Animal activists PETA haven’t been kind to Mother Monster of late, attacking the pop star for her wardrobe of furs and, in that one case, even a meat dress.

But Gaga has fired back at the folks at PETA, defending her choice of clothing materials.

“I want you to know that I care deeply about your feelings and views, and I will always support your philosophies about life,” Gaga wrote, in a letter to PETA. “I do not however support violent, abusive, and childish campaigns for ANY CAUSE.

“Particularly one that I respect. ‘Animal Rights.’ I am choosing not to comment on whether or not the furs I purchase are faux fur-pile or real because I would think it hypercritical not to acknowledge the python, ostrich, cow hide, leather, lamb, alligator, ‘kermit’ and not to mention meat, that I have already worn.”

She adds, “You see a carcass, I see a museum pièce de résistance.”

Gaga concludes by defending fellow celebrity PETA victim, Kim Kardashian, who was attacked with flour on the red carpet a while back.

“I respect your views, please respect mine. And to campaigners, Save your flour to make bread for the children who are hungry. And Kim Kardashian is fabulous.”

Who’s side are you on – Lady Gaga or PETA?
