You've seen her sporting her 'Be Kind To Animals' tee on VH1's Brooke Knows Best and, now, Brooke Hogan is taking her love of animals one step further by vowing never to buy fur. In her latest blog post, she says "I love animals, I was raised with animals and respect them. I was speechless when I saw this and it affected me deeply." Of course, Brooke's referring to our very own Chinese fur farm video which, hip-hop mogul and long-time animal rights activist, Russell Simmons showed her.

Brooke also says "If I can change one person's mind about wearing fur by writing this blog then I'm happy." I'm sure you've changed a lot more minds than that Brooke-tini!

If you've been to Global Grind today you've seen that Tila Tequila's recent blog made the front page of the site as the Editor's Pick. The MTV reality star, internet celebrity, and all-around awesome chick, is never one to hold her tongue, and this time she's sounding off about the harsh reality of the fur industry. In her blog (which garnered over 900 comments!) Tila informed fans of her love for animals and urged them "to make conscious, compassionate choices" when shopping. She even posted the PETA investigation video of a Chinese fur farm and a link to our Fur-Free Pledge.

I give major props to Tila for speaking out about what's important to her and using her influence as a celebrity to help spread a positive and crucially important message. If you haven't seen the video yet, I strongly recommend you watch it and share it with anyone who will listen.

And if you haven't been checking out Global Grind, be sure to bookmark it to read blogs from Rev Run, Russell Simmons, Pras and pretty much every other name in hip hop.
