An anti-fur campaigner doused Lindsay Lohan in flour on Friday evening in Paris People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals announced in a statement.

The organization said the actress was “showered” with cooking powder, while at a Paris nightclub.

“The actor, who was on her way into the VIP room on the Champs-Elysées just after 1 AM early Saturday, had an entire bag of flour dumped over her head by a French fur foe who shouted, ‘Lindsay Lohan—fur hag!’” PETA said in a statement released to Access Hollywood.

They claim the actress, who was in London earlier this week with girlfriend Samantha Ronson, before moving on to Paris alongside the celebrity DJ, wore multiple fur coats this week, angering activists.

“Lindsay Lohan might be able to ignore images of bloody animals skinned alive for their pelts, but we hope a dash of flour will help her rise to the occasion and forsake fur once and for all.” PETA Europe’s Robbie LeBlanc said in the statement.

But Samantha defended Lindsay in a blog post on her MySpace page on Saturday, attacking PETA for their supporter’s methods.

“Today I’m pissed at the bag of flour thrown on Lindsay last night. Not because I got powdered down, but because the girl who threw it acted like an animal herself,” she wrote. “It’s a pity that some groups feel the need to assault people as opposed to fighting with words. I don’t wear fur, but I don’t think I have the right to ATTACK those who do. No one has that right.”

Samantha suggested the organization stick to words rather than actions in the future.

“PETA should focus their efforts on educating people on what they believe are injustices instead of seeking press via harassing those in the limelight,” she concluded.
