“Most of the girls that I date are vegetarians . . . They always leave me, but stay vegans.”

Russell Simmons to the New York Post at the Bold Native premiere he hosted. According to Peta’s president’s opinion, he’s doing his job right. Ingrid Newkirk once said vegetarians and vegans should date meat eaters…and dump them once they’ve converted to start working on another person.
