Leona, who is a staunch vegetarian, can’t understand why anyone would want to wear a coat made from animal skin.
She said: “It’s such an old school way of doing things. I can’t begin to imagine that people who know all these animals have been killed to make a coat can still wear it. There must be something seriously wrong with them.”
Leona, 23, recently turned down a reported £1 million to open exclusive London department store Harrods’ sale because the shop sells fur.
Although she is keen to point out she does not dislike Harrods, Leona claims she could not accept money to condone something she hates.
She added to Britain’s Hello! magazine: “I don’t have anything against the store or the owner – all I am against is fur. I think it’s totally cruel and I can’t endorse or support anything related to that as it’s against my beliefs, no matter what you pay me.
“I don’t have any bad feelings towards Harrods, I just have feelings against them selling fur – it’s wrong and you have to stand up for that.”

I’m agree with you too,but is very hard to convince all the people in this world that it’s not longer necessary to kill animals for their skin.Maybe somewhere in the future they will understand..maybe
She’s right!! End the annual seal hunt in Canada. Over one million baby seals slaughtered in the past four years.
If you have ever bothered to see exactly how fur is obtained, you would never wear it in a million years. Please keep in mind that most of our fur comes from China where there are no animal welfare laws. The fur trade in China is gaining ground and there is no way it will stop if we continue to buy fur.
See for yourself what happens, but beware, it is very upsetting.
