Natalie Portman Mocks Ben Stiller, Meat Plant At Oscars
Written by Vegetarian Star on February 27th, 2009 in Actresses, Videos.
Besides donning her lovely vegan shoes and ethical jewelry at the Academy Awards recently, vegan Natalie Portman also took a stab at a meat processing plant.
She and Ben Stiller presented an award together, and Ben decided to imitate the recent makeover, or shall we say unmakeover, of vegan Joaquin Phoenix, sporting a long scruffy beard and matching unkempt hairdo, complete with weirdo behavior.
Portman said, “You look like you work in a Hasidic meth lab.”
Many are speculating Portman was referring to a 2008 federal raid on a Hasidic-owned and operated Agriprocessors meat processing plant in Postville, Iowa.
Authorities discovered several infractions, including equipment for producing methamphetamines.
This is the same plant at which PETA secretly recorded a video on its controversial slaughter practices.
Other allegations included rabbis insulting workers while throwing meat at them, undocumented and illegal workers, and various health and safety issues.
