She's supposedly a vegetarian and is friends with Walk the Line co-star Joaquin Phoenix who is a huge animal rights activist and vegan. She knew it was an animal skin.and she spent $4,000 on it? PETA is very happy. I don't know what she's going to do with it, but at least she'll stop carrying it.

After all, who I am doesn't stop at vegan.
