Mother Monster takes to Twitter after being rebuked by PETA for wearing fur coats.

Are your stylists telling you that it's fake, or are you a turncoat?

But by wearing those dumb furs in a heat wave, you're making yourself a target just like the mindless Kim Kardashian," he said, comparing her to the reality starlet who was <a href="/news/articles/1681699/kim-kardashian-flour-bombed.jhtml">flour-bombed by a PETA</a> supporter earlier this year. "As we plan our fall campaigns, please tell us whether what you gracefully told Ellen was heartfelt or just a pose."</P><P>He then asked for a response from her, but he didn't have to wait too long to get it.
