Mariah’s Menagerie Request: Where’s PETA When You Need Them?

mariah_careyMariah Carey may have once been PETA’s hero for donating a collection of her designer fur coats, but you have to wonder about her commitment to animal rights when the notorious diva bizarrely demands to be surrounded by 20 pure white kittens and 100 white doves as she turns on a London shopping mall’s Christmas lights:

[It] appears her demands for white kittens and doves – which were already proving difficult to track down – were just too much for her hosts.

A source said: ‘We did manage to source the doves that we were going to release into the sky, but the kittens proved terribly difficult.

In the end, it was made clear that due to health and safety, there was no way we could have the animals at Westfield.

‘We do not allow pets into Westfield — that rule would apply for everyone.

‘We have worked extremely hard to make sure that Mariah’s event is fantastic. Even the model of car had to be changed six times to one that her people liked.’

Before health and safety stepped in, finding 20 pure white kittens was giving Miss Carey’s hosts a headache.

The simplest way would be to hire them from one of Britain’s animal acting agencies. But it was thought impossible to provide so many at short notice.

Pet shops have the same problem. One worker at a shop in South-West London said last night: ‘We could get you one but not 20. For starters, all-white kittens are not all that common in Britain.’

Yet mum’s the word from PETA now that she’s pulled this stunt. Since when do they not have a comment about such an egregious use of disposable animals as props?

    Hey… isn’t this sorta… racist??

    >:D

    The petards would probably be more than happy to dump the kittens at the back of a Piggly Wiggly after her shin-dig for her.

    Mariah Carey is a racist. Its pretty clear she chose to employ whites over any other color of kittens.

  5. 5 KFC Lover Nov 19th, 2009 at 11:54 pm

    Fortunate Son. You’re right.

    She also seems to be suffering suffering Michael Jackson syndrome and trying to make herself white. And a fairy princess that rides unicorns while farting butterflies when talking about herself

    What does she have against kittens of color?

    Or impure white kittens?

  7. 7 John Nov 20th, 2009 at 1:56 am

    I think baby seals are white use them.

  9. 9 jenn Nov 20th, 2009 at 8:20 am

    John you are brilliant!!

    She may be 40, but her mind set is still in the pre-teen era. I actually feel sorry for Nick Cannon.

  11. 11 Drazhar Nov 20th, 2009 at 10:37 am

    OK, this is animal abuse. Whatever reason that dimwit piece of turd might have, it’s still abuse. Gods forbid sounding PETAish, but animals are not backdrops.

  12. 12 Minnow Nov 20th, 2009 at 11:54 am

    Did Mariah also demand a pentagram chalked upon the stage floor and the use of a finely honed machete?

    ‘Cuz that’s what I usually do with 20 white kitty-cats on Christmas.

  13. 13 Fortunate_Son Nov 20th, 2009 at 12:08 pm

    There goes every Superbowl ad.

    I can’t wait until Obama guarantees the rights of animals against workplace discrimination.

    Then even the third world will laugh at us.

    You aren’t getting near my pure-white kitten, lady!

  15. 15 MC Mom Nov 20th, 2009 at 12:49 pm

    This reminds me of that AT&T commercial where the poor tool has to run around getting Mariah stuff for her hotel suite. Doesn’t she realize that all these ridiculous demands just make her look like a bigger beyotch?

  16. 16 Pastafarian Nov 20th, 2009 at 12:55 pm

    I more captivated by that guy on the right. Look at how wide the knot is on his tie. Hmmm. Mariah’s prying open her shirt, and I notice some guy’s tie. I’m normal!

  17. 17 Fortunate Son Nov 20th, 2009 at 2:11 pm

    Ok, I’m making a prediction.

    Mariah Carey will die of suicide within the 12 months.

    If it happens, I’ll report back what tipped me off.

  18. 18 Fortunate Son Nov 20th, 2009 at 2:12 pm

    ^next^ 12 (twelve) months. Just so there’s no ambiguity. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

  19. 19 Catharine Nov 20th, 2009 at 10:50 pm

    Teeheehee “Where’s Peta when you need them” Get it??? NEED THEM??

  20. 20 Catharine Nov 21st, 2009 at 1:42 am

    No one NEEDS Peta!LOL Sorry I’ll stop now.

  21. 21 Pastafarian Nov 21st, 2009 at 9:31 am

    What?

  22. 22 Catharine Nov 21st, 2009 at 1:15 pm

    Peta is a bunch of useless twerps. They don’t do any good- I sure don’t see Peta volunteers at shelters walking animals, or opening their homes to foster animals. They exist purely to nag others about animal behavior. Despite their holier-than-thou attitudes they also selectively ‘forget’ about people like Mariah. If you’re going to lecture people about animal rights, you should support animal rights. Everywhere.

    That’s why, in my opinion, they’re not needed. Peta fails pathetically in making a positive difference because of their own hypocritical agenda.

  23. 23 BB Nov 23rd, 2009 at 7:04 pm

    “She may be 40, but her mind set is still in the pre-teen era.”

    So are her clothes.

  24. 24 Ruby Dec 3rd, 2009 at 3:15 pm

    Not to pick, but the spelling is “menagerie.”

  25. 25 Melinda Dec 8th, 2009 at 10:24 pm

    I wonder if the Petards know that those released doves WILL DIE shortly after their release. The doves aren’t trained to return, they are bred to be DISPOSABLE decorations, and once they are let go, they are on their own. Within a matter of days, all of Mariah Carey’s pretty, little backdrops are the victims of starvation, predators, and just plain bad luck.

    I hate Petards, but I know enough not to support dove releases. Those assholes have not said a word about that, have they? Hypocrites.
