Naomi Campbell Plans To Look Ugly In Fur Campaign

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, July 7th, 2009 in Fur, Models, Not So Vegetarian.

MTV Europe Music Awards 2004 - Arrivals

Photographed here in what seems like second skin for her, model Naomi Campbell has announced plans to star in a fur campaign for designer Dennis Basso.

Although Noami once had principles and starred in a “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign for PETA, she tossed those faster than a clothing switch at a photo shoot and criticized the group for its tactics.

“When PETA started targeting (Vogue editor) Anna Wintour and (designer) Karl Lagerfield and putting dead animals on their plate, I felt that they went too far and I thought, I didn’t want to be a part of this campaign anymore.”

She added, “I do like wearing fur and I still do.”

Well, now.

Naomi isn’t winning some over at monsterandcritics.com, where commenters are giving their two cents.

“She has brought all the negative feelings about her on herself with her disgusting actions.”

“This woman Naomi Campbell may be beautiful on the outside but inside she is very very ugly. In the past she was part of an anti-fur campaign but obviously for her it was only skin deep! Money rules and her compassion for anybody but herself is obvious. Fur only looks good on the true owner: the poor animal that was abused and tortured for a stupid coat!”

Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus attend the German premiere of Hannah Montana - The Movie

Once upon a time, Miley Cyrus was a vegetable hating vegetarian.

Now it seems she’s hating on the whole veg lifestyle as it’s been revealed she’s couldn’t resist giving into those occasional meat cravings now and then.

“I’m from Tennessee and we like country fried steak a lot,” Miley said to Inquirer.net. “I like fried food. I wasn’t able to give up the meat. I want a steak or a burger from McDonald’s every once in a while. A double-double is just way too good. I’ve still got to eat. I’ve got the rest of my life to stay healthy.”

Now we know you Tennesseans are shaking your heads and restraining yourself from giving Miley a smack for speaking for all of you.

Ginnifer Goodwin is from Tennessee too Miley. That’s no excuse.

If Hannah Montana likes to fry it, she could at least fry tofu in vegetable oil. And country fried steak? Amy might be able to help her out in the Southern Whole Meals department.

Why not try a vegan until 6 thing like Mark Bittman. Or the Graham Hill weekday vegetarian plan.

Teenagers are already experiencing high blood pressure and wacko blood sugar levels that put them at risk for heart disease later.

Don’t just write it off Miley, because contrary to what you say, you don’t have your entire life to be healthy.

The CW Upfront 2009 Presentation - Americas Next Top Model

A recent episode of The Tyra Show had guests tasting a berry that supposedly altered your taste buds to make everything taste sweeter.

Maybe they should make a salad dressing out of this berry, because one audience member tasted it and said, “Well, I’m a vegetarian so hopefully this make vegetables taste better.”

Tyra quickly made another suggestion, however.

“Girl, pork will make vegetables taste better.”

Uh, no Tyra girl, you must have tasted a berry that’s affected your thinking.

As Vegdaily put it:

“Because pigs are more likely to carry worms and diseases, and because pig meat is high in cholesterol and saturated fat, pork will add illness and obesity to your vegetables. And I don’t consider either of these to be tasty.”

Besides, when was the last time you heard someone say they had a pork tooth craving? Enough said.

If this doesn’t scare the fur off Susan Boyles‘ cat Pebbles, nothing will.

Piers Morgan, host of Britain’s Got Talent and America’s Got Talent is the poster boy for Burger King’s new scent, Flame.

Piers has donated his face (that’s a model’s body superimposed on his) to the scent that a Burger King spokesperson describes as a “very manly smell.”

“It’s well known that certain foods can increase your libido,” the BK spokesperson said. “Flame has a hint of grilled beef but that has quite masculine connotations. It is almost like a pheromone.”

Yeah, that really gets the veg ladies going, alright. Nothing like rotten flesh to get you in the mood.

Fast food restaurants launching perfume segments of their business? What’s the world coming to? Surely hope there’s no cologne for Long John Silver’s coming in the works.

The video below shows the making of the Piers Morgan Flame porn. Watch and be disgusted at your own risk.

audrina-burger1

Audrina Patridge is not a vegetarian.

But as Deceiver points out, she’s done some work for PETA (remember the animal adoption ad?) where the ad tagline is, “Buying animals means killing animals.”

Guess Audrina feels if they’re already dead, it’s okay to buy them.

Following in the footsteps of Padma Lakshmi, Audrina is the latest celebrity to partake in burger whoredom in a national franchise, starring in an ad for Carl Jr. $6 Teriyaki burger.

“I had an absolute blast shooting,” said Audrina, according to PEOPLE. “It was my first experience shooting a spot with food, and when I pulled up, I was literally salivating looking at all the rows and rows of perfect burgers waiting for me!”

“I was cracking up because I would take a bite, and almost immediately a food handler with white gloves would have a brand new burger ready.”

Audrina will have a spot in an upcoming movie, Sorority Row, this fall.

Since she put so many cows on death row for this commercial, we suggest all animals run for the Hills before it’s too late.

Kari Byron Doesn’t Bust Myth About Meat Cravings And Pregnancy

Mythbuster #1: You don’t have to eat real meat during pregnancy if you get weird cravings.

Kari Byron, co-host of the Discovery Channel’s Mythbusters, uncovers the truth about urban legends and news stories in pop culture.

So we’re wondering why she didn’t test out the myth that otherwise vegetarian women who get meaty cravings during pregnancy can’t get their needs fulfilled through imitation meats.

Byron gave into some mean cravings for beef stew while pregnant even though she was a strict vegetarian before.

“My husband had to cut the meat up — that part was too gross for me! — and he prepared it,” she said.

Byron thinks her baby wanted the full experience of hardcore, hormone pumped beef versus wimpy, recreational drug meat like chicken.

“I guess the little baby wanted to taste beef! Not even a gateway meat like chicken!”

Maybe next time Byron will investigate this urban legend and see if imitation beef does the trick.

Mario Batali Loves Eating Vegetarians For Lunch And Dinner

Joyful Heart Foundation Gala Celebrity Arrivals In NYC

Mario Batali and fellow vegetarian hater Anthony Bourdain recently did a Q & A session with fans and one person asked Batali what he thought of vegetarians.

“Some of my favorite things to eat are vegetarians!”

Ha, ha haaaaaa, Mario.

Gwyneth Paltrow scolded him for eating baby animals during their culinary adventures in Spain…On The Road Again, saying it was bad karma to do so. Of course, given her phony vegetarian history (turkey burgers, anyone?) she didn’t have much room to talk, but good for her for selectively taking up for some animals.

Yeah, we’re sure there’s even worse bad karma for those who eat baby AND grass fed animals.

Premiere Of International Film Circuits The Hammer - Arrivals

Don’t you hate it when you’re a vegan and you’re forced to eat rat’s tail in an eating contest on some reality TV show? It’s a bummer!

Episode one of I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here featured John Salley in an eating competition with Heidi Montag. The treat? Delicious rat tail. Salley swallowed ratatouille booty whole, while Heidi was ladylike and nibbled.

Could the menu on episode one, be the reason Heidi quit?

John Salley, the artist formerly known as vegan, had told several media sources he planned to eat raw and vegan while in the Costa Rica jungle. Rat tail’s raw alright, but definitely not vegan. Unless there’s some fake rodent meat substitute Whole Foods isn’t stocking at the moment.

Episode one and Salley is already breaking his veganness. What do you guys think about the situation? Did Salley naively think he could only eat vegan on the show?
