Should Ben Lee Be De-Throned?
Written by Vegetarian Star on September 22nd, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.
Australian singer-songwriter Ben Lee was voted one of the World’s Sexiest Vegetarians earlier this year, but a technicality could call for a recount.
A recount? He’s in Australia, not Florida! But maybe there is a good reason for this. It seems that even though the “Catch My Disease” singer hasn’t eaten red meat in about a decade, he still eats fish. World’s Sexiest Pescatarian?
“I’m not sure I’m technically a vegetarian,” he said in an interview with the Sunday Mail.
“I mean, I was totally vegetarian for 10 years and I don’t eat red meat and I try to limit my consumption of animal products, but I don’t know if I technically qualify. I eat fish.”
“I don’t know if they’re (PETA) really judging by sexiness or just by the fact you are roughly, vaguely a vegetarian.”
Hmm…What do you guys think? Are we talking about complete vegetarians or are the occasional fish eaters sexy enough for PETA?

Sorry, dude, but you don’t qualify at all, as you aren’t a vegetarian. Fish is not vegetarian, as it is the flesh of a dead animal. It may be enough for PETA, but it isn’t enough for me.

VeggieTart, please turn in your membership card. You use “dead” as a qualifier. So, if he ate a live fish, he’d be okay? Also, a fish is not an animal, dumbass.
