The fabulous 'We Own the Night' actress Eva Mendes covers her breasts with her arms but does show her naked ass in the new photos which bear the slogan 'Fur? I'd rather go naked.'
New York City police begged the animal rights organization to keep details of the poster's unveiling in Rockefeller Park to a minimum as they feared a "mob scene" of activists desperate to see the image.
Eva said she was inspired to take action against fur wearers after receiving a letter from PETA when she first started out in the film industry.
She said, "I wasn't familiar with PETA early in my career. I remember having my first premiere in New York City and being so naive that I didn't have a coat with me. My stylist sent me a fur wrap for the evening and I ignorantly wore it. PETA then wrote me a beautiful letter commenting on my less than educated choice. I was so impressed that I vowed to them and myself to never wear real fur on the red carpet or in my life again. There are way too many amazing faux fur options out there for people to still be wearing real fur. I want people to know that there are options; that killing a poor animal and wearing it isn't cool. But respecting all life forms is cool. Very cool".
Eva follows in the footsteps of Pamela Anderson, Alicia Silverstone, Kim Basinger and Christina Applegate by baring her all for PETA.
