Why the Creator of ‘Catfish’ Is Using Nudity (and Chest Hair!) to Save Animals

Creator and host of MTV’s Catfish and all-around hottie Nev Schulman dropped his clothes and posed in his birthday suit for peta2. No, we didn’t catfish him—we promise.

Nev, who’s arguably a major voice of the millennial generation, chucked his clothes and posed in his natural state (hairy chest and all!) to speak out against using fur in fashion. He frequently contributes thought-provoking articles to attn:—a site that challenges its readers to make a social impact—so it should be no surprise to his fans that he’s challenging others to consider what happens to animals who are used for their fur.

And besides, who doesn’t love a confident guy with a huge heart and a chest full of fur?

There’s no excuse for wearing fur from any animal. When you see a model wearing fur, what you don’t see is the abuse, torture, and suffering that animals on fur farms endure for their skin. And no federal laws protect them. 

Shopping cruelty-free is easy, affordable, and so much fun. With animal-friendly clothing, shoes, handbags, and other accessories in demand, more major brands and fashion leaders are joining the vegan world. Always opt for faux fur when shopping—your compassionate choices will help save animals and leave you looking ultra-chic. Be like Nev—be comfortable in your own skin, and let animals keep theirs. Love the skin you’re in!
