Quantcast Vegetarian StarPerez Hilton

The Internet’s infamous nasty gossip blogger Perez Hilton is taking time off from his usual cattiness to say some really good things about what citizens in the U.S., especially those residing in states like Hilton’s birthplace in Florida, can do to help stop laws from passing that would make it illegal to film factory farm abuse while undercover.

Lawmakers in states like these have been influenced by officials in agriculture that are getting scared of what videos like the ones PETA and Mercy for Animals have routinely used to bring charges of animal cruelty against farm workers who blatantly violate animal welfare laws.

“Whether you’re a meat eater or a vegan, you can stand behind the humane treatment of animals in the meat trade,” Hilton says in the video. “There are now bills pending in several states–including Senate bill 1246 in my homestate of Florida, that would criminalize the filming of animals on factory farms. What are they trying to hide? Do these farms house famous animals like Miss Piggy and Babe and these laws just seek to protect them from the paparazzi?”

Perez Hilton "Save The Seals"

Perez Hilton "Save The Seals"

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton is one several stars posing in a PETA Save The Seals campaign.

Perez has voiced his opinions on the animal rights group before, saying although he didn’t agree with everything it stood for, he still found common ground. “I don’t support PETA—I support some of the things that PETA does. I support that they’re kind of like me, in that they’re loud and sometimes obnoxious. Underneath that, a lot of the things they do and other things I don’t agree with.”

Good to know Perez supports ending seal hunts.

“I don’t understand why they have to commit this act of brutality and barbarity,” Perez said. “It’s not necessary.”

There’s no better way to get loud and obnoxious, Perez.

BTW, Perez is looking better than ever, having slimmed down thanks to some better eating and exercise sessions.

Has this dude been stocking up on his veggies, too?

Watch the video below for more of Perez’s thoughts.

Perez Hilton Thoughts On PETA

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, September 19th, 2009 in Animal Issues, Authors.

Perez Hilton Presents Tour - New York

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton was interviewed by justout.com, when he was asked what his thoughts were on the animal rights group People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

Perez thinks PETA is a lot like him. Read to find out why.

JO: You support PETA, which directly opposes biomedical HIV research; you also support HIV research and advocacy groups such as Keep A Child Alive. Do you personally oppose biomedical HIV research? Should the gay community support or oppose biomedical research?
PH: You know, it wouldn’t be fair to say I support PETA—it’d be fair to say I support some of the things they say, but at the same time, fuck—I eat meat and own some leather shoes. I don’t wear fur, though. You know, I’m a human being, and human beings are walking contradictions! I think we should explore all avenues for finding a cure for HIV and AIDS—and all diseases! Like stem cell research—I’m all for it!

JO: If biomedical research shouldn’t be opposed, why do you support PETA, who believes research should be stopped, and not another animal welfare organization that is pro-research?
PH: I don’t support PETA—I support some of the things that PETA does. I support that they’re kind of like me, in that they’re loud and sometimes obnoxious. Underneath that, a lot of the things they do and other things I don’t agree with.

Both Perez and PETA are loud and obnoxious?

LOL! Separated at birth.

Perez Hilton Gone Vegetarian? Not Quite.

House Of Mollinari Birthday Extravaganza

Our ears should be ringing off the hook now, because someone’s been talking about us!

Cleveland Vegetarian Examiner Kaitlin Miller wrote up a post on Vegetarian Star she titled, “Has Perez Hilton landed a vegetarian site? Not Quite!”

Kaitlin was humorously referring to who’s basically the founder of gossip websites, Mario Armando Lavandeira, better know as Perez Hilton.com.

“Vegetarianstar.com is a celebrity gossip site very closely mocking Perez Hilton’s popular trash-talking yet humorous blog, except that it is strictly relating to vegetarianism. Fans can track a plethora of different categories, submit polls, comment on photos, articles, and breaking news, and browse around for the newest gossip.”

“Eye-catching headlines that contain big Hollywood names are attracting viewers worldwide, like “Heather Mills Making Vegan Dog Food,” or “Jimmy Kimmel Does The Raunchy Tofu on Late Night Television.” I don’t know about you, but seeing the words “raunchy” and “tofu” together definitely intrigues me.”

Yeah, tofu does it for us, too Kaitlin.

Sorry to disappoint those who thought this was a post talking about Perez Hilton getting his raunchy on with tofu. But when he does…you better believe we’ll be telling you about it.

Tom Cruise Orders Veg Plate At White House Correspondents’ Dinner

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, May 11th, 2009 in Actors, Food & Drink.

Tom Cruise at Valkyrie premiere, JapanSaturday night’s White House Correspondents’ dinner brought many celebrities to the table, including Eva Longoria, Natalie Portman, and actor Tom Cruise.

Not even the Secret Service can prevent the gossip columnists from getting the dish on what people ate, and it was reported that Cruise ordered the vegetarian entree.

Does this mean Tom of Tomkat is going veg?

If so, we’ll go on Oprah and jump on the couch with him as he exclaims, “I love this diet Oprah. I love this diet so much.”

We would never veg OUT someone like PerezHilton.com does, but our speculations were right on target for Ginnifer Goodwin after it was discovered she had a habit of picking up food from Vegan Glory.

Tom is so vocal, if he does go veg, we’ll all know soon.
