Pamela Anderson has protested against plans to put Colonel Sanders on a stamp.
The actress - an active member of animal rights group PETA - has written an
angry letter to the US Postmaster General blasting the request of fast-food
chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC).
She wrote: "Honoring a man whose legacy involves breaking animals' bones
and scalding animals to death in defeathering tanks is contrary to the
values of most compassionate citizens, and I hope that you'll deny KFC's
request. How about another Elvis stamp instead?"
This not the first time the former 'Baywatch' star has protested against the
fast-food giant.
Last year, Pamela called for a Colonel Sanders statue to be destroyed
because it was a daily reminder of cruelty to chickens.
Pamela, who petitioned Governor of Kentucky Ernie Fletcher on behalf of
PETA, wrote: "The bust of Colonel Sanders stands as a monument to cruelty
and has no place in the Kentucky State Capitol."
Pamela also accused KFC bosses of "mutilating God's creatures" by fattening
chickens up to make succulent burgers.
The 39-year-old's request was rejected by Governor Fletcher, who described
Sanders as a "Kentucky icon".
