Khloe Kardashian Nude PETA Ad

The Khloe Kardashian PETA Ad reached a new audience on Keeping Up with the Kardashians.The socialite and reality TV star first appeared in the ad in December 2008 and it became the focus of an episode of the E! reality TV program, ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians,’ sparking renewed interest.

The ad is part of the PETA ‘I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur’ print ad campaign which uses attractive celebrities to pose provocatively without clothing in photos to bring attention to the mission of getting consumers to stop buying and wearing fur. Previous celebrities in the campaign include Christina Applegate, Sophie Monk and Jenna Jameson.In the recent episode of ‘Keeping up with the Kardashians,’ the ad becomes a focus of attention as Khloe faces criticism from family about her weight. Her stepfather, Bruce Jenner, tells her bluntly to lose weight.

The Khloe Kardashian PETA ad brought her press attention, and with it scrutiny about her appearance and her weight. In the episode she reveals the pain she has endured as she is compared to her sisters, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian whom she believes others view as more attractive than she. The PETA ad thus has been a trigger for Khloe Kardashian’s emotional struggle with insecurities about her body and weight.

In an interview, the reality TV star said that she felt motivated to participate in the campaign after PETA showed her videos revealing the extent of animal cruelty in the fur industry. “The videos are so graphic but they are so necessary for people to watch,” Kardashian says. “I’m so grateful that I did get the opportunity to see them. I had no idea that’s how these animals are treated.”
