Waka Flocka Flame to Become the New Face of PETA

Waka joins Lady Gaga, Pink and Mariah Carey in PETA’s new “Ink Not Mink” campaign…

Waka Flocka Flame has a lot of love for his furry friends. In fact the Atlanta bad boy revealed to XXLMag.com that his passion for animal rights inspired him to be involved in the new PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) campaign.

Launching on February 22, Waka will be joining PETA’s “Ink Not Mink” campaign in Los Angeles, CA alongside Lady Gaga, Pink, and Mariah Carey, Flame’s publicist, Kali Bowyer said.

When commenting on his involvement with PETA, the 1017 Brick Squad rep told XXL, “Animals should be treated the same as you would a kid. Would you want someone just to walk up and skin your kid? Hell no!” —Amber McKynzie

    I commend him for having an opinion(unless someone told him this is “whats hot in the streets”). But I wonder if he will stop eating animals, if he hasn’t already…or stop wearing leather and shit. If he really is making a stand, which is really not a Hip Hop thing in this case, I support him for going against the grain, just not his music.
