Pamela Anderson flew to Montreal to unveil her newest vegetarian campaign for PETA, but Canadian officials denied a permit for the event at the last minute, claiming her nearly-nude ad is sexist. Anderson, 43, poses in a bikini with her body marked off in "rump," "ribs" and "breast."
The ad's logo reads, "All Animals Have the Same Parts." A Montreal official explains the reason behind turning down the permit: "It is not so much controversial, as it goes against all principles public organisations are fighting for in the everlasting battle of equality between men and women."Snipes PETA senior vice president Dan Mathews: "I think that city officials are confusing 'sexy' with 'sexist.'"
