The advocacy group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), fights against what it considers animal abuse, often surprising people who would not consider themselves the least bit abusive. One of PETA's favorite publicity stunts is to enlist celebrities like Pamela Anderson, Eva Mendes and Joanna Krupa to pose naked to drive awareness of PETA's cause.
So are these "do gooder" celebrities really doing good or are they using PETA for their own benefit like an animal PETA might try to defend? It turns out that most people think those celebrities are using PETA to further their own ends. In fact, in a recent online survey conducted on Vizu's Power Polls network, more than 3/4 of the respondents said PETA's nude celebrity ads do more for the celebrity than they do for PETA.
Using PETA is probably even more likely among lesser known celebrities like Christian Serratos or Bethenny Frankel who may be all to eager to doff their clothes in order to exploit PETA's surefire PR machine. Then again, Pamela Anderson, always seems to be ready to do another sexy PETA ad at the drop of a hat.
