Leona Lewis will be taking off her clothes for PETA, which is good for animals but also good for Leona because a lot of very famous women have done the same thing previously so that means Leona is as famous as they are because she has done the same thing as them, do you see etc etc. ('Leona Lewis Strip Fur Animals' — The Sun)
