Jackass star Steve-O strips down naked, not for the love of his silly antics, but for the love of furry animals.
Steve-O flaunts his tattoos in two of PETA ads with the taglines: "I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" and "Ink, Not Mink".
Although Steve-O does a lot of silly and dangerous and silly stunts, animal torture for the sake of fashion is not one of his beliefs, as unlike him, "they don't have a choice."
Instead of animal abuse and wearing fur, Steve-O is encouraging his fans to "[b]e comfortable in your own skin and let animals keep theirs."
