Leona Lewis had a recent creepy crawly scare while shooting a video in Malibu.

During the shoot, somehow a tarantula nest was disturbed, and the entire network of friends and family of spiders came crawling out.

Since Leona was so terrified, the shoot had to be delayed by 2 hours while pest control came in and took care of the problem.

Ooooh. You can hear the critics already.

Leona Lewis, a staunch vegetarian who turned down over a million dollars to perform at a store that sold fur is okay with killing spiders?

It could be argued that the shoot could have been moved elsewhere while the spiders were left to call their insurance company for rebuild quotes.

But Leona’s crew chose to exterminate them instead.

Maybe not the kindest chose, but no one is perfect.

Soon we’ll see how the vegetarian haters, PETA mockers, and media predators in general treat this incident.

Things just got real ugly in Philadelphia, as the city of brotherly love that Michael Vick recently signed to play football with just happens to be the hometown of singer and animal activist Pink.

Yes, THE Pink. Same gal who suggested Kanye West be skinned and made into a fur coat for his fur loving tendencies.

Her latest kind thoughts about Vick from Twitter:

“wow. michael vick in MY hometown, Philly. of all the places. I hope the fans tear him to pieces like his beloved dogs”

There are already several protests planned in Philly.

Michael Vick has been signed with the Philadelphia Eagles on a two year contract.

To some, seems like an awfully short time he spent away from the football field as punishment for the conviction is his dog fighting activities.

PETA has taken the time to issue a statement about how they feel about the matter.

“PETA certainly hopes that Vick has learned his lesson and feels truly remorseful for his crimes—but since he’s given no public indication that that’s the case, only time will tell. At this point, all Eagles fans can do is cross their fingers and hope that they won’t ever have to explain to their sons and daughters what a “rape rack” is and why their favorite player was using one, as Falcons fans once had to.”

Yesterday we learned that legendary chef Julia Child couldn’t understand why anyone would want to follow a vegetarian diet.

Now, we find out not only did Julia hate on tofu, she didn’t care too much for organic food either.

According to green gossip website, Ecorazzi.com, Meryl Streep, who plays Child in the movie Julie & Julia, recalled the time when she asked Julia what she thought of organic ingredients.

Child wrote Streep a pretty nasty letter saying she didn’t care for organics.

It was only later when locally grown, sustainable foods champ Alice Waters came along that the chef started to embrace the food.

“Well, we’re really not too concerned about what people think about us because our clients happen to be whales and sharks and sea turtles and fish. So you know, we do what we do, and people either like it, or they don’t like it. They either like it passionately or they dislike us intensely. What we do out there is simply go out and intervene against illegal activities. We aren’t a protest group. What we are is an interventionist group. And we’ve never hurt anybody, but we’re quite aggressive.”

—-Captain Paul Watson, founder of Sea Shepherd Conservation and Whale Wars star on how the public reacts to some of the Sea Shepherd’s tactics to thwart Japanese hunters from killing whales.

The Zookeeper, a movie about a man who wins a lady’s love, recently began filming.

The company Birds & Animals Unlimited has been contracted to supply animals for the film, although PETA alleges it has a rap sheet of USDA violations longer than a giraffe’s neck.

PETA has taken the opportunity to write to Rosario Dawson, Adam Sandler, Cher and Sylvester Stallone asking them not to use the company’s services.

“We’re hoping to enlist the film’s stars to keep cruelty off the set,” said PETA spokesperson Amanda Schinke.

“Exotic animals used as involuntary ‘actors’ are routinely subjected to rigorous and abusive training methods to coerce them into performing acts that are stressful, uncomfortable, confusing and even painful.”

Even better, PETA suggests The Zookeeper crew take advantage of modern technology such as computer generated imagery.

A spokesperson for the animal rights group, Debbie Leahy said, “When it comes to exotic animal characters, the best casting choice is to ‘fake it.’ Even under the best of circumstances, captivity can be hell for exotic animals.”

Strange events occur in the Beckham’s kitchen.

Victoria Beckham, has claimed to be a vegetarian who still cooks meat for her husband and kids.

“The only thing I can cook really is mince meat, which is ironic because I’m a vegetarian.”

Now, we’re learning that David is helping with the domestic chores as well-which include making one of Victoria’s favorite dishes of prawns.

According to splashnewsonline.celebuzz.com, David says:

“My signature dish for Victoria is grilled prawns or lobster and fresh vegetables.”

Unless Mrs. Posh Spice likes to look at the dead grilled prawns while eating her meatless pasta, she ain’t exactly vegetarian.

And after learning of all the half-assed vegetarian celebrities, we have little hope Victoria munches on Vegan King Prawns.

Sigh…

Another star who needs a vocabulary lesson.

It’s pescatarian, Victoria.
