Pamela Anderson kissed excitedly by homosexual pop star

A naked Pamela Anderson will beckon from Chinese billboards in a new anti-fur campaign — if the former Baywatch star can get past the censors...

...The posters, featuring the slogan "Give fur the cold shoulder" in English, show the 37-year-old actress topless with her back to the camera and an arm partly hiding her right breast.

An image of falling snow appears above Chinese characters reading "cold shoulders are nothing compared to the pain they feel" and "please don't wear fur."

China's straight-laced media regulators have yet to give the posters a green light, said Jason Baker, a Hong Kong-based spokesman for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which is promoting the anti-fur campaign.

"Depending on the censors, they may be concerned about it, but it's very tastefully done," Baker said. "We may end up having to crop (the photo) a bit."

This may be a superb PR stunt directed at an American audience, but it doesn't yet have anything to do with China, and it certainly isn't real news, for these reasons:

1. None of the reports indicate that anyone has actually tried to place the ad anywhere in China.

2. The Chinese media is already full of revealing pictures of Pamela Anderson. The image reproduced above is from state-owned news agency Xinhua's website, and you can find it here, with a story (in Chinese) headlined "Anderson is kissed excitedly by homosexual pop star [Elton John]".

UPDATE: The China Daily has published an edited version of the AP story about the Pamela anti-fur ad and titled it Alien beauty strips for animal rights in China.
