Vegetarian Star

“I’m a great subscriber to Chrissie Hynde’s perspective that when you’re working for a social cause, the danger isn’t in going far enough or feeling embarrassed or that it’s in bad taste. You’ve got to really push the envelope. Animals are in desperate trouble in the fur farms, in the laboratories.”

—-Ingrid Newkirk, President of People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), when asked if there were any animal rights campaigns she regretted during an interview with Willamette Week.

So what if she can’t cook vegetarian? Victoria Beckham is doing her part by taking a stand against fur.

The Posh Spice is often seen around the town with hubby David in what looks to be fur, but according to a source, when it comes to these types of fashions, Victoria’s a complete phony.

“Victoria never wears real fur,” the source said. “Lots of her designer friends now make faux fur jackets.”

She’s recently launched a custom fitted clothing range and has pledged not to use real fur in her fashions. This of course, is a stark contrast to another celebrity British female, nicknamed in some gossip blogs as “Liz Furley,” who teamed up with U.S. fur company Blackglama.

So we’ll try to lay off Victoria for her chef limitations. Anyone can learn to cook. Taking a moral stance shows true genius.

Daryl Hannah is making a very different type of Splash from the movie where she starred as a mermaid in 1984.

She marked her 48th birthday, December 3rd, by joining the crew of “Whale Wars” on the Steve Irwin boat to cruise the seas and attempt to stop Japanese whale hunters. (And looking darn fine for a woman near 50, we might add.)

Whale hunting is illegal, but the hunters claim to be doing so for research purposes, which gives them a loophole around the rule. Apparently, Hannah is riding with a winning team. Last year, although the hunters aimed to kill 1,000 whales, they only succeeded in doing so for about half those numbers, thanks to the activists hindering their efforts.

In the past, the crew has attempted to thwart hunters’ efforts through non-violent methods, such as throwing stink bombs with rancid butter on the hunters’ boats and obstructing their pathways in the sea.
