The Toronto Film Festival premiere of Pharrell Williams’ LEGO-fied animated biopic Piece By Piece on Tuesday night Sept. 10th was interrupted by an animal rights protester who stormed the stage during a Q&A session after the screening of the film.

Pharrell Williams was interrupted by a PETA activist during the premiere of his new Lego biopic Piece by Piece at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10th. The multi hyphenate artist was in the middle of a post-screening Q&A when the campaigner approached the stage to protest against his use of fur and animal skins in his work as Louis Vuitton’s men’s creative director.  The activist held a sign that read “Pharrell: Stop Supporting Killing Animals for Fashion,” and shouted at Williams.
