She is likely to deliver the talk at the Hay Festival in Britain.

The 25-year-old will explain the cruel practice of using squalene, an oil extracted from the livers of endangered sharks, to make high-end face cream at the Hay Festival Thursday, reports a website.

Cole will be joined on stage at the literary gathering in Wales by Alannah Weston, Selfridges' creative director, who is eradicating all products using shark squalene from the store.
