Does Lisa of The Simpsons Have An Eco-Sin As Well?

The Simpsons 400th Episode Block Party - Arrivals

Lisa Simpson is one of TV’s most famous vegetarian cartoon characters (along with Apu, Kwik-E-Mart owner on the same show).

It’s no secret she loves animals and won’t eat them and she’s also doing her best to be eco-friendly, encouraging her family to do so as well. Both Maggie and her grandpa use “disposable diapers.”

National Geographic took time to interview her and her views on the environment. Although she likes animals, she may have an eco-sin and harbor ill will towards one type of creature:

What is your favorite (or least favorite) endangered animal?
I love all creatures, great and small… but if one had to go, I’d say mosquitoes. I mean, they can really ruin an Earth Day. Oh, now I feel so guilty.

Oh, well. I guess no one is perfect. Be sure to read the rest of the funny interview. Hope Apu gets his spotlight soon. He’s long overdue.

Should Leona Lewis Be Chatting With Todd Oldham?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, September 29th, 2008 in Fashion.

Todd Oldman Book Signing

All of you, who decorated your dorm room with Todd Oldham furnishings a few years ago, listen up! Did you know that the maker of ever so affordable fashion is vegan? Well, you should at least know the items you’re purchasing with his tag are.

Todd Oldham is a fashion designer that has used his brilliance to create clothing and furnishings without the use of leather or other animal products. He’s also vegan and an animal rights activist and supports other humane causes, such as housing programs for those living with HIV and Aids.

He was fired after 3 months of working in the alterations department at a Polo Ralph Lauren boutique in Dallas, but then decided he could do better and well…the rest is history.

Oldham currently oversees clothing design for Old Navy, a division of Gap.

We think pop star Leonis Lewis should be giving him a call for a few pointers as she is in the beginnings of starting her own cruelty free fashion line.

Gotta run now. Old Navy’s got a clearance sale that ends tonight!

When referring to his powers, he prefers to be called a “mystifier” rather than “psychic.” He is reported to have a collection of bent spoons from stars such as John Lennon and the Spice Girls.
