Hollywood actress Eva Mendes is the latest star to bear (sorry!) all for animal rights charity PETA. Mendes joins a line of stars from Alicia Silverstone to Pamela Anderson, Tommy Lee, to Christy Turlington. The new face was unveiled today in New York where she posed in a Stella McCartney dress and answered questions. She explained her involvement in the ongoing campaign against fur, "I love animals, but I hadn't had a pet since I was a kid. I recently got a dog and he's not only made me a happier girl--he's made me much more sympathetic to animal rights. I look at my beautiful dog and think, "Of course I'd never eat him or skin him for his fur, so why would I be okay with eating a cow or wearing a cheetah?" It's just not right. It's a contradiction."
