헬레나 본햄 카터, 눈다랑어 앞에서 옷 벗다 Helena Bonham Carter strips off with a tuna in ad campaign against overfishing
Taking the plunge: Helena Bonham Carter is backing a drive to create more marine reserves
스위니 토드'의 여주인공자 팀 버튼의 아내(정정합니다)인 헬레나 본햄 카터(Helena Bonham Carter)가 전 세계의 눈다랑어들을 위해 옷을 벗었다. 헬레나가 눈다랑어를 다리 사이로 끌어안고 있는 이 사진은 보는 사람에 따라서는 자칫 징그럽거나 무서워 보일 수도 있다. 하지만 적어도 이 사진의 목적만큼은 선하다. 멸종 위기에 있는 어류를 보호하기 위해 블루 마린 파운데이션(Blue Marine Foundation)에서 벌이는 '피쉬러브'(FishLove)캠페인의 초대를 받고 동참한 것. 피쉬러브 측에선 특히 헬레나가 어류공포증(ichthyophobia)를 가지고 있는데도 불구하고 초대에 임해준 데 감사를 표했다. 그 외에도 그루퍼, 유럽 뱀장어 등 고급 음식재료 군에 속하는 어류들이 대부분 멸종 위기에 처해있다. 그레타 스카치, 레나 제거 등도 피쉬러브 캠페인에 동참한 바 있다. 허핑턴포스트 |
The star of The King’s Speech, A Room With A View and Harry Potter revealed that she is fish-phobic — but still agreed to be the latest volunteer to bare all to highlight the threat to ocean life from overfishing.
Bonham Carter, 48, was asked to get involved by her friend Greta Scacchi, who was photographed with a cod in the first of a series of images by different photographers, entitled Fishlove.
In the latest shoot, Bonham Carter worked with photographer John Swannell. She said: “I’m actually very phobic about fish so when Greta asked me to be photographed naked with a 27kg tuna I was more worried about touching it than getting my kit off. Having said that, I conquered my fears and by the end of the morning we’d truly bonded. He will be my Valentine.”
The actress, who last year split up with film director Tim Burton, spoke today before a meeting at the House of Commons, where 100 conservation charities were calling on ministers to declare more marine reserves in the British Overseas Territories.

The actress said: “There is a new movement, spearheaded by the Blue Marine Foundation and others, encouraging the Government to invest in creating marine reserves — fish refuges really — where they are safe from the ravages of industrial-scale fishing and where they can regenerate.
“We all have a responsibility to try and return our world to the next generation in the state we inherited it in, not worse. It would be a sad thing if in our dotage we’d be describing a tuna fish to our grandchildren like we do a dodo today.”
About 85 per cent of global fish stocks are depleted or over-exploited.
The Government is considering plans to create three of the largest marine reserves in the world around the British overseas territories of Pitcairn in the Pacific, Ascension in the Atlantic, and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands in the South Atlantic
The last Labour government protected the seas around the Chagos archipelago in the Indian Ocean in 2010. Barack Obama has declared an even larger reserve around the Hawaiian islands in the Pacific.
Today, experts will tell MPs about the threat and what Britain could do.
Charles Clover, chairman of the Blue Marine Foundation, said he thought the new picture of Bonham Carter would rank alongside images from her most famous films in future. “I propose a new Bafta for conserving fish,” he added.
The actress’s latest film, Disney’s Cinderella, opens in March
