A PETA campaign with Sam Asghari can be understood as a swipe at his famous ex Britney Spears.
Sam Asghari (29) apparently makes fun of his failed marriage to Britney Spears (42) in a campaign by the animal protection organization PETA. The posters read: “Some loves last” and “You can’t buy love.” In August it was announced that the actor had filed for divorce from the singer after just 14 months of marriage.
“You can’t buy love”
Months after the well-known animal rights organization called Britney Spears “toxic” for buying a new puppy, her ex Sam Asghari is now reinforcing the message of adopting dogs rather than buying them. The 29-year-old shared the campaign images and insights into the shoot. In one picture he can be seen smiling with a dog in his arms, along with the slogan: “Some loves last” – a clear allusion to his separation from Spears. In another picture he is lying topless next to a dog and it says: “You can’t buy love, but you can adopt it.”
Big heart and big muscles
The organization’s homepage says Asghari wanted the campaign to show “his big heart (and big muscles) for dogs” and spread the important message “that you should always have your animal companions adopted and neutered.” In an accompanying video, the actor says he bought his beloved dog Porsha, but now that he’s learned about the homeless animal overpopulation crisis, he’ll never buy a dog again: “Every time an animal is bought at a pet store or at If an animal is bought from a breeder, it loses the chance of finding a loving home in the animal shelter,” he emphasizes. According to PETA, around 70 million dogs and cats are homeless in the USA.
Separation after six years of relationship
Sam Asghari regularly shares shots of his Doberman Pinscher – which was originally a gift to Spears after their engagement in 2021 – on Instagram. After the split, he kept Porsha, the singer and the former couple’s other four dogs.
In mid-August it was announced that the couple had separated after six years of dating. Asghari filed for divorce after just 14 months of marriage. The singer then posted that she was “a little shocked.” This is Spears’ third failed marriage. In 2004 she was married to her childhood friend Jason Alexander (41) for 55 hours and from 2004 to 2007 to Kevin Federline (45), with whom she has her sons Sean Preston (18) and Jayden James (17).
