Several celebrities have partaken in a funny PSA for Farm Sanctuary’s What Did You Do? campaign meant to raise awareness on the cruelty of factory farming and teach consumers how they can make a difference.

Russell Simmons, Shannon Elizabeth, Fred Willard and Ashlan Gorse play enthusiastic PR folks in a conference who are trying to pitch their ideas to help people understand just how much life on some of these farms suck for animals.

“I get that you don’t want to shock people but the reality is shocking,” Simmons says.

Some suggested ideas to get the shocking point across include “Celebrity Pictionary,” that illustrates how chickens get their beaks cut off. However, that idea is deemed “over the top.”

“Ending animal testing for cosmetics is close to my heart, and so is my bunny Melrose. Melrose is so gentle and loving with such an amazing personality all her own, it breaks my heart to know there are thousands of rabbits who are just as special suffering a terrible fate to test cosmetics. I would never dream of causing Melrose pain, but in laboratories around the world, rabbits and other helpless animals still have chemicals dripped in their eyes or spread over their sensitive skin just to test new lip sticks or shampoo. I want their suffering to stop.”

—Leona Lewis, one of two stars seen in ads by the Humane Society of the United States that promote cruelty-free cosmetics and celebrate International Rabbit Day.

Martha Stewart is giving the thumbs up to a New Jersey statute that would prohibit the use of gestation crates for pigs.

The celebrity chef, cookbook author and television host wrote to the members of the New Jersey legislature asking them to override a veto made by the state’s governor and make like easier for animals on farms in the state she is from.

“As a native New Jerseyan, I’ve always been proud of our state for its pro-animal positions, whether it be relating to the protection of dogs, cats, horses or other animals,” Martha wrote.

“It’s the saddest thing to know that rabbits can’t cry, which is one of the reasons these gentle creatures are used in painful eye tests for cosmetics. When I think of their unnecessary suffering I could certainly shed a tear, so I’m backing the Be Cruelty-Free campaign to see an end to animal testing in North America and globally. Show the bunnies some love and let’s end cosmetics cruelty.”

—Owain Yeoman, for the Be Cruelty-Free Campaign with the Humane Society of the United States. Yeoman and singer Leona Lewis both issued statements on ending animal testing in cosmetics in honor of International Rabbit Day.
