About 3wks ago DeneanAntoinette put out a post about Diddy having raccoon fur labeled as faux fur. Now you know that this is causing an uproar with the rest of society. Here is a taste of what's going on:
"Another music-to-fashion crossover artist - this time Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter, who famously rapped that he had "99 problems" - was revealed to be selling fur from a type of dog, but the fur was described as "faux." The [Humane Society] purchased a "faux fur" jacket from Jay-Z's Rocawear website, and sent it for lab testing to find out exactly what animal the fur really belonged to. The test showed that the fur was taken from raccoon dogs - a type of dog raised for fur in China. Just weeks ago, hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs and Macy's department store pulled a Sean John brand jacket that was being advertised as faux fur, after tests commissioned by The [Humane Society] revealed the fur was actually from raccoon dogs. Diddy announced that this particular coat would be trimmed only with faux fur in the future. Jay-Z's "faux fur" - advertised coat had no fur labeling on the jacket, so consumers have no way to know that what they think is faux is actually from raccoon dogs, who may have been skinned alive."
