Twilight star strips for anti-fur ad

'Twilight' star Christian Serratos has become the latest celebrity to pose naked for PETA's (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) 'Rather Go Naked than Wear Fur' campaign.

The 19-year-old, the youngest PETA ad star, is pictured in a forest with the message "Animals killed for their fur are electrocuted, drowned, beaten, and often skinned alive. Please don't wear fur." written beside her.

In an interview to launch the ad the actress, who plays Angela in the 'Twilight' films, said: "I'd always thought it was really respectable when people decided to completely go natural and just strip down for the animals. As soon as I could, I wanted to do it."
