Moby, Tobey Maguire Give Props To Prop 2

Several celebrities made an appearance at a fundraiser for Prop 2— a California state ballot measure that would outlaw confining crates and cages used in the factory farming of hens, veal calves and pregnant pigs. The measure is sponsored by the Humane Society of the U.S., Farm Sanctuary and other animal welfare groups.
Moby showed up to perform and Tobey Maguire put his two cents in as well.
“To me, it’s a no-brainer,” Maguire said. “I’m a near-vegan. I eat like a vegan.”
Ellen DeGeneres and her new wife Portia de Rossi were supporters as well, Ellen emphasizing that the move isn’t about taking care of animals, “It’s just making things a little better for them.” If you remember, the two of them provided their wedding guest with a completely vegan feast, including vegan red velvet cake.
