Animal advocates had it figured out a long time ago—if you want people to pay attention, show them pictures of hot celebrities posing naked.
The latest one in line was Brooke Hogan, daughter of wrestling legend turned reality TV star Hulk Hogan, who bared it all inside a cage for a photo shoot that seemed to be in support of PETA’s “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign.
Turns out the photo exhibit, which took place in Wynwood’s Cafeina Lounge last Thursday, wasn’t actually a PETA-sponsored event like the Miami Herald had reported a few days earlier.
"The photo shoot that Brooke Hogan participated in was not a PETA-sponsored event. However, we're grateful to Brooke for participating in the photo exhibition in Miami, for which the proceeds of the photos are going toward PETA's lifesaving programs," PETA told the Huffington Post.
The exhibit was put together by photographer Jordan Michael Zuniga under the title “Women in Cages,” with the intent of creating awareness against animal cruelty.
Many celebrities have appeared nude in PETA's campaign, including Christina Applegate and George Clooney's ex-girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis.
Despite the slight misunderstanding, Brooke Hogan hopes her photos create the kind of attention she was looking for.
“I hope it shocks them to see a human in the place of an ‘animal.’ We've almost gotten past the prejudices and racisms among humans alone, next is animals. We're all God's creatures. Just because we don't speak the same language doesn't mean they don't have feelings too,” she told Miami New Times.
