Tony G. & October for PETA

He’s done movies. He’s hobnobbed with Oprah. He was even part of a reality series.

And former Chiefs tight end Tony Gonzalez took another step into the pantheon of superstar athletes: he has posed nude. He and his wife October both posed nude for a ad that will be running for the People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

“We should be protecting animals, not sacrificing their lives for the sake of fashion or luxury,” Gonzalez is quoted as saying. “October and I have changed many of our habits in light of the inhumane treatment of animals that occurs not only in the fur industry but also on factory farms.

Gonzalez went to a vegan diet about three years ago and he says eliminating meat and products from animals (milk, cheese, etc.) has helped him physical and kept his body in better condition.

Even with some rather unfortunately placed type in the ad, it’s pretty obvious that both Tony and October have kept their bodies in good conditions. Over the years, several other movie stars and athletes have posed naked for PETA ads like Dennis Rodman and Pamela Anderson.

    They tried to get Michael Vick to do it, but he had some business to attend to with his new kennels.

    I agree that everybody is entitled to their opinion and if he chooses to not eat meat or wear fur, more power to him.

    However, where I live, it sometimes gets really cold. And nothing keeps you warm like fur, and I mean real fur, not faux fur. So thanks, Tony, but no thanks. I want to stay warm.

    So many “fur” jokes I could make. Especially since that picture is damn near showing some.

    I better not.
