Another Twilight star has offered to pose in a PETA ad.

Kellan Lutz stars in this PSA urging his Twihard fans and everyone else to adopt a cat or dog instead of buying one at a pet store.

Lutz personally experienced the joy of bringing a shelter animal into his life when he adopted his dog, Nola.

“She wanted a home, and I think she felt that I was the right owner for her. And from that day on, I just loved her.”

The Twilight cast is doing a great job publicly promoting animal welfare issues.

Would love to see the vegetarian Cullens get together and do a “We’d Rather Eat Humans Than Wear Fur,” ad.

Mother-to-be Claudia Schiffer at the Elle Style Awards 2010 in London

Flexitarian Claudia Schiffer says she tries to eat more organic foods, a practice that started with her first child.

“During my first pregnancy, I started to eat organically and healthily because that was the first time I actually thought about what I was putting in my body,” she told Celebrity-Babies. “I’m still doing that today and I’m also just taking it easy, not working out too much, just enjoying this time in my life.”

Claudia is expecting her third child.

Claudia told Star Magazine that she tries to eat fruits and vegetables before noon and keeps her lunches with salads and vegetable based soups, saying “lots of meat” makes her tired.

The partner also hinted that Teany might be expanding their brand, so if you live in “any city that will appreciate vegan cooking,” you may be in for a pleasant surprise.

Twiggy Disappointed By Fur At London Fashion Show

Celebrities Attend Marks And Spencer Shop Opening

Twiggy isn’t happy about the use of fur at this year’s London Fashion Week, and cites a new investigation by Animal Defenders International as a reason to boycott both fur and the designers who use it.

“I hope this ADI report helps the fashion industry realise that these poor animals are kept in such terrible and inhumane conditions,” said Twiggy, who’s real name is Lesley Hornby. “Is it really worth this cruelty just for fashion’s sake? I don’t think so.”

The new report details the conditions the animals are kept in at factory farms in Finland, a supplier to the UK.

Twiggy called using 20 foxes or 80 mink to make a single coat “intolerably cruel.”

“I am very sad that some designers are still using real fur when the fake alternatives are so effective and so easily obtainable,” she said.

The Daily Mail says fashion experts are reporting that Peter Pilotto, Caroline Charles, Matthew Williamson and Todd Lynn are all still using fur.

Leona Lewis Fashion Line–Shoes Making Brand Difficult To Create

Love Ball London - Outside Arrivals

Leona Lewis‘ fashion line may have hit a little bump.

Though the singer still has plans to have a clothing and shoes brand created, it’s been difficult finding ethical and vegetarian friendly supplies.

“I’m trying to make that happen as soon as I can,” Lewis told UK Vogue.

“It’s a challenge – mostly with shoes – as I don’t wear any leather and am very ethical about what I wear.”

Despite the challenges, Leona’s love of both animals and fashion will most likely give her the motivation to continue to pursue the clothing line that Leona wishes to be both trendy and affordable.

“I really enjoy fashion and I love being creative. I work with a couple of stylists but I love fashion so am always looking online and in magazines for inspiration,” she said.

Kesha May Be Faux Fur Cover Girl

The 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards - Arrivals

Is Kesha a faux fur requesting diva at photo shoots?

Billboard magazine featured the singer and mentioned she posed in a faux fur coat for Q magazine.

This would put her at the opposite end of the spectrum from her pal Adam Lambert, who she recently shared a lip lock with.

Lambert said real fur not only looks great, but added, “I didn’t kill the thing, so I don’t see why I can’t wear it.”

Sigh…dear Adam, would  you want your skin to be used in someone’s Glam Rock performance?
