23rd Annual Genesis Awards - Arrivals

The 23rd annual Genesis Awards were held this weekend and vegan Heather Mills was present with a very handsome companion: a golden Labrador retriever, one of the dogs who played Marley in the Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson hit movie, Marley & Me.

The Genesis Awards are held annually to recognize celebrities and notable public figures that have made the biggest bark (had to throw that pun in) for animal rights.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi received the Wyler Awards this year. The couple recently became vegan and were huge Proposition 2 (which allows some farm animals to move around freely) supporters last year.

Jennifer Aniston Goes Vegan: Eats Chips, Quits, And Complains

UK Film Premiere : Marley And Me - Arrivals

If you keep up with the vegetarian celebrity news like we do, you know some of them have a tendency to flip flop between being veggie and eating meat, cough, cough, Anne Hathaway. So if you were in the business of predicting which celebrities would go veg/go meat/go veg, would you be a good forecaster?

Adam Kochanowicz, a vegan Examiner writer in Omaha, Nebraska thinks he can, and currently he’s got a “vegan pool” going, where he chooses which celebrities will go vegan and which will give it up, embarrassing vegans everywhere.

Jennifer Aniston, Matt Damon, and Barack Obama are all likely to go vegan. But Aniston is one who could potentially embarrass the vegans once she quits.

“Honestly, she seems like the kind of person to go vegan, eat chips and ramen, then quit and publicize how terrible it was,” Kochanowicz said.

A couple of celebrities predicted to give up vegan are Natalie Portman and Oprah Winfrey (ahem, once she goes back to vegan).

Oprah follows a new fad every other week, so although she might take up the diet and lifestyle again, there’s a good chance she’ll hear about something that gives her an excuse to give it up.

We’d have to disagree with Natalie Portman, since she seems like such an ethical vegan, making the decision to go vegetarian at a young age for ethical reasons as well. A Harvard graduate, Natalie is much too intelligent to be swayed that easily. Sorry, Adam. We think you’re wrong on that one!

Is Twilight Saga Really Animal Friendly?

Twilight - Germany Premiere

Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s Twilight Saga snagged a Libby Award for Most Animal Friendly movie, but did voters watch the entire flick?

Yes, Bella ate vegetarian meals throughout the movie like Gardenburgers, spinach salad, and mushroom ravioli, but that may be where the animal friendliness ended.

The “vegetarian vampires” were the biggest paradox. Vegetarian to these blood sucking guys and gals meant avoiding human flesh and eating animals instead-which in our world of daylight and non Topaz colored eyed humans is the very contradiction of a vegetarian.

A deer is killed at the beginning of the movie. Characters wore fur in some scenes.

Is this the most liberal of animal friendly recognitions one can receive?

The winners were decided by a vote from peta2.org’s audience, so the readers may have automatically voted for the most popular movie that mentioned anything vegetarian or animal without doing their homework.

Personally, we cast our vote for the Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson big screen hit, Marley & Me, which used rescue dogs on the set.

Will Ellen And Portia’s Compassion Rub Off On Samantha Ronson?

Declare Yourself Rebirth of Citizenship Inauguration Kick-off Event in Washington

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi threw a big birthday bash for themselves this weekend.

Both ladies’ birthdays are very close together, Ellen turning 51 on January 26 and Portia turning 36 on January 31.

Lots of celebrities were on the invite list, like Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox and her husband David Arquette, Drew Barrymore, Sacha Baron Cohen and Ben Stiller.

A vegetarian meal was served, of course, and DJ Samantha Ronson, girlfriend of Lindsay Lohan, provided the tunes.

Yes, THE Samantha Ronson, who was upset because Californians voted to approve Proposition 2, a measure to improve the conditions of certain farm animals, but also voted to approve defining marriage as between and man and a woman only.

She had blogged about the results:

“I guess people care more about farm animals than they do their fellow man, that’s really sad to me.”

“Yes, i am glad that the chickens will have more room and better conditions as they wait to die, but i just think it’s frightening that people show more compassion for tomorrow’s dinner than for the chef.”

“Yup, miss piggy and chicken little may rest easy, but gay people in florida and california can no longer get married…”

Ouch! PETA wrote to Ronson asking for her support for animals just as much as they would continue their support for equal rights for gays and lesbians.

Ellen and Portia are both vegans, have expressed their concerns for animal rights, and were supporters of Prop 2.

Hopefully, if Sam continues to rub elbows with the happy vegan couple, some of that compassion might rub off on her.

Eva Mendes Wants Threesome With Jennifer Aniston, Morrissey

The 10th Anniversary Party For Flaunt Magazine

Eva Mendes has gone wild.

Earlier we told you she wanted to pose naked with Morrissey for a People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) anti-fur ad.

Now she wants Jennifer Aniston to join them.

She joked she had a craving for a “PETA-Buddy and Jenny Sandwich,” when expressing her desire to get Aniston involved. Is that what they’re calling it these days?

Mendes, like many others, particularly men, was impressed with Aniston’s naked photo cover for GQ magazine. That, along with the fact that Aniston’s new movie, Marley & Me, is about a dog who helps a couple cope with life, is the reason Eva thinks Jen is picture perfect for the job.

“Jennifer is currently going naked to promote a film about what wonderful companions and teachers dogs are,” Mendes said. “And it is just one small step from there to advocating for the fair and ethical treatment of all animals.”

Three is a crowd, but if it’s for the sake of animal rights, close might still be comfy.
