Kate Bush "50 Words For Snow"

Kate Bush has posed for a series of photos to promote her latest album, 50 Words For Snow.

Although the singer appears to be draped in animal fur for the advertisements, Bush assured fans she wore nothing but artificial.

In a statement to the press, Bush said, “We have recently taken some photos and I just want to pre-empt any concerns there might be, as I’m sure most of you will feel the same way as I do about wearing real fur. All the fur in these photos is synthetic.”

Anthony Bourdain "Medium Raw"

Anthony Bourdain has picked Playboy magazine to sound off his latest complaints about vegetarians and vegans.

Well, at least he’s still on our side when it comes to mass-produced food and factory farms.

He’s got choice words for both groups in between his love for sheep testicles, seal eyes and In-N-Out burgers.

On Vegetarians:
They make for bad travelers and bad guests. The notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, “I’m not interested,” or you’re unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don’t understand that, and I think it’s rude.
