PETA slams Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra for animal abuse during their extravagant wedding
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas' wedding took the internet by storm as fans eagerly waited for exclusive pictures to drop of the much-awaited nuptials and the accompanying ceremonies. However, the couple seems to have found themselves in some hot water following the release of snaps from their wedding in Jodhpur that showed animals being used during some ceremonies.
PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals) released an official statement condemning Priyanka and Nick for choosing to use helpless animals for the purpose of their wedding, amounting to animal abuse. The official statement on their website reads, "Priyanka was ill-served by not being advised of the firestorm that would be caused by participating in animal abuse. It doesn’t make a person look big or glamorous to promote cruelty to animals who have no choice but to serve." The statement continues with the organization appreciating celebrities that actually take the effort to protect the rights of animals. "Overwhelmingly, these days, PETA is delighted to see so many celebrities who feel passionately about protecting animals.”
