chrissie_hynde.jpgCommitted vegan and not-afraid-to-get-her-hands-bloody type Chrisse Hynde (left, click image to enlarge) has recently done a Q&A with the delightfully-monikered Fish & Chimps, PETA Europe's very own blog.

The conversation doesn't contain a great many surprises for those familar with The Pretenders frontwoman's career as an activist, although it is interesting to hear her restate that her music career is of secondary importance in her life:

"I consider myself an animal activist first and my music as more of a hobby that gives me a platform to fight for animals."

Hynde goes on to select the highlights of her life as an animal activist and share her views on PETA's "provactive" tactics, while over on PETA's main site are a couple of new Pretenders tracks - from new album Break Up The Concrete - available for streaming.
