Kim Kardashian facing anti-fur protest at DASH store led by swimsuit model Joanna Krupa



She was flour-bombed during an anti-fur protest just over a week ago, and now Kim Kardashian needs to watch her back yet again.
The 31-year-old reality star's Calabasas-based store, DASH, has become the target of yet another protest organisation.
Swimsuit models Joanna Krupa and Katie Cleary, backed by social activism site Care 2, plan on presenting the Kardashian family with a petition signed by 140,000 people demanding that they stop selling furs in store and online.

The stunning animal rights activists plan on protesting at the Kardashians' flagship store tomorrow.

 

In a statement to RadarOnline.com, 32-year-old Polish American model Krupa said: 'One of the most influential families in the entertainment industry that could help give animals a voice on a large scale are the Kardashians.
'As a fashion-forward family with their clothing line in stores all over the US, they have the power to influence millions of people around the world.'

The group has decided to target DASH after Kim announced her intention to relocate their store to Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood.

She wrote on her blog: 'This weekend Kourt, Khloe, and I all met with designer Jeff Andrews to start working on the new DASH LA store.

'Since we've opened DASH stores in Miami and NYC we decided that we want to re-vamp our west coast store and open a brand new LA location!'

Though she was once excited by the re-launch, she might not be as happy now that she knows her pet project is about to be tarnished by more drama.

This latest indignity comes hot on the heels of Kim's flour bombing by a woman believed to be an animal rights activist last month.
Though PETA has denied the woman was working with them, Kim's younger sister, Khloe, has pulled her support from their campaign.

She did not take too kindly to anyone calling her elder sibling a 'fur hag.'
