Rachael Ray Welcomes Cybill Shepherd To Her Show

Recently Bruce Springsteen announced he regrets making a deal with Wal-Mart to exclusively sell his Greatest Hits CD because the company has so many issues with workers’ rights, something he’s long been a champion for.

Springsteen isn’t the first celebrity to sign an inappropriate pact with a company who’s practices differ from their own.

Cybill Shepherd, best known for her role starring alongside Bruce Willis on the ABC 80s drama Moonlighting, agreed to promote eating meat for the Beef Industry Council in back in 1987.

The slogan was  “Real food for real people!” Sounds like someone did a spin-off of that 20 years later when designing the t-shirt Jessica Simpson once wore.

Cybill was removed from the campaign after she admitted she was a vegetarian. 

Hello? Why do the campaign to begin with?
