CELEB: Beyonce Angers PETA, Baby Alligators

You’d be hard-pressed to find a current pop star more beautiful and talented than the lovely Beyonce. No matter your taste in music, it’s hard to deny her talent--really, the broad has the entire package. But judging from an incident involving a baby alligator, our beloved B might be kind of an asshole.

While shooting the cover art for her newest disc, B’Day, photographers asked Beyonce to pose holding a baby alligator. She complied, but with one minor adjustment; she demanded someone tape the little alligator’s mouth closed.

Perhaps B should have taken the hint when alligator pissed on her. After news of the photo-shoot leaked to the media, PETA contacted a British reptile expert, Clifford Warwick, to get his opinion on how B fucked up.

But alligators are so cute when they piss on hot chicks.


Beyonce + Big Alligators

that picture with the big alligators - it's one of those ideas that probably sounded like a really hot concept, but she looks so uncomfortably that it pretty much ruins the sexy.

I am so crazy in love with the name of her new album.

it's not hard to deny her talent... quite easy in fact. she has none

i'm not sure how that makes her an asshole? part of capturing them, involes tieing the mouth shut. alligators might not be all that dangerous, but even a little one snapping down on you would hurt like hell. though, who thought of alligators for an album titled B'Day??? anyways, i doubt the little guy was hurt, just scared, and that could have just been from her hair

that is a dumb picture.. what is the point of having her with aligators?

You'd think at some point, someone, especially at the record company if not in her own management, would say to her "Uh, Beyonce, you do know what that title sounds like, don't you?"

It looks like a composite to me. Like those No Limit digital collage record covers.

If i was asked to take a photograph while holding an alligator i would probably request he have his mouth taped... sorry if that makes me an ass hole but i care about not being bitten more than if im scaring the alligator. Id do the same thing for alot of different animals... dont crabs have their claws taped the entire time in the tank and then while they are being handled???

yeah, I don't see the big frickin' deal? They tape their mouths closed when they have to capture them...what's the diffrence?

At least she didn't turn it into shoes.

She probably could have avoided a little baby alligator piss if she'd forgone the tape, though. There were handlers there and she wasn't going to be bitten.

thank G-d they didn't.

Beyonce loves the animal abusing.

She was scared of a baby alligator?

How hard is it to hold that and not let it bite you? Not very I'd imagine.

There are bigger "baby" gators than that, Mr. Stitches! AND it would hurt like hell if even one that small bit you. Take it from someone who is obsessed with alligators. It isn't inhumane to tape its mouth shut, it's common friggin' sense. And yeah, that picture with the big alligators IS digitally altered.

I love Beyonce and have seen her perform live. Her voice is amazing and the girl can dance.

But PETA has bigger problems with her as she sports a lot of fur on the red carpets. They've gone after her a lot for that in the past.
