The U.S. Sportmen’s Alliance is at it again, targeting celebrities who are benefiting the Humane Society of the United States.

Last year, Carrie Undewood was criticized for donating proceeds from her American Idol elimination track “Home Sweet Home” to the organization.

This year, Ellen DeGeneres and Bluewater Comics are the bull’s-eyes.

The group wrote to the company that is producing Ellen’s Female Force comic book detailing her life, because a portion of its proceeds are going to the Humane Society as well.

“As the producer of this comic, we respectfully ask that you consider severing the relationship you have established with HSUS,” Alliance president and chief executive officer Walter P. Pidgeon wrote in an email provided to E! Online by Bluewater.

A Bluewater representative wrote back, saying it would not comply with the Alliance’s request.

“While we respect your right to disagree with the goals of The Humane Society of the United States,” a Bluewater rep said, “we do not share your concerns about the organization.”

Martha Stewart will feature soy and other vegetarian products on “The Martha Stewart” show on April 6, 2010 to celebrate both National Soy Month in April as well as the upcoming Earth Day April 22.

Martha will host Irwin D. Simon, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hain Celestial, and the two will share tips for healthier eating, showcasing products like Hain Celestial’s Dream(R) brand of non-dairy beverages, frozen desserts, and chocolate bars, and WestSoy non-dairy beverages and tofu, tempeh and seitan products.

“Spring is a great time to renew our commitment to a healthy lifestyle and a healthy world,” stated Irwin Simon. “We can all learn how to eat more healthfully and at the same time to consume sustainable products that are better for the planet, and Martha Stewart has long been a strong voice for healthier foods and homes”

Sounds like it will be a fun show that could only get better if Martha’s vegetarian daughter, Alexis Stewart, stopped by for a visit.

Tila Tequilla

Tila Tequila got caught in a very inappropriate position.

Out shopping for the day, Tequila stopped by the meat section of the grocery store and appeared to be contemplating if she was going to be a breast, leg or thigh girl for the day.

Definitely not cool.

The potential e. coli, hormones and antibiotics surrounding Tequila at that moment were waaaay dirtier than that outfit.

Such a shame, considering she’s already passionate about not wearing fur, as was evident in her column for Global Grind, Hot Girls Fake It For The Animals.

Then again, the photos might motivate some to stay away from the aisle, as zeitgeistyreport suggests.

“Ewww… just…ewww. I remember when ‘Babe’ first came out, it turned me off meat for like 9 months, I think these photos will be the impetus for me to go vegan forever. I hope they fumigated the whole meat section after she finished up her little photo shoot. I don’t wanna hear on the 6 o’clock news that a slew Los Angeles carnivores came down with a case of skank.”

Here’s hoping Tequila’s next writing assignment investigates factory farms and the impact on eating animals on the earth, so in the future she’ll be showing a little less real meat.

The Chicago Diner in Chicago, Illinois is celebrating its 27th anniversary this week with specials on food, gift bags with free veggie goodies and more.

The restaurant with the slogan, “Meat-Free Since ’83” is completely vegetarian and almost entirely vegan, featuring meatless versions of classic diner foods like burgers, steak, breakfast foods, pastas and desserts.

Ellen DeGeneres is so much a fan of the diner’s vegan hot wings that after trying them in the Windy City, she had some Fed Exed to her studios in California later.

The hot wings are made from seitan and come in barbecue or hot and spicy style with ranch dressing.

Part of the celebration includes a few menu items available at 1983 prices like various beers and wines, the diner burger, black bean burger, gryos, the Radical Reuben and the Philly Steak.

The hot wings aren’t on the ’83 price menu, but they won’t break the bank if you stop by Chicago’s vegetarian food hot spot on Halsted this week.

Ellen DeGeneres Comic Book. Bluewater Productions

Ellen DeGeneres has joined company with other famous female celebrities such as Sarah Palin, Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton and Oprah Winfrey in the Bluewater Productions Comic Book Series Female Force.

DeGeneres’ comic book will be available tomorrow for $3.99 and will detail her life from growing up in Louisiana, her desire to become a veterinarian as a child and her rise to stardom on the comedy and television front.

A portion of the proceeds from the comic book will go to the Humane Society of the United States.

“Ellen has been a leading force for animal protections issues,” said Michael Markarian, chief operating officer of the HSUS, in a statement thanking DeGeneres for her contributions.

According to PeoplePets, one of the sketches in the book includes a dog in she and Portia de Rossi‘s wedding photo!

MTV has several pages of previews available.

Chelsea Handler is giving Real Housewives of New York City star Kelly Bensimon a piece of her mind many other animal lovers share.

Handler discussed Bensimon’s recent rave about fur, where Bensimon said something to the effect that although she loves animals and never advocates hurting them, she doesn’t see a problem with wearing fur.

She also obviously doesn’t see the contradiction in her statements, but Handler on E! attempted to clear things up for her.

“Really? You don’t abuse animals? I think the chinchilla who just had his hide ripped off might disagree. You think you’re a great fur wearer? You know who wears it better? The innocent animal it came from. This is not a smart move. You just taunted PETA on national television while wearing an unattractive fur vest.”

Dr. Oz has given OK! magazine some tips for couples that want a lasting relationship.

“The most important thing I can ever say to a married couple is reinvent the relationship every seven years,” Dr. Oz said. “The person you’re married to will change, and so will you. Every couple years, when the biological handcuffs come off that keep us together – the oxytocin and all the chemicals that come together so they can bear children and raise them to five or six years of age — when that chemical wears off, you’ve got to reconnect emotionally.”

He’s also tells how he almost completely messed up with wife of 25 years Lisa when he took her on her first date without learning what her dietary preferences were.

“I took my wife on our first date to Philly Cheesesteak — the big hangout place in Philly, and I didn’t know what a vegetarian meant,” he said. “Her mom made her a vegetarian when she was 12. That was a long time ago. The story of my life, I learned from her.”

Guys don’t learn the hard way Dr. Oz did.

When it comes to choosing the first date spot, it’s always ladies first.

Ask HER where to have dinner!

The stamps, which can be seen in the video, feature 10 pets that have been adopted and go on sale April 30.
