Carm lent me this lovely coat she made after whacking the bear that was stalking her back yard.

Haha, you caught me! I DID sew together several 'coon skin caps. How'd you guess?

Lorraine Bracco calmly awaits her escort into a high profile PETA event.

(Kind of like when TMZ caught video of Puffy, Diddy, whatever going into a PETA event wearing a lamb-hair sweater...so touching Diddy...so touching...)

What Becomes a Psychiatrist-to-the-Mob Most.

Do you know how long I had to listen to Tony whine about how no one understand his black little mobster heart to afford this coat?

Fur-geddabowdit!

"So I told those little Ewok bastards, 'If you keep peepin' in on me and Han, I'm gonna turn you all into coats!' And I ain't been back on Endor since", said the retired Princess Leia. And then she smirked that Rebel Alliance smirk.

Like it? Such a deal! It fell off the back of a chinchilla truck.

PETA, Schmeta

I been around the mob so long, I think it's okay to wear dead animals.

Oh c**p, here comes PETA! Tony! Tony!!

"It was a gift from Tony. And in the right-hand pocket, here, are Paulie's walnuts."

Her new series will be called "Rachel Ray: 2020".

"Acrylic just doesn't mop up the blood from a trunk like real fur."

I can haz cheeseburger?

"Listen, my butt wouldn't be the only thing looking fat, if it weren't for this $20,000 coat and all the work I've had done."

An awkward moment as Ms. Bracco mistakenly thought she was a celebrity and was asked to move to her seat in the back row.

Taken as Lorraine waited until the clock struck 2:30, after which she immediately proceeded to smash up the joint.

With time on her hands since "The Sopranos" wrapped, Ms. Bracco fills her days with her two favorite hobbies: trappin' critters and applying Instant Tan bronzer to her face.

How long can I sit here before I end up peeing on this coat

Unwilling to to go to the ladies room for fear of losing her prime seat, Ms. Bracco displays her "I'm making number two" face.

Chinese Dog Fur: It's the new black.

Here Ms. Bracco sits, blissfully unaware that her dog's been doing the "tripod scooch" all over her pristine white polar bear coat.

A famous, mature woman (who used to be superhot in the '80s) proudly wears a fur coat. Totally uncontroversial outside of the wacko PETA community. PETA being the group that murders thousands of innocent dogs every year especially if they deign them to be of the "wrong" breed. If Michael Vick had murdered as many innocent dogs in his life as PETA does in a month, he would have received the Death Penalty.

DonKool I totally agree. PETA is horrible! Frankly, I don't see what the big deal is by wearing a fur coat. I am a fur coat wearing, suv driving, non carpooling, do not recycle, proud AMERICAN. The last time I checked, it was still a person's right to do all of these things. I am anxiously waiting for the day that some self righteous PETA jerk comes up to me and tells me how bad of a person I am for wearing my fur; I'll give them the same treatment as I give to the Greenpeace people. I wish they would use their energy to save PEOPLE.

Not only did I kill the chinchillas but I ate their livers with fava beans and a nice chianti.

Like a deer caught in the headlights...

I loved my pets so much, I just had to keep them with me after they passed on!

Excellent points, DonKool and Moodring. Pay no attention to those nattering ninnies from PETA and Greenpeace, they wouldn't know good fashion if it bit their behinds. I'm proud to wear the carcass of any animal I choose. I've even written this little ditty about my wardrobe:

Some men hunt for sport,
Others hunt for food.
The only thing I'm hunting for
Is an outfit that looks good.
See my vest, see my vest,
Made from real gorilla chest.
Feel this sweater, there's no better
Than authentic Irish Setter.
See this hat, 'twas my cat.
My evening wear, vampire bat.
These white slippers are albino
African endangered rhino.
Grizzly bear underwear,
Turtle necks I've got my share.
Beret of poodle on my noodle it shall rest
Try my red robin suit,
It comes one breast or two...
See my vest, See my vest, See my vest.
Like my loafers, former gophers,
It was that or skin my chauffeurs,
But a greyhound fur tuxedo would be best...
So let's prepare these dogs,
Kill two for matching clogs!
See my vest, See my vest, See my vest!

Fur? NO!! I...Ah, I've been saving all my hair from when I shave from when I shave just for this. You like?

Why do certain subjects bring out strange unfunny people who normally don't post here? Once there was a purported MD frothing about obesity, and people arguing about their parenting skillz, and now we've got folks who would otherwise be posting right wings, PRO AMURRICA!!! diatribes to the political stories.

Go away. We gather here for the funny.

That aside, the picture doesn't inspire much humor. Just an unflattering angle and ugly fur coat on a woman I thought looked really attractive in The Sopranos.

I NEED this fur along with my turtleneck dress - after baking a little too long in the tanning bed, for some reason I can't naturally keep myself warm anymore.

Yes Moodring, it is a person's right to be an arogant a--hat but it would be nice if people thought of other people, and the planet for half a second too. People will have nowhere to live if everyone believed that line of thought.

Wanna pet my beaver?

Lorraine Bracco blushes a becoming shade of orange as she realizes she confused being a seat-filler with being a seat-WARMER. Her embarrassment is compounded by her decision to dress for the part in turtleneck and fur coat.

Lorraine Bracco listens to the devil on her right shoulder that says "wear fur."

I have to say, I agree with those who have mentioned how uninspiring this photo is. In this week alone, Paris Hilton dressed up for her movie premiere like she was getting an Oscar, Jennifer Esposito went to an AmFar event dressed in a rainbow-colored gown with a bodice that inexplicably resembled a lacy black bra, Fergie's new ads for MAC cosmetics actually don't look like her AT ALL, random celebs are making political endorsements, and Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey are out shilling for what looks to be the WORST romantic comedy in years.

How can we not have better pics to write captions about?

Am I smiling? I can't feel my face.

Asked pointedly which door she chose in the Chatological Humor poll of August 15, 2006, Ms. Bracco coyly replied with a doff of her coat off one shoulder.
