Today PETA released its newest ads in the long campaign where famous figures such as Pamela Anderson and Dennis Rodman profess that they'd rather "Go Naked" than wear fur. Who's joining those illustrious ranks? It's the strippers from Rick's Cabaret! PETA says, "Nowadays, savvy investors are looking for safe bets." Those bets probably wouldn't include investing in the establishment that the animal rights organization highlights as "the only strip joint on NASDAQ." Shares of Rick's currently sell for $2.54, a year after they went for over $25.
PETA is no stranger to pushing the envelope—this ad joins the ranks of a recently banned Super Bowl commercial and a drag queen drawing attention to her package. On their softer side, when not courting Penthouse Pets, PETA is warning children of the how cruel it is to eat adorable sea kittens. Gawker rips into the new ads saying, "$200 and all of these girls will presumably eat steak, while stripping."
