Vegetarian Star

An interesting and powerful clip found courtesy the folks at denbeath.blogspot.com.

Country music star Kellie Pickler is a vegetarian and was even crowned Sexiest in this year’s contest held by PETA.

However, according to this clip, Kellie has performed at the Cheyenne rodeo for two years in a row, where animals are abused by being dragged and lassoed, among other activities.

Kellie cited her reasons becoming vegetarian as partly due to animal rights.

“A lot of it has to do with knowing what happens to the animals and it really bothered me and so I will not eat meat,” she said.

Is Kellie’s willingness to perform at such events a complete violation of her vegetarian principles?

Watch the clip and tell us what you think.

After watching this video, you might wonder if someone slipped something into your almond milk.

Have no fear, it’s just an Auto-Tune The News parody of some recent events that touch on animal rights, which include New York city’s geese culling issue and Michael Vick‘s return to the football field.

A humorous take on series issues.

First Lady Michelle Obama gives a tour of the White House vegetable garden while offering some commentary on what led to her decision to create it.

Like most moms, Mrs. Obama wanted the fam to eat healthier, but found time constraints got in the way.

The garden is just one of the many ways Michelle found time to improve the Obamas diet, including “adding more fruits and vegetables,” sitting down with the family to enjoy a meal “a couple of times a week”, eating out a “little bit less,” and “eliminating processed and sugary foods.”

Michael Vick‘s return to the football field has drew a lot of talk, much of which is from the vegetarian community.

PETA’s president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk was recently interviewed on MSNBC to give her thoughts on the matter.

PETA had considered working with Vick after his prison release, but weren’t convinced Vick was truly a changed man.

During the video, Ingrid reminds everyone of the reasons why PETA couldn’t form a partnership, including the fact that “claw marks” were found on the pools where dogs were drown and Vick put “family pets” in the ring to fight with other dogs.

Talk about horror!

The new flick Sorority Row, starring Rumer Willis, is about a group of sorority sisters who accidentally kill a girl and try to keep it a secret.

Good luck with that one.

One of the sets on Sorority Row is filmed in an actual slaughterhouse.

Rumer was interviewed by The Today Show and mentions the “drains” and “hooks” she saw and how they added to the horror experience.

Not nearly as horrifying for animals, I’m sure, as none of them would pay for a show in a real slaughterhouse.

Watch Rumer describe the set.

Do you tune into The Secret Life of the American Teenager?

If so, you might have caught Montell Williams’ daughter, Wyntergrace Williams, in a primetime ad meant to urge Congress to ensure vegetarian options are always available in school lunches.

Wyntergrace is now giving dad a run for his daytime talk show money!

The campaign brought to you by the folks at the Physicians’ Committee For Responsible Medicine, is an effort to get changes made to the Child Nutrition Act, which sets the standards for school lunches.

Other vegetarian names like actor Tobey Maguire and Twitter co-founder Biz Stone have lobbied Congress for these changes as well.

A hilarious video has made it’s way to the Funny or Die series.

Short notice, but if you tune into the Food Network channel today at 1PM EST, you’ll see the premiere of former figure skating champion Brian Boitano do his thing on the new show, What Would Brian Botano Make?

WWBB  Make is bound to be cool, because, according to Mother Nature Network, Brian follows a more eco-friendly diet that consists of mostly vegetarian food, with a little fish here and there.

“I think my carbon footprint is pretty light,” Boitano said.

Check out the clip above to see Brian shake his hips and dance with a pepper grinder.

We give it a 10 for both style and technique!
