I don’t mind PETA, but sometimes I hate their tactics.

Here’s their latest publicity stunt geared towards Aretha Franklin:

“Music lovers may think of you as a ‘queen,’ but to animal lovers, you are a court jester . . . Why not shed the old-fashioned look that adds pounds to your frame and detracts from your beautiful voice? Please consider donating your furs to the homeless as ‘queen of compassion,’ Mariah Carey, did. You’ll get a tax credit for the donation, and we at PETA will all sing your praises.”

Weight jokes are so tasteless, really.

You may wonder why they picked on her. Well with all the publicity she’s been getting for being offended that Beyonce called Tina Turner the Queen in her Grammy’s intro, I guess they figured they’d hop on the tail end of the publicity train.

I love a good family friendly movie so you know I’m going to be in line to see College Road Trip staring Martin Lawrence and Raven Symone.

“When an overachieving high school student Melanie Porter (RAVEN-SYMONE) decides to travel around the country to choose the perfect college, her overprotective cop father (MARTIN LAWRENCE) also decides to accompany her in order to keep her on the straight and narrow”

Sounds good to me. It hits theaters March 7th. In other news:

Gary Coleman is married. Don’t laugh, be happy for the guy.

There’s different types of Queens, Queen of This, Queen of That, but I guess Aretha Franklin thinks there’s only one.
