PETA supporter Pink has revealed that she once wrote to Prince William to challenge him about his views on hunting.
But five years after writing the letter, the star still hasn’t heard back.
“I’m still waiting for a reply to my letter to Prince William,” she said. “He wanted me to play at a concert for his 21st birthday, but I wrote back saying I wouldn’t until he explained why he went hunting.”
The 29-year-old singer has also revealed she wrote a similar letter to the Queen, Prince William’s grandmother.
“I also wrote to the Queen… asking why bearskins couldn’t be made of synthetic material,” she said. “I don’t get that we can’t question people just because of their position in society. I support PETA; I want to make people think about their responsibilities. I don’t care if they have a crown.”
Pink has been extremely outspoken in her support of PETA over the last few years, especially in her efforts to criticize the Australian wool industry over its use of mulesing. In May, 2008, she became an advocate for the RSPCA in Australia.
