Vegetarian Star

Wow. Talk about calling a shot.

When we asked weeks ago if Milo Ventimiglia was the sexiest, fans across the nation answered our question with a resounding YES!

Milo was voted Sexiest Vegetarian of the Year in a contest held by PETA, along with his female crowned counterpart Kellie Pickler.

Milo does have an advantage, given the fact he was raised vegetarian since in utero. But Kellie made an honest effort to change her diet as an adult with a little help from fellow Idol alum and vegetarian Carrie Underwood and Pamela Anderson.

When Kellie found out she won, she had to do some googling to believe it!

On her Myspace blog, she wrote:

“On another note….I just found out that I was voted “Peta’s Sexiest Vegetarian!” How cool is that?!! Thank you so much for voting!! That was totally unexpected!! I was jumping up and down when I heard the news! I even googled it to make sure I wasn’t being punk’d! ha ha!! “

Did your favorite vegetarian star win? Should someone else be seated in the top spot?

Is Tila Tequila a bit narcissistic? She openly called herself “hot” on globalgrind.com.

Well, if you know you got it, admit it! Not only is she hot, she’s got a warm heart for animals, and has taken the opportunity to discourage people from wearing fur.

“I don’t know who those people are that have it in their hearts to skin an animal while it is still alive but I hope that by promoting fur alternatives I’m doing my part to stop that needless suffering. You will never see me wearing a fur and if you do, rest assured its FAKE. If you love animals you cannot justify wearing them. Its that simple. Remember, hot girls fake it…for the animals. I should know, cause I’m hot. Lol.”

Tila posted a video about what goes on in fur factories that has generated TONS of comments.

This gal who has appeared in Stuff, Maxim, Time, and Penthouse definitely knows how to light up the room. And not just because she looks good.

Ingrid Newkirk once said she hated people thinking being vegan meant being a “pure” vegetarian and not drinking or going to church every week.

Singer Pink’s not vegan, but she’s proving vegetarians can have a cold one at the end of the day.

While on tour recently in Australia, she told a reporter that while she prefers to eat vegetarian meals, she kept her concert cooler stocked with VB, Victoria Bitter beer.

Victoria Bitter hasn’t been investigated by the veg friendly alcohol folks at Barnivore.com, so we’re not sure if it’s vegan approved or not. Anyone care to tell?

Update: Victoria Bitter NOT vegetarian or vegan. See comments!

When we heard Chrissie Hynde and The Pretenders were doing a show at the Minnesota Zoo, we did a double take.

The zoo is the last place a staunch animal rights supporter like Chrissie would hang out at, right?

Turns out, she did write a letter after learning animals in the family petting zoo area are eventually sent off to the slaughterhouse.

“How can a zoo invite children to touch and play with and express joy over animals for their uniqueness, only to turn around and sell those very animals to slaughter?” she wrote.

The Pretenders show at the zoo has been rescheduled, but another venue has yet to be chosen.

Sue McLean, the concert’s promoter, cited several factors for the change in venue, including size of the crowd and the zoo’s curfew at 10:30 PM.

The latest tour is to promote The Pretenders’ album, Break Up The Concrete.

Geneva Cruz is Philippine’s Sexiest Vegetarian. PETA says so.

Of course, don’t take PETA’s word for it. Maxim agrees too, as this lady graced the cover not long ago.

What makes Geneva so beautiful inside and out is her love for animals. A vegetarian since 15 who’s now a vegan, Geneva made the switch after filming a shampoo commercial where she interacted with animals.

“We were at a place in Palawan where the animals could roam free! Free! And all I had to so was to feed one of them and say ‘Natural!’ We’d repeat that for each take,” Geneva said.

“I think you help save a lot of lives if you are a vegetarian. For me, a vegan diet is not about dieting, it’s about loving all living things,” she added.

Okay, so it’s no secret The Pretenders’ singer is a vegan and animal rights activist, but the Independent’s article “My Secret Life” reveals a few facts you may not know about Chrissie Hynde.

Chrissie’s secrets include life changing vegetarian moments and a love for greener, public transportation.

The moment that changed me for ever … was becoming a vegetarian aged 17; my whole life changed. I spent a lot of time hanging out in the woods near my house and felt a connection to the birds and trees.

My real-life villain is … McDonald’s.

I drive … a Smart car but don’t use it much. My favourite ride is the bus; I like to get involved in the human pageantry.

“Children have a natural empathy with animals. They carry around a teddy bear and are taught to love animals. All those fairy tales have animals in them. Then kids are taught to accept their exploitation and death. I do think people try to do the best they can, but they get hit by mixed messages from every direction. They get confused and need to learn.”

—-Singer and songwriter Nellie McKay, in an interview with popmatters.com. 

Talk about mixed messages…Kids grow up with cats and dogs as pets and cows and chickens as food. No wonder the adolescents of today are so angst ridden!
