| |  Bardot "Ashamed to be French"

Brigitte Bardot 'Ashamed to Be French'
Jul 19, 12:43 PM EST
Brigitte Bardot, angered over what she called France's insensitivity to the plight of minks, has threatened to move to Sweden.
The French film star, who runs a foundation for animal rights, wrote a letter Wednesday to Swedish Prime Minister Goran Persson calling his nation one of only a few countries "that takes into consideration animal well-being."
Bardot also contacted the French Finance Ministry to criticize France for attacking Sweden's proposal for new European Commission rules on conditions for raising minks in Sweden.
"The intervention of my government makes me ashamed, ashamed to be French," she wrote.
While Bardot admitted that her image and international renown have always been linked to France, she said: "To the contrary of (film legend Greta) Garbo, who left Sweden to finish her days in the United States, perhaps I will leave France to finish my days in Sweden, since today, I feel much closer to Swedish sensitivity than to the French insensitivity."
She also encouraged Sweden to push ahead with its proposal to improve conditions for the "millions of unfortunate minks raised for their fur."
This is probably closer to a News & Politics post, but isn't France ashamed to have her because of her political beliefs??? I love animals too...don't get me wrong...but what has made her go batshit crazy in her old age? Was it Roger Vadim or something??? |

She was actually brought up on charges for it. She is VERY far right... |

How can she be so rotten on the inside? She used to be a real beauty. |

In fact, I don't even know who she is (apart from being the model in THAT famous photo). I just love anybody who speaks out for animal rights. Which explains my sort-of liking for:    |

I really don't know who she is. Is this like the Sandie Shaw-thing? I don't know anything about her either. Well, I've heard a few of her songs and errrrrr didn't like them much. New York Dolls, too heh. Does this make me an imposter apostle?! |

| | | I like some of her Gainsbourg tunes, esp. "Bonnie and Clyde." I like Jane Birkin better though!
I have to say I like Jodie Marsh, even though she garners a fair amount of shit and rumors. She seems like a nice, genuine person... |

| | | She's a racist, homophobic cunt.
I don't care what she does for animal rights or apparently how attractive she was in her youth; I do not like Bigot Bardot. |

I'm not aware on her beliefs of the above stated.....but I'm saying, good for her on this subject.
Anyone that wears fur, or is involved in anyway is scum in my book. And should die the same death they inflict on the helpless. |
