PETA (lol) Mad at Britney

Britney Spears sixth studio album, “Circus,” has been the focus of many performances of late, including a video for the title track in which she has a bunch of circus animals. On Monday, the animal rights organization PETA released a statement condemning Spears’ new video for the title track of her album.

The organization alleges that “cruelly trained lions and elephants” were used for the “Circus” video. The group claims they wrote to the pop star explaining “how trainers shock, whip, and beat exotic animals into performing.”

“Britney may think her life is a circus, but for the animals who are whipped, chained, and beaten to perform under the real big top, the cruelty is very real,” PETA Director Debbie Leahy said in a statement. “She may be headed for a comeback, but when it comes to animals, she still can’t get her act together.”

lol...Guess none of them have ever been on Vegas vacations and seen what those animals do to magicians ;).
