PETA activist Alecia Moore ‘Pink’ questions Prince William and Queen Elizabeth over ‘hunting’

Hunting as a hobby is not ‘cool’ and it is surprising that Prine William is into it. This is precisely what the American singer Alecia Moore (Pink) is saying and has questioned the prince for the same. However, she is disappointed as he failed to reply the letter questioning his decision to hunt as a hobby, insisting it’s “a bit rude”.

An avid PETA activist, Pink, had once declined the offer to perform at a birthday bash for the Prince and challenged him over his views on hunting.

“I’m still waiting for a reply to my letter to Prince William. He wanted me to play at a concert for his 21st birthday, but I wrote back saying I wouldn’t until he explained why he went hunting. It’s a bit rude, isn’t it?” the Daily Express quoted her, as saying.

The 29-year-old singer had posed a similar question to the prince’s grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, and has yet to hear back. “I also wrote to the Queen… asking why bearskins couldn’t be made of synthetic material,” she said. “I don’t get that we can’t question people just because of their position in society. I support PETA; I want to make people think about their responsibilities. I don’t care if they have a crown,” she added.
