Oscar-nominted Kate Winslet has come under fire once again for her nude photoshoot in the December issue of Vanity Fair Magazine. After being slammed for alleged photoshopped pictures in the mag, Kate, a devoted animal rights activist, is in trouble for using real fur in the Vanity Fair photoshoot.

PETA contacted the actress, who in the past has spoken out against wearing fur, and informed her that what she thought was fake fur was in fact the real thing.

Vanity Fair has since apologized to the five-time Oscar-nominated actress, blaming a “miscommunication” for the fur error.

“Although there were both real and fake furs on set, the fur used in the photograph is real,” a spokesman for the magazine said. “We thought Miss Winslet was aware of this and we’re sorry for the miscommunication.”

A statement from Kate’s rep maintains that the actress believed the fur was faux. “She thought it was false. There was apparently false fur there and real fur there, and she definitely understood it was false. Kate never wears fur. She’s very, very firm on that.”
