Kanye West's "Famous"

video

gained lots of attention and much criticism when it was released in June.

The 10-minute video features 12 naked sleeping wax figures in likenesses of celebrities with whom West has had connections. Taylor Swift, Ray J, Donald Trump and George W. Bush were among those pictured motionless in an oversized bed.

But a parody version of the video is much different.

A 1-minute video released Tuesday shows 10 Instagram-famous dogs sleeping in matching pajamas.

The spoof, created by (RED), features canines like

and

in a promotional effort to encourage sales of the

(BEDHEAD)RED red-and-white-checkered dog pajamas

.

Proceeds from the pajama sales go toward the fight against AIDS.

The dog pajamas, which are made of cotton and spandex, are on sale for $28 until Dec. 31. The set includes a sweater and a hat.

BedHead, the manufacturer of the pajamas, has already contributed to (RED) by donating funds to provide 50,000 days of life-saving HIV medication.
