PETA Slams Katy Perry Over 'Roar' Music Video

Yeah, well, PETA is PETA.

At Variety:

Animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) recently slammed the use of animals in Perry’s video, which features the 28 year-old singer hanging out with monkeys, elephants and tigers.

“Animals used for entertainment endure horrific cruelty and suffer from extreme confinement and violent training methods,” a PETA spokesman said in a statement. “They often become stressed and anxious when hauled around and forced into unfamiliar or frightening situations.”

Oh goodness.

I'm sure Ms. Perry's crew treated the animals well. Can't folks have a little fun savagery these days?
