Vegetarian Star

“It’s actually our whole Western lifestyle. It’s one of the reasons half of us have cancer. Because our Western lifestyle is so acidic–the food we eat causes the acid. The meats, the processed foods–our bodies are made for whole foods. The sun goes in the plant, the plant [in] us, we live. That’s how it works. And it’s really taxing us and that’s why we’re seeing this epidemic of cancer.”

–Melissa Etheridge, in an interview with Access Hollywood on her 7-year recovery from breast cancer.

“I’ve seen the video footage released by Animal Defenders International that shows the owners and trainers with HTWT as they hit elephants as hard as they can with bullhooks and use electric shocks on the animals’ bellies. You can hear a grown elephant who bellows in pain and a baby who cries out while being jabbed repeatedly in the mouth and hit over the head. Please don’t allow the reputation of the fair to be tarnished by its support of cruel elephant rides.”

–Joan Jett, in a letter to organizers of the San Diego county fair. The fair is offering elephant rides with animals provided by the entertainment company, Have Trunk Will Travel. HTWT has been found by undercover animal rights investigations to use cruel methods to train its animals, including the use of bullhooks, a practice recently banned in Atlanta.
