PETA has revealed the winners of its latest Sexiest Vegetarians Contest.

Being sexy, vegetarian and funny must be a likely combination because this year two hilarious television personalities, Kristen Wiig and Russell Brand were crowned Queen and King.

Ironically, SNL star Wiig once starred in a skit mocking vegans. But since she still considers some of her indulgences to be dark chocolate peanut M & M’s and “hot, melty cheesy sandwiches” we guess it’s still okay for her to mock the nut cheese and rice milk fanatics.

Leona Lewis visited the Cleveland Armory Black Beauty Ranch to get close with a few of her favorite animal friends that included horses, primates and other animals.

Lewis recorded a PSA for the ranch, which sits on 1,300 acres and is home to over 1,200 wild and domestic animals that have been rescued from various situations such as circuses, roadside zoos and slaughterhouses.

“I have my own horse,” Lewis says in the video. “He’s so beautiful and gentle and gives me so much love back. To think that someone would hurt them is heartbreaking.”

Lewis’ PSA for the Cleveland Black Beauty Ranch can be viewed below.

“Going vegan and making that transition is not as daunting as you might think. It can seem like this insurmountable hurtle. People eat more vegan food than they realize, you know? ?Cause, you know, I, like most people, I grew up eating meat and animal products without thinking about it, but it’s, you know, now it’s been almost 10 years and I don’t look back. It doesn’t even strike me as an option anymore, and that transition happened naturally, and I’m happy and healthy, and that could happen to anyone.”

–Maroon 5′s Mickey Madden, in an interview with PETA2.

Yotam Ottolenghi keeps plenty of tricks up his sleeve. Like an abundance of herbs to beautify and liven up a dish and the pomegranate seeds he calls the “Jewels in the Crown.”

Yotam uses these tricks in his vegetable cookbook Plenty, and NPR recently interviewed the chef to learn how he makes magic with vegetables, including not overcooking your greens.

Reality TV cooking shows usually play devil and not angel to vegetarian contestants and meals, but during a recent episode of The Next Food Network Star, the chefs made meals from Kellogg’s products that were mostly meatless.

The bad boys and girls must be ice skating in hell right now, because when Paula Deen eats tofu the place has definitely frozen over.

And amazingly, Paula didn’t wrap the piece of soy in bacon, fry it in lard and dip it in butter.
