A $7,500 fur coat Mariah Carey donated to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has been lost by the United Parcel Service.The coat was en route to Mongolia, where it was to be given to refugees to help them keep warm this winter.
Animal-lover Carey sent two floor-length mink coats she received from a rich admirer to PETA bosses, asking them to donate the furs to the charity's annual winter drive to help clothe homeless and needy refugees around the world.
According to PETA sources, one coat was on its way to Switzerland, where it was to be packaged in a sealed container bound for Mongolia to be included in a Swiss Animal Protection Society drive -- but the coat never arrived.
UPS tells PETA the coat cannot be located and is lost. After filing a claim, the anti-fur charity will be reimbursed the full $7,500.

OH, for goodness sakes. All she had to do was slip the coat out the window of her limo to a homeless person on her way to a club or out shopping. But that's not as sexy as jetting the coat off to Mongolia -- of all places -- via Switzerland. Is she actually so self-deluded that she thinks she's doing something laudable... rather than laughable?
