The company that manufactures UGG boots doesn't hide how it makes its popular footwear. A quick trip to the company website tells you everything you need to know.
Somehow, this information escaped former Baywatch star/PETA zealot Pamela Anderson's attention while lobbying against the use of skins in favor of "cruelty-free fashion." For 15 years, she wore the warm, fuzzy sheepskin boots:
Last week, she finally discovered what they were made of and blogged her shock and displeasure:
I'm getting rid of our Uggs - I feel so guilty for that craze being started around Baywatch days - I used to wear them with my red swim suit to keep warm - never realizing that they were SKIN! I thought they were shaved kindly? People like to tell me all the time that I started that trend - yikes! Well lets start a new one - do NOT buy Uggs!

Next, she'll be petitioning for a ban on the use of naughas...
I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that breast implants were created using animal testing. Will she give up her boobs too??
Heehee!
