Pammy's Beef with KFC

Pamela Anderson, on a rampage over a postal stamp

It's not news that PETA-ist Pamela Anderson is going against one of the biggest fast-food chains in the United States, Kentucky Fried Chicken. As a matter of fact, ever since October, she is an active participant in a boycott against KFC, called Kentucky Fried Cruelty, by which she and the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals hope they can influence people into not buying the company's products.

At the beginning of January, Pamela led a campaign to remove a bust of KFC founder, Colonel Harland Sanders from the state Capitol, saying it was basically just 'a monument to cruelty'. Now, according to MSNBC, she is again outraged by all the attention the founder is getting, by sending a letter to the Postmaster General.

Hearing that the Colonel will be the next personality to appear on a postal stamp, Pamela, on her own initiative, wrote the letter, asking the decision to be re-thought. 'Honoring a man whose legacy involves breaking animals' bones and scalding animals to death in defeathering tanks is contrary to the values of most compassionate citizens, and I hope that you'll deny KFC's request.', the letter said.

She also came with another solution: 'How about another Elvis stamp instead?', Pamela suggested. The letter did not find an immediate response from Postmaster General, John E. Potter. But, taking into consideration her previous actions for PETA, Miss Anderson would definitely not back out without a fight.

This summer, Pamela took part in the organization's fur ban by posing naked in a window store. Besides the wonderful view that she provided for about 15 minutes, wearing nothing else than the tiniest bikini that ever was and a banner saying 'We'd Rather Bare Skin Than Wear Skin', the former 'Baywatch' bombshell also managed to draw attention to one aspect that is vital to PETA: Hollywood stars would kill anything in order to wear fur and look good.
