Waka Flocka Flame Reps PETA.

Chart climbing rap superstar, Waka Flocka Flame, announced that he’ll be appearing in an anti-fur ad for PETA.  The rapper says his love for animals inspired him to become more active in the animal rights movement.

In a statement through his publicist, Flame said:

Animals should be treated the same way as you would a kid.  Would you want someone to just walk up and skin your kid?  Hell no!

Speaking with a PETA spokesperson about their latest involvement with Flame, she revealed that not only does he not wear fur he also swore off leather and became a vegan.

The ad, coming out on February 22, will be for PETA’s “Ink Not Mink” campaign and feature fur-free stars Lady Gaga, Pink, and Mariah Carey.
