Vegetarian Star

“I love New York but this is no place for a beautiful horse.”

“It’s near 1am now an these poor horses are lined up in the center of time square…against all the traffic, noise, fumes, and people.”

“@PamelaDAnderson I’m in NY right now and it is devastating to see these horses on these busy streets at all hours. Wish this would end:(“‘

—Lea Michele, in series of Twitter messages about horse-drawn carriages in New York City. Lea agreed with Pamela Anderson and a campaign that wants to put eco-friendly vintage electric cars on the roads and take horses off. A diva knows best! Rachael Berry couldn’t be more right!

Olivia Wilde has everything the doctor ordered, as the House actress made the cut, proving not only her vegan bolognese is the bomb-diggity. Wilde enjoys picking up items from the Farmers Market and has said most of her veggie nights shared with her Italian husband are filled with pasta.

“It’s devastating. You see them in the rain, you see them in the snow. You see them in traffic like a car. I wouldn’t go out in that weather. I wouldn’t walk around in it. But they have to. They’re animals. They’re not cars.”

—Lea Michele, during an interview with PETA on the conditions carriage horses work in in New York city. A group called NYCLASS agrees that horses who pull carriages aren’t cars. That’s why they’d like to replace them with real vehicles.

Lea Michele PETA

Lea Michele is starring in her 2nd PETA ad that draws attention to horse-drawn carriages in New York city.

A group called NYCLASS is calling for the complete ban of horse-drawn carriages and instead replacing them with green replica electric-hybrid cars. Not only would this solve the odor problem that the horse stables give off (which some stories include filling up a school cafeteria with the funk and giving children rashes and other health problems from airborne manure particles), the cars are also able to keep pace with other vehicles on the street, reducing the chance for accidents. And finally, the horses will get rest.

“Imagine for a moment that you’re forced to do hard physical labor all day, seven days a week–whether it’s sweltering hot or freezing cold outside,” Lea says. “At the end of the day, instead of relaxing on an easy chair or sleeping in a comfortable bed, you are locked in a tiny closet all night long. That’s what it’s like for horses who are forced to pull carriages in New York City.”

“Don’t get taken for a ride. Please boycott horse-drawn carriages.”

A video of Michele with footage from horse stables can be seen below.

Glee may have sustainable eating, veg-friendly actresses like Lea Michele and Jenna Ushkowitz in the cast, but the show could do a little better when it comes to greening the set. At least a recent episode featuring Gwyneth Paltrow as the substitute glee club leader in “The Substitute” could have.

In a behind the scenes clip, Zach Woodlee, co-producer/choreographer of the show estimates they went through 300 umbrellas or so to film a scene putting a modern twist on “Singing In The Rain” by adding some Rihanna lyrics to it. This was because the umbrellas kept breaking during different takes.

For the rest of the season, the cast is ordered to only buy eco-friendly umbrellas, made from things like recycled aluminum and steel, bamboo handles and 100% PET bottles like the Tot eco’Brella.

Then, maybe we’ll stand under their umbrellas, ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh.

More eco-friendly brellas at Treehugger. Watch the entire scene of Glee’s “Singing In The Rain” with their many umbrellas below.
