Vegetarian Star

Several celebrities including Slash and Lisa Edelstein are starring in a PSA for the Shark-Free Marina Initiative meant to raise awareness and stop the killing of sharks for recreational purposes.

During the clip, stars ask what a world without sharks would be.

Since these creatures are the ocean’s largest animals and top predators, their disappearance would be devastating, causing collapse of the food chain where smaller fish become overabundant and an entire ecosystem is left unbalanced.

About 73 million sharks are killed every year just for their fins during a gruesome practice that leaves them in the water bleeding for dead.

How about a little rap music to start off the weekend?

Musician Parry Gripp has released “I Like Vegetables,”–a catchy tune with a beat that incorporates a love for all things that grow from dirt or from trees and manages to avoid the corny, roll your eyes effect that some jingles that try to convey something serious or educational do.

“Fancy Cars, you can’t sell to me. I spend all my money on celery,” raps Gripp who later adds he’s “notorious” and “nefarious” because he doesn’t “spare one spear of asparagus.”

If the First Lady is looking for a theme song to her “Let’s Move!” campaign, her search should end right here.
