Elle MacPherson Uses Endangered Rhino For Horn Powder

Elle Macpherson

Just because all supermodels get nose jobs doesn’t mean they should require Rhinos to get them too.

Reports from Celebitchy say Elle MacPherson has angered animal rights activists after an interview with the Times Online revealed she takes Chinese medicine made from crushed and grounded rhinoceros horns. And these nose jobs don’t come with anesthetic, we assure you.

Times Online: You’re said to be a great fan of Chinese medicine. What does powdered rhino horn taste like?
EP: A little bit like crushed bone and fungus in a capsule. Does the job though.

Justin Gaston Ben Elliot PETA "If I Can Dream"

Justin Gaston Ben Elliot PETA "If I Can Dream"

Well, well, well.

Miley Cyrus‘ controversial Vanity Fair photos are nothing compared to her ex boyfriend Justin Gaston‘s latest photo shoot with Ben Elliot to promote People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and the television series that follows aspiring musicians on their way to fame, If I Can Dream.

PETA people are known for nakedness, so it’s easy to figure out the idea here is either vegetarian, stop wearing fur, etc., but beyond that, it’s not really clear which campaign these guys, along with model Giglianne Braga, are promoting, other than bedroom freakiness. More nakedness down below (ha, ha great pervert pun).

Australian model and MTV VJ Ruby Rose recently had to defend her choice of words when she said she follows a mostly vegan diet. Anyone who’s ever used the term loosely around a hard-core, purist vegan knows the trouble Rose found herself in.

Part time vegetarian, flexitarian, pescatarian, and now “veganese,” is the new term for someone who doesn’t eat certain animal products, thanks to Rose’s new coined phrase.

“I don’t eat any meat, I don’t drink milk, but I do eat cheese and fish, just to get my iron levels back up,” Rose told Confidential.

After the series of backlashes from the “you are not a vegan biotch,” crowd, Rose defended herself on Twitter.

Summer Rayne Oakes and Payless ShoeSource are bringing vegan, eco summer shoe fashion at an affordable price to environmentally conscious fashionistas with its summer lineup of Zoe & Zac shoes.

Zoe & Zac’s summer collection features six women’s footwear styles and two handbag styles, all of which receive environmentalist and TV host Oakes’ consultation to ensure the shoes have the lowest impact on the environment.

“I am energized each season to work with Payless on the latest Zoe & Zac seasonal line,” said Oakes. “We begin by targeting the strongest trends of the season, then work to create those silhouettes, colors and details with innovative green materials and processes. The end result is a stylish and eco-friendly line that shoppers can afford, thus breaking down the barriers to sustainable style. The Zoe & Zac products don’t look like the other green shoes out there — they are all about fashion-first and each season I am truly proud of the collection.”

Brooke Shields Designs Own Fur Coat At Kopenhagen Studio

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, June 1st, 2010 in Actresses, Fur, Models.

55th Annual Drama Desk Awards

Brooke Shields is not making the list of favorite models this week or this year for that matter. It’s bad enough she became a meat eater again after 16 years of being vegetarian, but now she’s getting excited about designing her own custom made fur coat. Earlier this month, she visited Kopenhagen Studio, a creative fur workshop in Kopenhagen to pick the mink hide of her choice.

“Wearing fur may be associated with something grandmotherish. Something you wear when you visit the opera, or if you are a rock star and wears it inside out. But I will advocate that both my generation and the younger generation can wear fur.”

Lucy Clarkson formerly posed as a model for Lara Croft, a character known for raiding ancient tombs and ruins, but she’s not likely to raid the ancient caveman’s closet for his fur shawl.

Clarkson took the time to pose in nothing more than a painted on suit to protest the use of using real bear fur in the Queen’s guards’ hats.

A spokesperson from the Ministry of Defence has commented on the use of bear fur in the hats and on the possibility of using fake fur in the future.

Vegetarian Lauren Bush has recently launched another set of bags in her FEED Projects series, the FEED Guatemala bags, to help the United National Children’s Fund, UNICEF.

The “FEED Guatemala 1” and “FEED Guatemala 3” bags will provide daily nutrient powder for 1 or 3 children, respectively, in Guatemala for one year.

According to the Lord and Taylor website featuring the items, nearly 23% of children over three months and under 5 years suffer from some kind of malnutrition and almost half of children suffered from chronic malnutrition in 2006.

If the world refrained from eating meat, or at least ate less meat, that number could be a lot lower.
