Vegetarian Star

Comedian Carol Leifer is one of the contestants on Celebrity Apprentice 3, which debuts on NBC March 14 at 9/8 c.

Leifer, who became a vegan last year, has decided to donate the $250,000 to Long Island North Shore Animal League if she wins the top prize.

“There is a huge pet overpopulation crisis in this country,” Leifer says in the video where she discusses her chosen charity. “Four million cats and dogs are euthanized every year. And as far as I’m concerned, that’s four million too many.”

Practicing what she preaches, Leifer and her partner have a total of seven rescue animals.

TV Squad asked what comedian Carol Leifer was doing on a reality TV show about serious business, Celebrity Apprentice.

“Doesn’t she seem like the type of person who would dump on reality shows (especially celebrity reality shows) rather than be on one?” said writer Bob Sassone.

Hopefully, the recently turned vegan funny woman won’t attempt to make DNA mutating Agent Orange chicken like Herschel Walker did.

When given the task of creating frozen meals for a large company, Walker chose to take charge, even though he was a vegetarian.

Despite so many successful veggie companies like BabyCakes and Linda McCartney foods, Herschel couldn’t see a group of suited carnivores enjoying a plant based meal.

Do you even have to be told he was fired?

If Carol is given the same challenge, she’ll surely opt for entrees everyone can enjoy.

The Celebrity Apprentice season premier airs March 14th on NBC.
