Beyonce & Jay Z Slammed By World Animal Protection For Baby Tiger Picture
Uh oh, Beyonce is being a naughty girl in Thailand! Well, at least according to World Animal Protection. The “7/11” singer and her husband Jay Z has come under fire for taking a photo with a baby tiger. The shot is seemingly innocent, as it features Blue Ivy and smiles galore. But Dr. Jan Schmidt-Burbach, one of the workers for the animal organization, is not taking it lightly!
“A tiger is not a plaything. Their health and well-being should not be sacrificed for a photo opportunity,” Burbach said in a statement. “When you look behind the scenes, vacation snaps like these support an industry that relies on animal cruelty… this sordid side of tourism is conveniently hidden from public view.” This is not the first time Beyonce has been in trouble for posing with animals. Back in 2006, she was reprimanded by PETA for doing a photo shoot with alligators for her B’Day album.
