The event is an annual fundraiser for the sanctuary which is home to dozens of chickens, pigs, cows, goats and other rescued farm animals that are available to interact with and get to know during its touring season.

Olivia Munn appeared on The Today Show for St. Patrick’s day with host Hota Kotb.

The topic turned to the subject of whether or not some brides were happy with their proprosals. According to one poll, 1 in 4 women hated their proposals.

Kotb begins discussing her proposal, which involved a horse-drawn carriage in New York’s Central Park.

Yes, she dared to mention she enjoyed a horse-drawn carriage to the same Olivia Munn who’s spoken out about several animal welfare issues, including circus animals and horse-drawn carriages. Here’s how the conversation went:

“Did you guys just watch an 80s chick flick and then go off, and then did you realize that it’s really horrible to ride in those carriages?” Munn asked.

Guys, if you’re going to take Olivia Munn out for Valentine’s Day, you better not show up in a horse and buggy.

When asked by PETA what her perfect idea for a V-Day date was, Munn answered: “The least romantic thing to do in New York or any other city is going on horse-drawn carriage rides. … [I]f you knew the pain and misery these beautiful animals endure just to fulfill the false symbol of uniting two hearts, it would actually break your heart. To see the horses in the harsh, cold weather being forced to cart people around the city is the farthest thing from romantic in my opinion.”

“When I realized what went into the fur on your gloves or on your jacket, what goes into killing those animals, it ripped my heart out. You don’t have to kill an animal because you want to be hot and fly. It’s not the 16th century anymore.  We’ve got central heating for God’s sake. And you can get a fake fur coat. I have one. It’s fabulous.”

–Taraji P. Henson, at a party held at Stella McCartney‘s 14th Street Boutique in New York recently. Other guests in attending the bash thrown by PETA include Tim Gunn and Olivia Munn.

Henson looks stunning in any photo, but if you’re interested in seeing, ahem, more of her, view her NSFW anti-fur ad below.

Olivia Munn‘s reporting on the passing Proposition B, a new law in Missouri which passed with 52% of the “yes” vote that sets down stricter rules for puppy breeders, finds her interviewing one opponent to the new measure who compares it to Obamacare and cites humans are treated the same way as puppies in mills are all the time.

When Munn asks how, the opponent replies that humans are housed in apartments that are stacked just like crates in mills.

But, as Munn insists, most apartments don’t allow your neighbor to sh*t on your head just because he’s housed above you, something puppy mills have failed to accommodate for.

Another hilarious satire from The Daily Show.

When Olivia Munn was having trouble with a “bitch,” she sought the advice of none other than dog expert Cesar Millan.

It wasn’t that Munn was in need of purchasing dog training classes or lessons in become the leader of the pack, she was just irate at the female animal activist sitting next to her who just wants to get rid of puppy mills.

Milan quickly gives Munn a lesson in behavior and viewers a lesson on how they should view puppy mills if they love dogs.

“Puppy Mills reflect the wrong way in America,” Millan begins. “If America is going to call itself a dog lover country, we must treat dogs humanely.”

DoSomething.org lists 11 facts about puppy mills. Most Americans would agree that housing dogs in crowded and unsantitary conditions that pave the way for illness and infection is no humane way to treat a dog. According to Do Something, “The average puppy mill has between 65 and 75 animals housed in hutch-style cages with wire floors. The waste drops to the ground below and accumulates beneath the cage where flies and other gross things fester.”

Ruff! Get ‘em Cesar.

Olivia Munn PETA

Olivia Munn joined protesters from Last Chance for Animals and PETA in Los Angeles  Staples Center recently to speak against Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey, which is performing in the city through Sunday.

Munn said, “When you look at something like the circus and everyone’s laughing and there’s color and there’s music and everything seems so great. But when you go right behind that door and they’re in these crates all day long and then they’re getting shocked and beat just so they can get up and dance around on a ball … it was just so sickening.”
