I quit! Kim Kardashian's flour bomber IS a PETA activist...as furious Khloe cuts ties with 'lying' animal rights group
Fuming: Khloe posted this statement to her website following the revelation
Christina Cho once grabbed a microphone from designer Donna Karan at a Women's Conference in order to rant about the use of fur in fashion, and won an award from the organisation in 2010.
It was believed that the person who pelted 31-year-old Kim at her perfume launch had shouted 'fur hag' in the process, but PETA told TMZ shortly afterwards that they were not in any way involved.
Embarrassed: Kim was left humiliated when the incident took place at an event to launch her perfume
Shock: Kim looked horrified as she was doused in flour but brushed off the incident
A representative said: 'It was not [us]. We were given the video by an anti-fur activist on the scene.However they added: 'PETA has tried everything from polite letters to public protests, but Kim Kardashian has not been moved by the news that animals are beaten, electrocuted, and even skinned alive for real fur garments.
'Whoever threw that flour may reach her when our polite appeals did not.'
Identified: Activist Christina Cho has been involved in stunts for the animal rights group before
Under arrest: Christine is arrested, placed in the back of a police car and driven away
A picture of two foxes was included, along with the caption: 'Kim: These babies miss their mother. Is she on your back?'
The revelation has led Khloe to fume about their 'bullying' and say vehemently that she will 'no longer support PETA'.

Invading the stage: Christina once grabbed a microphone from fashion designer Donna Karan at a Women's Conference
'As you all know, I don’t condone violence and bullying and what happened last Thursday was just that. I am absolutely disgusted by their behavior. Everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and opinions — I personally don’t wear fur but that doesn’t mean I am going to force my views on anyone else, ESPECIALLY by violating them.'
Supporter: Khloe once posed nude in an anti-fur campaign for the organisation, and Cho in body paint at another protest
The 27-year-old added that she was 'proud' of her sister for the way she handled the incident, which happened at the London hotel in Los Angeles on Thursday.
Khloe said: 'I am a very proud sister right now, because Kim handled last week’s incident like a champ. She got cleaned up and was back out there in a matter of minutes. Go Kimmie!
'We all need to practice what we preach. I will still continue to NOT wear fur, but I will no longer support PETA. Bullying and harassment is NEVER a solution, and I won’t be a part of any organization that thinks otherwise.'

A PETA representative told MailOnline: 'We have no confirmation on who it was.'

Yay Christina Cho! Fur is some of the worst animal torture that there is...and all so some pathetic woman can feel good about herself. Talk about low self-esteem. Animals are tortured beyond belief by the hundreds for Kim's jackets alone. Some day her cruel, ugly inside will manifest itself on her outside and she will no longer be beautiful. Ugly on the inside always makes its way out.
