Protesting Horse-Drawn Carriages - Kirsten Johnston for PETA (VIDEO)
Kirsten Johnston for PETA

Kirsten Johnston objects the use of horse-drawn carriages, so much so that she bares all to lie naked on a horse in the latest ad brought to you by the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). 

According to the PETA site, horses that pull carriages deal with horrible respiratory problems associated with breathing in exhaust fumes, suffer agonizing leg pain from traversing the pavement, and have even dropped dead from heat stroke. They are also sometimes involved in traffic accidents.

We haven’t seen much of Johnston since ‘Third Rock from the Sun,’ in which she played the ever-so-horny Sally Solomon, was canceled by NBC. I must say, she looks absolutely stunning in her PETA ad campaign against horse-drawn carriages, although I’m sure she was helped with a bit of photoshopping magic.

Each year the number of accidents involving horse-drawn carriages continues to rise, resulting in injuries not only to the horses but also to humans. It's time to put an end to this cruel industry once and for all—especially in New York City, where tourists can find countless activities that don't involve animals. (peta.org)

Yeah right. It's like she's wearing a dress made of hair, lol. Why do it so half-assed. She gives other naked PETA campaigns a bad name!

Oh, quit fussing -- a bit of mystery is a good thing. LOL

Yah Sandra. I am pretty particular regarding nudity. If I ever pose for a naked calendar or something, you will see me all there.

Haha, well, be sure to let us know Ayman! In the case of the PETA campaign, I think it's about the cause and created buzz to get attention, which Kirsten has done a great job of. I love this campaign.
