Vegetarian Star

True Blood actress Kristin Bauer has written a letter to the European Union commission, asking that it uphold a decision to ban the sale of all animal-tested cosmetics by 2013.

“No animal should suffer and die to test lipstick or eye shadow,” writes Bauer. “That’s why I’m writing to urge you to keep the European Union on the path to modern, innovative cosmetics testing. Please maintain the EU’s 2013 deadline for banning the marketing of animal-tested cosmetics.”

Kristin Bauer and her newlywed beau, musician Abri Van Statten, have a love for animals and the environment in common, as they’re both working with whale conservation.

“Right now, Abri and I are working with the International Fund for Animal Welfare and Pierce and Keely Brosnan to protect whales… (A key International Whaling Commission) vote is in the next two weeks,” Kristin told the Milwaukee Wisconsin Journal Sentinel.

Kristin is probably referring to the vote by the IWC on whether to lift the 25 year ban on commercial whaling.

The signature hand gesture was created by the International Fund for Animal Welfare’s Tails for Whales campaign.

True Blood‘s Kristin Bauer has recorded a public service announcement for the International Fund for Animal Welfare’s campaign Tails for Whales.

The campaign was designed to show governments around the world how many people support protecting dolphins in Japan.

One way concerned activists can do this is by taking a photograph of themselves making a dolphin “tail” with their hands (for better pictorial explanation, visit the website), and uploading it to the Tailsforwhales.org site.

Besides being counted as an activist, you can also add your picture to your blog or personal web page or any other media source that gets people to take a second look and asks, “What’s this about?”

Kristin Bauer from HBO’s True Blood is so close to being vegetarian, we’re going to award her an Honorable Mention.

The actress recently attended the Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine’s 25th Anniversary Gala where she revealed she only eats meat about twice a year.

“I find it hard to find the words on how much it pains me,” Kristin said regarding how some animals are abused or mistreated.

The two times she does eat meat are at Christmas gatherings with the family.

“But I buy the free range meat at least,” she added.

Looking forward to the day when Kristin announces she’s making a seitan loaf or Tofurky for the next family gathering.
