Steve-O Teams Up with PETA for Anti-Fur Campaign
Before I begin, I must preface this with a few statements about myself. First, I find men 
attractive in general and tend to not be too picky. Second, I grew up in a small town in Maryland where there are a lot of, well, small town folk (i.e. tattoos of their own name, “gangs” based on which trailer park you live in, etc.).
That being said, I find Steve-O from MTV’s Jackass (and Wild Boyz, and soon-to-be USA show Dr. Steve-O) attractive. I love that he has a tattoo on his rear end that says “Your Name” in fancy lettering. His smile is goofy and sincere and makes me smile.
Now, he has shot two print ads with PETA’s anti-fur campaign - Fur Is Dead - that makes him even more attractive in my eyes.
But this is the boy who’s gained fame on pain! He, however, points out that he has a choice, and the animals don’t. As he put it in an interview with PETA during the photo shoot: “Abuse yourself all you want, just leave animals out of it. Don’t wear fur.”
At PETA’s Fur Is Dead site, you can see larger versions of both of these ads, read a great write up about Steve-O and the campaign, and enter to win an autographed skate deck, a copy of Jackass Number Two, and Steve-O’s own monogrammed towel.
He may be a total Jackass in many ways, but this unconventionally sexy Wild Boy has stripped naked (haha, like that’s a stretch for him) for a good cause! Way to go, Steve-O!
