Peta won't give up on Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez has reportedly hired extra security after animal rights extremists threatened to "slaughter" her.The fur-wearing singer-and-actress - who is regularly criticised by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) - has now reportedly been sent menacing letters.The letters are said to threaten "to kill her in public, just like the slaughtered animals whose fur she wears."Lopez's husband musician Marc Anthony is said to be so concerned for her safety, he has hired additional security for her. A source told the New York Daily News newspaper: "Marc Anthony has hired two off-duty police officers, in addition to her usual security team, to watch over Lopez whenever she makes public appearances."Lopez's representative has denied the star has increased her security. She said: "This is untrue. She has had the same security team she has always had."PETA has slammed Lopez for hiring extra protection, insisting she is "promoting violence" by wearing fur. A representative for PETA said: "All violence is wrong. But J.Lo needs to stop the real violence she promotes and subsidises rather than give herself extra protection she doesn't need."

PETA's "violent" video depicting a woman in fur, out walking in "public", being clubbed and left bleeding and unconsious just might make Mark Anthony nervous for his wife's safety.
