PETA likes to host dozens of contests involving sexy people who don’t eat meat, and it’s time for the senior citizens to flaunt their thing, with the “Sexiest Vegetarian Over 50” contest.

The vegs over 50 are in good company, with celebs like Paul McCartney, Prince, James Cromwell, Russell Simmons, Cloris Leachman, and Emmylou Harris.

Sixty two year old Emmylou has been involved with animal organizations like the Best Friends Animal Society, recorded public service announcements on taking good care of your pets, and even runs a dog shelter in her hometown of Nashville, Tennessee.

If you’re a sexy veg and over 50, why not enter the contest?

The finalists will be narrowed down on July 24th, then readers can vote and the winner in both the male and female category will be announced August 24.

Those voted the sexiest receive a gift basket from Vegan Divine.

You’re taking the best steps toward living another century, lowering your health care costs, and looking great.

And it’s cool to tell the kids and grand kids, “When I was your age, worshipping seitan meant a completely different thing.”

Country music star Emmylou Harris extends her activism for animals far beyond her plate.

She runs a dog shelter in her native state of Tennessee and performed at a Best Friends For Animal Society event designed to raise money to help four legged creatures in all sorts of ways, including getting them adopted.

Now, she’s teaming up with PETA to remind everyone to get their pet spayed and neutered and invite them in your home instead of keeping them chained outside.

You can listen to Emmylou’s radio PSA if you’d like, and be reminded that for some of us, respect for animals goes beyond deciding not to put them in our mouths.

Vegetarian actress and star in the TV series “House,” Lisa Edelstein, attended the 15th Annual Lint Roller Party.

The Best Friends Animal Society threw the event in order to recognize individuals and organizations doing their part to improve the lives of animals.

The event was full of veggie vibe, as vegetarian Emmylou Harris gave a live performance and guest were treated to a gourmet vegetarian meal.

Some dogs got to walk the red carpet with celebrities, such as this one pictured with Edelstein.

Emmylou Harris will be performing tomorrow night to benefit the Best Friends Animal Society, an organization that serves to help four legged folks in all sorts of ways, including placing animals that were once considered “unadoptable,” into loving homes.

The 15th Annual Lint Roller Party will combine good music with good food. While enjoying her concert, guests will also be enjoying a gourmet vegetarian dinner.

Emmylou has several dogs and is a true animal lover, running a shelter where she lives in Tennessee. As a vegetarian, she won’t eat them either.

Awhile back, we told you how she wasn’t too fond of someone describing her like bacon-and saying she (as well as bacon) made everything better. Instead, she’d rather you tell her she’s like cheese.

Other bonuses at the event include an open bar, live and silent auction, and the opportunity to meet the cast of DogTown, a new television series on the National Geographic Channel.

Although country music legend Emmylou Harris just released a new album in June, she’s no stranger to the music industry and has been praised by the media-even when the praises weren’t exactly the type she was looking for.

Washington Post music critic Josh Freedom duLac once said: “Emmylou Harris is like bacon. She makes everything better.”

“Well, I don’t know if I like that,” she told Straight.com, “because I’m a vegetarian.”

“How about cheese?” she suggested.  “Let’s say cheese.”

The 61 year old Nashville, TN resident lives with her mother and also runs a dog shelter.

Her latest album, All I Intended To Be, features collaborations with Dolly Parton, Vince Gill, and Kate and Anna McGarrigle.

“It encompasses all the different hats I’ve worn—songwriting, doing covers, working with so many great people,” she said. “In a sense, it was a return to a sound that’s been with me throughout my career.”
