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 diva went EXTRA hard performing My Man on Sunday, with some big stage theatrics and an even bigger wig.
But if we're being honest, it kinda sorta definitely sounded like she was lip-syncing!!!!
The 40-year-old gave it her all on the stage, writhing on the floor while her platinum hair flew about. Though her vocals were a little too effortless to line up with the grandiose, seizure-like movements she was making.
Not that we didn't love every second of it -- girl just lip-synced for her life!
Do U detect any lip-syncing? Ch-ch-check out the performance (above)!
