[PETA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animal-intelligence)’s never really been an organization known for its subtlety, so you probably shouldn’t be surprised by the skinned [CGI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/find-your-courage) animals crawling around and griping in their new commercial.

In the latest ad, a part of their “Stolen For Fashion” campaign, an animated duo voiced by comedian Ricky Gervais and popstar (and longtime PETA supporter) Pink confront a fashionista over her sartorial choices. I guess if I was running around skinless like Gervais’ rabbit character, I’d be a bit on the peeved side, too.

The video will be debuted during Fashion Week in Paris during a Q & A session held by designer Stella McCartney, Pink and Dan Mathews, the vice-president of PETA.
