Quantcast Vegetarian StarNellie McKay’s Dog Chewed Vegan Shoes, Other TAFA Highlights

65th Annual Theatre World Awards in New York

The fifth annual Taking Action For Animals conference is wrapping up its last day and several stars showed up for a banquet to share their vegan and animal rights experiences.

Nellie McKay talked about her recently adopted pit bulls, who apparently love to eat some vegan things, because they’ve been chewing on her shoes, which she pointed out to the audience.

Humane Society of the United States president and CEO Wayne Pacelle talked about his decision to work with convicted dog fighting ringleader and ex Atlanta Falcons football player Michael Vick.

And Ginnifer Goodwin discussed how various “moments” like pouring milk over her cereal led to her making the vegan transition.

    I had a blast at conference – and at the tweet up they had on Friday – it was a nice way to kick off the TAFA weekend!

    We are fortunate to have three very talented young and vegetarian female vocalist. Nellie McKay, Leona Lewis and Joss Stone are exemplary singers and people. Carrie Underwood too !

    I stiill love the veteran vegetarian female singers too. Chrissie Hynde, Joan Jett, Annie Haslam, KD Lang and Canada’s overlooked Mae Moore.
