Brigitte Bardot was
born on 28th
September 1934 in Paris. She
is a French actress and singer, activist for animal rights, founder and leader
of the foundation which bears her name.
She is world-famous, a star, muse
of the greatest artists of our time, an emblem of the emancipation of women.
"BB" is one of the most
famous French artists and was the biggest star of European cinema after the War.
She put an end to her career in 1973 to devote herself to the defense of
animals.
In 1976, after seeing a documentary
about seal pup culling, she started a major international campaign. This amazing woman said during an interview: “If I'm here, it’s not for tourism or to be photographed but to
find a solution to the problem and I beg the Canadian government to find a
solution to this problem. [...] We must tell you that, even if seal hunting is
over 300 years, traditions change and only idiots never change their minds.”
In 1986, Bardot created in
Saint-Tropez the Brigitte Bardot Foundation which is an organization to protect
animals.
She said: “I gave my beauty and my youth to men. I
give my wisdom and my experience and the best of myself to animals”.
In my opinion, Brigitte Bardot is
an amazing woman because she fights for something dear to her heart and is not
afraid of people’s opinion about her. She is a role model for all Europeans.
