Sharing the spotlight with the vegetarian singer is her dog Ace.

“He seems like one in a million, but unfortunately, he’s not,” Carrie says. “Four million great dogs like him end up in shelters and breed rescues every year.”

Amy Winehouse Cats Go To Feline Homeless Shelter

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, February 16th, 2010 in Animal Issues, Female Singers.

Amy Winehouse is escorted down the street after leaving the birthday party of Dionne Bromfield, Amy's Goddaughter, at the Shoreditch House

Not even 30 years old and she’s already a crazy cat lady.

Amy Winehouse has opened her home to several cats over the past months.

Now that she’s leaving her home in London, she’s decided to dump the kitties at the local shelter.

“Amy was pretty upset about it because she loved them dearly, but she had to give them up,” a source told The Sun. “They were climbing all over the place, breeding and generally getting out of control.”

But isn’t “breeding,” and “out of control” usually what takes place at the Winehouse residence?

Thumbs up for Amy making the decision to invite animals into her life.

Thumbs down for not realizing the amount of time required to care for one, let alone multiple cats.

Thumbs up for taking the animals to the shelter instead of letting them run loose.

Thumbs…oh, never mind. Too much Amy Winehouse analyzing and you’ll have yourself in rehab.

Hopefully, Amy at least got the animals spayed or neutered and they all will find loving homes.

Cause there’s just not enough room for all of them in that beehive.

Oh, boy.

PETA can’t let a month go by without making controversy with naked people and/or sex and Joanna Krupa‘s latest ad, complementing her last Be An Angel For Animals poster, is stirring up conversation.

The Catholic League isn’t too happy about Joanna’s use of the cross when talking about sex, but Joanna has reassured officials that it’s just puppy dog love.

“It’s understandable that the Catholic League is wary of another sex scandal, but the sex we’re talking about pertains to dogs and cats,” Joanna said in a statement.

“As a practicing Catholic, I am shocked that the Catholic League is speaking out against my PETA ads, which I am very proud of. I’m doing what the Catholic Church should be doing, working to stop senseless suffering of animals, the most defenseless of god’s creation.”

Hopefully, Catholics will come to appreciate Joanna’s push to protect all of creation.

Let just hope she never wears that outfit to worship services.

Joanna Krupa “Be An Angel For Animals” Pet Adoption PETA Ad

A little bit of nakedness here and there never hurt anyone and certainly gets your attention for a good cause.

Dancing with the Stars competitor Joanna Krupa strips down to her wings to urge you to always adopt from a shelter.

According to the Humane Society of the United States, out of the 6-8 million dogs and cats who arrive at animal shelters every year, only 3-4 million of those are adopted.

You may not look as great in wings or on the dance floor as Joanna, but if you open your home to the animals in shelters waiting to be adopted, you’ll never be voted off the competition.

"I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!" Press Conference

He may already be viewed as a disgraced politician, but former Illinois governor  Rod Blagojevich really went to the dogs for a Halloween contest recently.

One dog owner dressed up his dog to resemble Blagojevich, complete with black toupee, for the event that benefited PAWS Chicago, Chicago’s largest non-profit, no kill humane shelter.

The event was sponsored by luxury pet boutique Tails in the City.

PAWS Chicago is the shelter that Oprah Winfrey chose to adopt her recent four legged additions.

Take a look at the video and decide for yourself.

Can this doggie take Blago’s place in the House?

Jessica Simpson-Real Girls Adopt Rescue Dogs

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, October 19th, 2009 in Animal Issues, Female Singers.

Jessica Simpson In-Store Signing at Dillard's in Frisco, Texas - March 8, 2008

Now that she has grieved over the loss of her beloved Daisy, Jessica Simpson is talking about the excitement of getting a new dog.

Contrary to what her clothing says, real girls don’t eat me, but at least real girls know the importance of adopting versus going to a breeder or kennel.

“Jessica loves dog, but she’s terrified of getting another small dog unless she gets a big dog, too,” her friend explains. “She’s looking at German shepherds or pit bulls and wants a rescue dog,” the Simpson spy tells In Touch.

With an estimated 6-8 million cats and dogs going to shelters every year and only 3-4 million being adopted…the numbers tell a sad story on their own.

Congrats to Jessica for making the right decision.

Justin Bieber is a rising R&B star from Canada with his latest album, My World, that includes his hit single, One Time, hitting the stores November 17.

Justin has teamed up with PETA to create this PSA advocating compassion to animals, which includes adoption.

“My Dad and I used to go and hang out … just go and visit the different animals and stuff,” Justin said. “It’s really important that people adopt. I really encourage going out to an animal shelter or a place where you can get a dog that has been abandoned or doesn’t have a home.”

Bet thousands of screaming teenage girl fans would love to be adopted by Justin, too.
