People reports that Brooke Hogan hit Twitter this weekend to defend herself from critics who claim that it wasn't right for Brooke to show the nude PETA photo to her father. The new black and white PETA poster features Brooke Hogan naked in an open cage.
In a recent tweet, Brooke Hogan responded to critics. "Im SO sick of people saying me and my dad are in some perverted relationship," said Hogan. "Go home and do your own thing! Stop picking on me!"
Although Brooke Hogan has her critics, father Hulk Hogan took the new PETA poster in stride by posing with the ad last week at Miami's Cafeina Lounge.

The actress was all for fashion on Day 1 of the Lakme Fashion Week.
Ayesha Takia who was down with flu still came all the way to watch her designer friend Archana Kocchar's show on day one of the Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai.
Ayesha was accompanied by her mother and sister. Clad in a black anarkali designed by Kocchar, the actress stayed away from making any comments on Anna's crusade against corruption.
"I would not like to make any political statement" was her reply as she refrained from making any comments on the issue.
The actress who did look a tad weak due to the fever seems to have mellowed down.
We remember Ayesha had lashed out at Raj Thackeray and his party, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), for attacking her father in law Abu Azmi in the Maharashtra legislature for taking his oath as a legislator in Hindi about a year back.
Guess the actress didn't want to leave any room for any kind of 'political' controversy this time around!
Meanwhile 'Fashion' actor Arjan Bajwa revealed he will be going on a candle march today evening to support Anna Hazare.

Everyone wants a part of Salman Khan. After all, the actor is known to give success after success these days. And Karan Johar is more than keen to work with the Khan.
It can be remembered that Karan Johar tried very hard - and pulled every string he posiibly could - to get Salman on his show 'Koffee with Karan'. Apparently, Salman Khan was not easily persuaded or convinced and remained faraway from both - the coffee and Karan.
Now, Karan Johar, we hear has managed to get Salman to sign on the dotted line for a film he's producing. To be directed by Rensil D'Silva, Salman, we hear, has given a nod to the project and KJo couldn't be happier.
In fact, if sources are to be believed, he's recommending many directors that they sign Salman in the lead roles if they are looking at commercial profits. Wonder how well will this act of KJo's go down with Shah Rukh Khan, who ultimately isn't a part of Karan's 'Student of the Year' film!

Bans, protests and a long weekend may have affected the business of director Prakash Jha's new offering Aarakshan, but despite all the problems, the movie about caste-based reservations in the Indian education system has managed to earn Rs 25 crore in four days. Trade analysts are hoping this will pick up in the second week.
Released on Friday, the film starring Amitabh Bachchan, Saif Ali Khan, Manoj Bajpayee and Deepika Padukone, is described as a well-crafted film on the need for education. The film was said to be made for Rs 42 crore.
"The occupancy stayed around 60-70 per cent. The film did not release in Uttar Pradesh. The response in Delhi was average. On Saturday-Sunday cops had stopped the screening of the film in Gurgaon due to security issues, so it did affect the business," said a source from PVR Cinemas.
Yogesh Raizada, corporate head (Cinemas) of Wave Cinemas, said: The response to the film was not as good as we expected. We were expecting that the occupancy would be 100 percent as it was a long weekend but the occupancy has been 70 to 80 per cent. It might be because most of the people went on vacation. The film is likely to pick up in the second week."
Prakash Jha had anticipated losses when the film was banned in three states -- Andhra Pradesh, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh for fear of anti-Dalit comments in the movie.
Though the ban was lifted in Andhra Pradesh on Saturday and in Punjab on Monday, it is still on in Uttar Pradesh, which has the maximum Hindi speaking audience.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the Uttar Pradesh government to file its reply by Thursday to filmmaker Prakash Jha's petition seeking a stay of the ban.
"The film did not release in Uttar Pradesh as a result there was a 50 per cent drop in our business," said Puneet Sahay, senior manager for programming and operations at Spice Cinemas, Noida.
"We were running old films and it's occupancy was also around 25 per cent. We were looking upto Aarakshan as it was a long weekend but due to the ban we have indeed suffered losses."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie disappoint hundreds of Scottish fans

Scottish fans of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie described their disappointment today after the movie star couple, who chartered an entire train to travel from London, shunned waiting crowds and sent a Pitt-lookalike to fool them.
Fans gathered at Glasgow Central station yesterday in the hope of catching a glimpse of the Hollywood A-listers, who traveled to the Scottish city to film parts of Pitts' latest movie "World War Z."
Pitt, 47, Jolie, 36, and kids Maddox, nine, Pax, seven, Zahara, six, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne arrived at the station in a specially-chartered train, but dodged waiting fans by climbing straight into a blacked-out Mercedes waiting on the platform, Scottish newspaper the Daily Record reported.
A Pitt-lookalike was sent down the platform to try fool onlookers - some of whom had waited hours for a glimpse of the family, according to the newspaper.
A large area of the station was cordoned off and a 14-vehicle motorcade was allowed on the platform to meet the Jolie-Pitts and their huge entourage of security guards and film crews.
Lauren Campbell, 19, told the Scotsman newspaper the Jolie-Pitts arrival was "an anti-climax."
She said, "I'm really disappointed. Everybody was here to see Brad and he didn't even wave. It was totally disappointing."
Pitt will spend the next two weeks filming scenes for his new zombie movie in Glasgow, parts of which were transformed to resemble Philadelphia, complete with yellow taxis and traffic lights, US-style road signs and American cars.
