“There are few things more out of touch than draping yourself in the skins of animals who were beaten, electrocuted, and even skinned alive for their fur,” PETA told Gossip Cop in a statement. “Pink’s New York Fashion Week PETA billboard shows that true beauty comes from kindness — Chris Brown’s furs are just more of the same from him: ugly violence.”

Last week, PETA also criticized Kanye West and Kim Kardashian for dressing their daughter North in fur on night out for West’s Adidas show. 

Tran posted the image of the two of them, along with her friend Christina Milian, to Instagram:
