Brigitte Bardot


 In 1994, scandalized by Sophia Loren's posing in furs in several printed ads for the Italian fur tailor company Annabella, Bardot published an open letter to Loren, in which she accused her of selling her name and her image "to the most despicable of all advertising: promotion of furs". It is, said Bardot, "degrading, repugnant, lamentable and unworthy to accept money stained with the blood of animals". Added France's leading animal-rights campaigner, Loren should boycott "this abominable trade" and "never forget that wearing a fur is wearing a cemetery on your back". On holiday at the time, Loren did not respond.
