Vegetarian Star

Winter brings freezing temperatures and a hoard of women rushing to the stores to buy fur to keep warm.

Maybe that’s why PETA chose this time of year to name the Worst Dressed Celebrity, based on that star’s tendency to put on another critter’s hide before leaving home.

Catherine Zeta-Jones, Elizabeth Hurley and Rihanna are expected to find themselves on the list of nominees that readers will choose online.

The “loser” will be announced in February by vegetarian fashion designer Stella McCartney.

Actress Christina Ricci claims those embarrassing titles work.

“I never meant to hurt nor anger anyone with my insensitivity,” said Ricci after being nominated. “For what it is worth, I have received the message loud and clear and will not be wearing fur in the future. I apologise for my offensive actions.”

Wishing everyone on the list best of luck–in changing their attitudes and hearts.

She may be strict when it comes to what goes into the childrens’ bodies, but on the issue of what’s outside, Madonna appears lax.

Madge was named “Worst Dressed” Celebrity of 2009 in a poll where PETA readers voted, based on the amount of animal clothing the celebs wore.

Madonna beat out other fur wearing celebs, such as Maggie Gyllenhaal, Kanye West, and Elizabeth Hurley.

From peta.org:

“When you see Madonna in fur, you realize why nobody has copied her style since 1984. We know that she’s on the prowl for a young cub, but someone needs to tell Madge that wearing fur doesn’t make you a cougar.”

You can see who else topped the list, as well as “vote again” if you don’t agree with the results at peta.org.
