Sarah Silverman "The Bedwetter"

PETA is kicking off the annual World’s Sexiest Vegetarian contest and funny former bedwetter Sarah Silverman has some stiff competition, competing against the likes of women like Alicia Silverstone, Lea Michele and Erykah Badu.

Who doesn’t love a woman who can throw humor into a poignant story that involved slaughtering animals, which ultimately caused her to give them up?

From her book, The Bedwetter, Silverman writes on the experience of watching a turkey being killed on a neighbor’s farm:

“Without realizing it, I had sentenced that turkey to death, and while maybe this sort of thing gave fat British monarchs a rush, to me it was horrifying.”

Although he has been known in the fashion community for his use of leather, starting in September, those pieces will be discontinued and he will look for non-leather alternatives to use in his designs.

On his blog, Barlett, explained the decision came after reading Alicia Silverstone‘s vegan diet and lifestyle book, “The Kind Diet.”

“I had recently read Alicia Silverstone’s great book “The Kind Diet” and started to come to terms with the impact of meat eating on myself, on the animals who are being “factory farmed” and on the environment.”

Alicia Silverstone’s “Time Stands Still” Vegan Costumes

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, May 18th, 2010 in Actresses, Business, Fashion.

 Time Stands Still Broadway Opening Night - Arrivals & Curtain Call

Alicia Silverstone dressed cruelty-free during her performance of Time Stands Still, and she recently took to her blog to discuss some of the companies the play’s costume designer, Rita Ryack, patronized to find outfits for Silverstone’s character, Mandy.

You may have heard of Alternative Outfitters, home to vegan shoes, handbags and other accessories.

Ryack shopped there, as well as Anthropologie, which she loved because of its use of natural fibers.

“I do worry about synthetics a little, though – because who knows what goes into their production?” Ryack said.

There are many synethic materials some advise against wearing, due to the chemicals involved in the production and finishing.

The best natural vegan fabric?

Cotton!

Ryack also liked using Etsy stores because they helped small businesses.
