Sienna Spiro wants animals to be more than just Visitors in your home.
She’s teamed up with PETA UK for a campaign urging people to adopt animals from shelters rather than buying them. “Animals have always been very, very important to me. … My dogs have always been my best friends,” Sienna says in the campaign video, in which she plays with adorable dogs and cats at an animal shelter in North London.
“One thing I hope people take away from this is definitely to adopt and not shop … and maybe not just go for a kitten or a puppy,” she adds. “Maybe go for one that’s had an amazing history. There’s thousands and thousands of amazing animals that really need homes.”
In the video, she sports her ’60s retro look of a minidress and wingtip eyeliner. But when she’s “off duty,” she tells Variety, she doesn’t walk around with a bouffant and boots — and nobody recognizes her.
“I tried the hair for the first time, and it made me feel like such an elevated version of myself,” she adds. “Sometimes having hair that’s different from my everyday hair, or when I put my boots on, allows me to kind of step into something and have a level of confidence and separation from the way I felt writing [my] songs. I’d never wear heels in everyday life.”
