Pop icon Madonna has angered animal rights activists by dyeing her sheep in different colors. The multiple Grammy and Golden Globe award winner dyed the sheep on her country estate in blue, pink, yellow, and green for a photo shoot in Vogue magazine.
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals or RSPCA says the incident is an "irresponsible publicity stunt" and it would provoke more similar incidents.
"Why is it necessary and what are they trying to prove?" The RSCPA spokesperson questioned Madonna's recent animal-related activity. "It sends out the wrong message about how to use animals. Even if the dye is safe for the animals, others might copy it with an unsafe dye."
The 49-year-old singer and her husband Guy Ritchi clarify the event by saying they were just paying homage to famous fashion and portrait photographer Cecil Beaton who used to live in their Ashcombe estate in Wiltshire during the 1930s-40s.
