Fur protesters greet opera singer
Updated on 27 December 2008
Katherine Jenkins arrived at Harrods to a chorus of boos as dozens of anti-fur campaigners protested against the Welsh singer's decision to open the store's winter sale.
Protesters chanted "shame on Catherine" as the mezzo soprano arrived at the historic Knightsbridge store by horse-drawn carriage. The boos were eventually drowned out by claps and cheers from bargain hunters queuing outside as Jenkins - wearing a black dress with white detail - was ushered into the store by chairman Mohamed al Fayed.
The queues started to form outside the shop overnight, a Harrods spokesman said. Further cheers were heard as Catherine began the traditional annual countdown to mark the start of the sales.
