Päivärinta has been a strong proponent of animal rights since she was a child.

Themes about animal rights have been featured regularly in Päivärinta's music and videos.[4] [5] [6] She contributed to the album Building On Tradition by Andy McCoy.[7] She also appeared as a regular in the TV-series Djurens hjältar broadcast on TV3.[8]
