Finally, someone is taking issue with Pamela Anderson's body.
The actres flew to Montreal this week to publicize her latest PETA ad, only to be turned away by the city. Canadian officials denied a permit for the unveling because they claim the bikini-based billboard is somehow sexist.
Said Montreal film commissioner Daniel Bissonnette, whose office laid down the law:
"It is not so much controversial, as it goes against all principles public organizations are fighting for in the everlasting battle of equality between men and women."
Anyone care to make sense of that statement? Do any men feel discriminated against by the following ad?
As seen here, the poster reads: "All Animals Have the Same Parts. Go Vegetarian."
We're pretty sure that's inaccurate, however. We've never seen a cow or pig with silicone in their breasts. Moreover, Pamela's parts haven't stopped many men from eating her.
Replied the actress to the controversy: "In a city that is known for its exotic dancing and for being progressive and edgy, how sad that a woman would be banned from using her own body in a political protest over the suffering of cows and chickens. In some parts of the world, women are forced to cover their whole bodies with burqas -- is that next?
"I didn't think that Canada would be so puritanical."
Snaps, yo! Your move, Canada.
