Miami Ink's Ami James Shows His Famous Tattoos in PETA Anti-Fur Ad

In addition to being the star of the hit reality series Miami Ink, Ami James is the owner of one of the hottest bars in Miami, Love/Hate, and a legend in the tattoo world. Now he's showing us some skin and showing off his famous tattoos—alongside the tagline "Ink, Not Mink"—as part of PETA's anti-fur campaign.

Creating amazing art and tattoos isn't the only thing that Ami knows a thing or two about. He also knows about the realities of the fur industry and knows he would never support an industry that tortures and kills animals in the name of fashion.

Every year, millions of mink, foxes, raccoons, dogs, and cats are strangled, electrocuted, and even skinned alive by the fur industry. This is not something Ami will support in any way.

In PETA's interview with Ami, he tells us, "I was watching TV and then all of a sudden there was something about Roberto Cavalli's fashion and I saw people wearing cheetah furs and all sorts of crazy things like that … to the point where I got asked to do a Cavalli vodka design and I said, 'F*** no, I'm not doing it. I'll never do it.'"
