Vegetarian Star

Tattoo artist Henk Schiffmacher has created skin designs for celebrities such as members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Robbie Williams, and Curt Cobain.

Now he’s becoming a celebrity himself, starring in PETA Netherlands’ ad “Ink, Not Mink.”

“I’ve seen the slaughter of silver foxes with electrodes and the gassing of minks – and piles of dead bodies,” Schiffmacher said. “And it ain’t a pretty sight.”

“We hope that Henk’s ad will remind people that, while getting a tattoo can sting a bit, we can choose whether or not to get one,” said PETA Europe Director Robbie LeBlanc. “Animals tortured and killed for their skins and fur don’t have a choice – and they pay with their lives.”

We’ve included the video Schiffmacher stars in, but only our Dutch speaking friends and others who know the language will be able to understand it. However, we can all understand pain, regardless of the language we speak. And we can all at least see Schiffmacher making a difference.

A list of top vegetarian friendly rehabs has been released by PETA and several of the centers have catered to many celebrities, including Mel Gibson. While we don’t know if any of these celebs actually requested non-meat meals during their tenures, we definitely know where Amy Winehouse’s next stop should be if she decides to go vegetarian. Here’s what she might enjoy:

Passages (California): Hummus, tabouleh, pasta primavera, vegetarian lasagne, wild mushroom pasta, vegetarian tacos and burritos, and veggie burgers. Mel Gibson stayed here.

The Meadows (Arizona): Tofu, veggie burgers, and vegetarian casseroles. Kate Moss, Eric Benet, Mike Tyson, Elle McPherson, Tara Palmer-Tompkinson, Paul Gascoigne, Ron Wood, Kerry Katona, Michael Barrymore, and Whitney Houston have all done rehab time here.

Cottonwood de Tucson (Arizona, yes the The Grand Canyon State has 2 of the favorites!): Baked rigatoni with spinach, wasabi mashed potatoes with snap peas, veggie pizza, veggie fried rice with spring rolls, portobello mushrooms stuffed with polenta, vegetable tostadas, green corn tostadas. Ron Wood, Geri “Ginger Spice” Halliwell, and Robbie Williams have all said, “Yes, yes, yes,” to here.
