Pet Shop Boys asked to for name change:

Written By: Sam on April 13, 2009 2 Comments


The band has recently been asked by the infamous PETA to change their name to something that would encourage much more friendly behavior towards animals. PETA supposedly asked Pet Shop Boys to change their name to Rescue Shelter Boys. A statement was written on the band’s official website: “PETA has written to the Pet Shop Boys with a request they are unable to agree to but nonetheless think raises an issue worth thinking about.” I bet whoever wrote that just said it so that PETA would lay low at least for a little while longer. What would the point of Pet Shop Boys changing their name anyway? Does PETA actually think that the band’s name encourages the purchasing of animals from pet shops?
