Dave Navarro Gets Naked For Animals

March 4, 2010
Dave Navarro Gets Naked For AnimalsJane's Addiction rocker Dave Navarro is the latest celebrity to strip for animal rights charity PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).

The 42-year-old got bollock naked for the charity's 'Ink, Not Mink' series having admitted he used to wear fur when he was younger.

He told PETA: "There was a time in my life where I would wear over-the-top outfits, and some of those outfits contained fur"

“Then several years ago, I saw video footage of animals being skinned alive and screaming, and it honestly is the most horrific, inhumane thing I've ever seen – a dying, twitching, skinless animal in such terrified shock crying, screaming blood-curdling screams that are so hard to watch and listen to."

Tommy Lee, Carey Hart, Chester Bennington and Jackass' Steve O are some of the other names who have participated in 'Ink, Not Mink' ads for PETA and its affiliates.
