PETA calls out The Offspring for animal cruelty in ‘We Never Have Sex Anymore’ video
The Offspring for featuring a pair of chimpanzees in their ‘We Never Have Sex Anymore’ video.The video, directed by Daron Keet and Matt Egan, sees two chimpanzees dressed up in various different outfits while acting out roles on sets that include a strip club.Today (May 14), PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has sent a letter to the band’s frontman, Dexter Holland, asking him to pull the video because “it risks legitimising a cruel industry, propping up the exotic-‘pet’ trade, and reversing years of animal advocacy work that has nearly ended the use of chimpanzees in Hollywood”.“The out-of-touch video for ‘We Never Have Sex Anymore’ risks resurrecting the chimpanzee trade in Hollywood,” the letter reads.
