Liam Neeson has Pink peeved.
He’s also made Chrissie Hynde crabby.
Why are the two singers steamed?
It’s over New York’s tradition of offering tourists horse-drawn carriages.
Forever in search of a cause, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) group has started a protest over the carriages because of alleged mistreatment of the horses.
Neeson, a self-professed horse person, claims that horses are not mistreated but actually pampered.
“They’ve been there for a 100 years and they’re an iconic part of New York,” the actor said. “I know many of these guys and I just hate how the horse-drawn carriage industry is being attacked by animal activists.”
“These are the fittest, well-fed, best-kept horses I have ever seen. I’m a horse rider and lover for many years. They have a good life. They work nine-hour days and they have a holiday. Seriously. If you’ve ever seen these stables… I’d move in tomorrow,” Neeson added.
PETA officials responded, saying, “Liam, maybe you’re right, let me ponder this for a moment… It does seem like horses would prefer to endure the freezing cold and the panicky booms, noisy traffic, and exhaust fumes of the city over living in a lush pasture.”
Guess only Mr. Ed can answer the question.
