The Polish model is quick to comment on The Catholic League's criticism about her rauchy poses in the latest ads for the animal organization's 'Be An Angel for Animals' campaign.
Joanna Krupa has responded to the controversies over her latest advertisements for People for the Ethical Treatment for Animals (PETA)'s "Be An Angel for Animals" campaign. Firing back at The Catholic League who criticized her ads, the 30-year-old said on Monday, December 1, "It's understandable that the Catholic League is wary of another sex scandal, but the sex we're talking about pertains to dogs and cats."
She went on, "As a practicing Catholic, I am shocked that the Catholic League is speaking out against my PETA ads, which I am very proud of." The contestant of "Dancing with the Stars" season 9 added, "I'm doing what the Catholic Church should be doing, working to stop senseless suffering of animals, the most defenseless of god's creation."
condemned two Joanna Krupa's ads for PETA, in which she appears as a nude winged angel to lobby against animal breeding and the purchase of animals in pet store. The Polish model is seen in one particular ad, and holding a strategically placed crucifix in the other.
In a statement issued on December 1, the league's president Bill Donohue described the new ads as exploiting "Christian symbols". He further said, "PETA is a fraud. It also has a long and disgraceful record of exploiting Christian and Jewish themes to hawk its ugly services. Those who support this organization sorely need a reality check. They also need a course in Ethics 101."
