Vegetarian Star

When porn stars say lay off the sex, you know it’s gotta be serious. Jenna Jameson and Sasha Grey have both participated in PETA’s Spay and Neuter your pets campaign. Jameson recently also starred in a PSA against McDonald’s for the way it slaughters chickens.

Control the animal population. Eat less meat. Sexy.

Between the two adult film stars, who would you rather…

The sole vegan face of Big Brother, Sunshine Martyn, was recently given the boot from the house.

Too bad, as she served as a great lesson in the joys and pitfalls the lifestyle can bring, such as when she broke the stereotype by revealing she hated tofu and found it difficult at first to get the items she wanted to eat.

Of course, her carnivorous housemates discussed how easier it would be to shop for food with her departure, hinting it may have been a reason for her eviction.

Sunshine thought her exit was because she refused to share her stash of vegan items with her hungry house mates.

“Because I didn’t share my crisps until the day after,” she said.

That’s right, Sunshine. They were just hungry and jealous. Mmm…what flavor were those crisps again?

Matt & Nat

Jenna Dewan Tatum PETA Ad

Jenna Dewan Tatum, wife of Channing Tatum, looks a little weird and creepy is this faux snakeskin outfit while posing in a PETA ad meant to educate on the use of exotic snake skins in the fashion industry. Likewise, anyone who wears such attire should be aware they look just as ridiculous–unless they’re a serpent.

Jenna described how she felt when she learned how snakes are killed for their skins.

“They actually club them over the head. And they’re not even dead yet and then they start to skin them.” Jenna said “it was so awful” to see the snakes squirming in pain.

An exclusive interview Jenna conducted with PETA can be viewed below.

Gary Conklin, owner of Conklin Dairy Farm, the Ohio based farm where Billy Joe Gregg, Jr. was caught on camera beating a cow and poking it with a pitchfork by animal rights group Mercy for Animals, will not be charged with any criminal activity involving the incident with one of his employees.

This cleared the way for him to talk to ABN, Ohio’s Voice for Agriculture, about the incident, the employee charged with several counts of cruelty, and its impact on business and his family.

Like everyone who gets caught in an undesirable act, MacPherson is pleading ignorant. The model told news.com.au she “never knowingly consumed or encouraged the use or consumption of any products which contain material derived from endangered species”.
