The race for the next mayor of New York City may be a historic one.
Not only for humans, but for horses, too!
Horse drawn carriages in New York City have become a big issue these days.
Animal activists say it is severe animal cruelty to have horses drawing carriages around cars in the city. Plus they say the horses are treated very poorly!
But others say that to remove carriage horses from the city will put 300 people out of a job!
One of the supporters of carriage horses is Christine C. Quinn - a top candiate to replace Michael Bloomberg as mayor of the Big Apple.
After Lea Michele, Pamela Anderson and other celebs have voice their concern for carriage horses, Adrien Brody has jump aboard the carriage that hopefully end horse travel in NYC.
The actor wrote a letter on behalf of PETA to NYC Council Speaker Christine Quinn, once again asking for an end to horse carriages in the Big Apple.
"A 3rd horse collapses in NYC!!! Are you kidding me!! I'm so sad… @peta @ChoMatic @PamelaDAnderson we have to end this now."
We're sad too. Those poor horses.
PETA said:
"If it seems like just last week that Mayor Bloomberg was callously dismissing the death of a horse used for New York’s infamous carriage rides, that’s because it was.
And in the days since Bloomberg made unintentionally ironic comments like '[they] probably wouldn’t be alive if they didn’t have a job' (talk about a catch 22), there have been two more horse-drawn carriage 'accidents.' (Although what else can be expected when sensitive, easily frightened horses are forced to work 10-hour days in all weather extremes on New York City’s crowded streets?)
The most recent incident happened during Friday’s rush hour when a horse fell down in the middle of the busy street. Witnesses said the horse either collapsed on his own or because his leg became caught in the carriage when he bucked."
U should go sign the petition to ban horse-drawn carriages in NYC: HERE.
The drama surrounding Corey Haim's alleged sexual abuse at the hands of an A-list actor is nonstop.
As we previously reported, Hollywood was hit with a shocking report by RadarOnline when the media outlet indicated that a unnamed MAJOR celeb was supposedly involved in sexually abusing The Lost Boys actor when he was a a young star in the 1980s.
While there has been a lot of back and forth on whether this report is true or not, a man named Greg Harrison has since accused actor and director Dominick Brascia as the late star's abuser. Harrison also claimed Corey Feldman was the person who helped orchestrate the whole thing.
This accusation obviously didn't sit well with Brascia, whom EXCLUSIVELY commented on the troubling allegations with us! In a new statement, Dominick denied abusing his friend of "over 25 years" and shared:
