Sarah Palin To PETA: Don’t Be Throwing Snowballs At Me!

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, December 25th, 2008 in Politicians.

Vice Presidential Candidate, Governor Sarah Palin, spoke to a huge crowd at the Henderson Pavilion in Henderson, Nevada

Don’t make her call Joe the Plumber!

Remember that Holiday Snowball Throwing game we told you about where you could pelt fur wearing folks for points?

PETA, the organization who created  the game, received a phone call a couple of days ago from someone claiming to be from Governor Palin’s office. The caller demanded PETA take the game down or face a lawsuit.

Governor Palin, an avid hunter and a foe to many animal rights supporters, is just one of the several celebrities making a guest appearance, including fur wearing Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

PETA blogged about this incident and used the opportunity to further poke fun at Palin:

“In real life, the moose and other animals Ms. Palin blows to smithereens don’t stand a chance. But, hey, our game is virtual and nonviolent. To be honest, I’m not quite sure why Sarah is so mad about the game anyways. Wielding a gun and decked out in a sexy bikini and pageant ribbon, I’d think she’d be quite proud of how PETA’s portrayed her.”

No, no, no, you just don’t understand, PETA. If you had thrown snowballs at her from airplanes, then she would be proud. But don’t take their word for it. Have a look. Sexy? Yay or Nay?

After a consult with PETA’s legal team, it was determined the game is “protected parody” or “fair game” (no pun intended) and the game is here to stay.

Snowballs away!

Premiere Of

Shortly after the Madonna-Guy Ritchie split, we learned that Madge set forth some pretty strict rules about what the children could and could not do while visiting Guy, including only eating organic, vegetarian, macrobiotic food.

Now Guy is paying her back, but it might be the children who are suffering in the process.

As part of the deal for getting to crash at Guy’s UK mansion he previously banned her from, she must behave-no temper tantrums or bullying the staff. Fair enough. But she also must allow the children to eat a “traditional” Christmas dinner of ham and turkey!

For a parent who’s been insisting on organic, vegetarian food, this has to be her worst nightmare. Not to mention the possible physical reactions that might happen to the children when eating greasy pig and bird after months of eating wholesome, organic vegetarian food.

Not to worry, though. Madonna is already planning her next move. As soon as she arrived in the UK, a source said the first thing she did was met with her divorce lawyer.

It’s probably safe to say this Christmas dinner deal will be annulled by next year.

Merry Christmas And Enjoy Joaquin Phoenix’s Holiday Video

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, December 25th, 2008 in Actors, Videos.

Rise and shine all you who got up early to look for Santa this morning.

Can’t believe this pretty boy face is retiring from the big screen! Joaquin Phoenix stars in a Christmas video for PETA UK. The holiday jingle played in the background is bright and cheery as he passes the produce, but soon takes a very different tune in the turkey section.

Have a merry and meatless Christmas!
