Jay-Z Accused of "Faux Fur" Fraud |
Tuesday, January 16, 2007 |
According to TMZ, jacket from Jigga's clothing line, Rocawear, allegedly has dog fur in its collar, even though it's advertised as having fake fur.
An investigation by The Humane Society of the United States, the Hunter jacket on Rocawear.com contains real fur from a raccoon dog, a dog indigenous to Asia that The Humane Society claims are skinned alive for the coats, hence the uproar.
As of today, the $265 coat was stilla "featured" item on the Rocawear website.
Reps for Jay-Z and Rocawear could not immediately be reached for comment. The Humane Society said that it informed the company of the issue a week ago, but that they've taken no action. |
