Mark Indelicato took to Twitter to express his feelings for circuses.

The Ugly Betty actor was moved by Olivia Munn‘s recent PETA ad protesting the use of elephants in the entertainment industry.

“Olivia Munn For Peta. I will NEVER go to the circus again. This has me in tears right now.”

“Stop animal abuse! We cannot just sit around and watch poor, innocent animals get harmed and tortured only for the entertainment of human.”

“And to think that even the CIRCUS, which is supposed to be so happy and joyful could do such a thing. Boycott places and things like this.”

“Thinking of writing a letter to the Wringling Brothers Circus to tell them what horrible, cruel, sick human beings they are.”

Meyer Glitzenstein & Crystal, a public interest law firm that created the Wildlife Advocacy Project, represents four animal interest groups–ASPCA, Animal Welfare Institute, Animal Protection Institute, Fund for Animals–and a former Ringling Brothers employee in a suit against Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey that alleges the entertainment group’s beating of elephants with bull hooks and keeping them chained constituted unlawful “take” of the endangered animals under the Endangered Species Act.

According to a site dedicated to the trial on behalf of Ringling Brothers, a judge granted a partial summary to Ringling Brothers, narrowing the case down to six elephants and ruling none of the Asian elephants born in the United States were subject to the law.

Vanessa Williams “Ugly Betty” Fur Real Or Fur Fake

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, September 30th, 2009 in Actresses, Fur, Fur Real Or Fur Fake.

Vanessa Williams seen on the set of Ugly Betty in downtown Manhattan, New York City

Ugly Betty star Vanessa Williams was seen on the set of the ABC television series sporting this jacket with fur trim.

We hope Vanessa doesn’t take after her co-star Becki Newton, who adored her leather with fur trim vintage jacket.

Mode Magazine is all about trends, but fashion guru Wilhelmina Slater should know real fur is so many seasons ago.

What do you think?

Fur real or fur fake?

Becki Newton Of “Ugly Betty” Smelled Real Ugly In Fur

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, September 18th, 2009 in Actresses, Fashion, Fur.

On location with Ugly Betty in NYC

Becki Newton plays the catty receptionist Amanda Tanen for MODE magazine on ABC’s Ugly Betty.

MODE is all about the fashion, and Becki has admitted to wearing some pretty ugly fashion, in our opinion.

Of her $14 vintage leather jacket with fur trim collar, Becki said, “After a few years of wearing it, I realized it didn’t smell that good. But I continued to wear it, because I loved it.”

Fur and leather don’t smell good?

Trust us, Becki, they don’t look good either.

Ugly Betty’s Ana Ortiz: How About A Veg, Eco Baby!

Written by Vegetarian Star on Sunday, June 21st, 2009 in Actresses, Environment-Eco-Green.

Marriage Equality Rally in New York City

Ugly Betty star Ana Ortiz is about to give birth any minute now!

She recently chatted with Celebrity Baby Blog on her plans to bring the child up as eco friendly as possible.

“And for me, I’ve been really lucky to get all of this yummy organic clothing, and my nursery is all organic and eco-friendly. My daughter’s just going to be really hip! My goal is to be as eco-conscious as possible: There’s so much out there for parents who want to do that. I plan to keep her eco-friendly as she gets older. I think we all sort of have to do it. I’m lucky enough to be able to do it, so we just have to drive the market toward it so it becomes more possible to make and more accessible to consumers. People will realize how much easier and better it is to be local and organic. But it’s just not available to everyone right now.”

We’d like to do a little PSA for vegetarianism and remind Ana how easy it is to be EXTREMELY eco friendly by just going veg!

She and baby would lighten their carbon footprint tremendously by taking meat off the plate. By going vegetarian, they’d help reduce the number of livestock gas emissions and free up land space to grow plant crops for humans, versus farms animals. Not to mention what a better way to bring a baby in the world and teach it about kindness than instructing it to refrain from partaking in the cruelty of killing and eating animals.

Go veg, Ana. There’s nothing ugly about that!

Skin Care For Athletes is an all natural, organic skin care line that does not contain any animal or animal byproducts. Recently the company was invited by GBK productions to attend the 2008 Golden Goggle Awards and present their goodies in the VIP Gift Bag.

Several athletes and celebrities were there to enjoy it, including “Ugly Betty” star Ana Ortiz, who plays Betty’s older (and very sexy) sister, Hilda.

“I love[it], love the smell and it feels so nice,” she was quoted as saying of the Tri-Body Moisturizing Spray.

It’s fantastic to see a cruelty free product being given props by celebrities, such as when Whoopi Goldberg was excited to hear the PureOlogy product she was using was vegan.

We at the Veg Star personally like Aubrey Organics products. Most are vegan, and of course none are tested on animals.

Do you have a beauty or personal care product that’s cruelty free you enjoy?

Maxim Hot 100 Party

Ugly Betty actress Rebecca Romijn is expecting a set of twins with husband Jerry O’Connell and according to Female First, she’s definitely craving soy cheese for three. Hubby O’Connell said:

“Lemonade always has to be in our fridge. That’s my job. Also soy cream cheese. It’s crazy, right? Can’t be cream cheese. Soy cream cheese. Do you know how difficult it is to find soy cream cheese? It’s usually in the corner of the supermarket someplace!”

Hard to find soy products in some supermarkets?! You don’t have to tell us about it. It would be cool if she kept craving soy products after the twins are delivered.
