 2009 at 10:28 pm

    Won’t somebody think of the tapeworms?!

  37. 37 chuck Aug 19th, 2009 at 11:12 am

    liberals are SUCH hypocrites

  38. 38 Beige Aug 19th, 2009 at 12:00 pm

    Won’t somebody think of the tapeworms?!

    Dude. Every time I look at that photo, above.

  39. 39 Pearce Aug 19th, 2009 at 6:09 pm

    And once more, I profess my love for Beige.
