Vegetarian Star

We know Whoopi Goldberg likes vegan beauty products, and now we know she’s a fur-free beauty queen as well.

Legends, a play that had some trouble getting itself on the Broadway stage, finally made its debut recently starring Whoopi, and drag queen faves Charles Busch and Lypsinka.

Pictured here you’ll find the queens covered in what appears to be fur, but just like a lot of other fake things about drag queens, those coats are far from the real thing, courtesy of Donna Salyers’ Fabulous Furs.

PETA Senior Vice President Dan Mathews said, “When Lypsinka heard about all the mink that was going to be used in the show, she asked PETA to help make sure that the fur was as fake as the leading ladies.”

PETA directed Lypsinka to Donna’s Faux Furs, who’s furs have been worn by celebrities such as Kellie Pickler.

Let’s give it up for Lypsinka for remembering the animals!

The one night only revival of Legends was performed at New York’s Town Hall and proceeds benefited Friends In Deed, a crisis center for people with life threatening illnesses.

Even if you’ve already watched and formed an opinion on the PETA ad NBC officials declared too sexy to show during the Super Bowl, you might want to have a look at Whoopi Goldberg doing her version.

On a recent episode of The View, Goldberg grabs her basket of cabbage, broccoli and other green vegetables and puts on a sexy show that’s almost too steamy for daytime television.

At last year’s Tony Awards, the comedian expressed excitement to try vegan hair products from PureOlogy  It’s no surprise she’d want to shake her stuff and show that everything’s sexier without animal products.

Super Bowl officials, it’s time to reconsider your decision. Whoopi’s ad is one that shouldn’t be nixed.

Move over Oprah. You’re not the only one who can give out cool gifts to your audience members who just happen to plan their trip to Chicago during the right week.

The divas at the daytime talk show, “The View,” Barbara Walters, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Whoopi Goldberg, and Sherri Shepherd treated their fans in the audience on Wednesday to a $150 gift card to ebags.com to pick out a Big Buddha Handbag.

Big Buddha’s bags come in a variety of colors and styles, but best of all, some of them, like the Bonnie Bag are VEGAN, made with synthetic PVC to make them look like leather.

Sigh…If only you could plan a trip to Los Angeles at the right time.

Whoopi Goldberg hosted the 62nd Annual Tony Awards this year with PureOlogy Serious Colour Care being the haircare sponsor of the event.

Pureology Products are marketed as both cruelty free and vegan and a source says Miss Goldberg was very excited to learn a product she was trying on that night, NanoWorks Shampoo and Condition, was vegan.

Although we are not sure if Goldberg is a vegetarian, we surely hope this excitement spreads into other areas of her life and she chooses more products that are vegan, green, and earth and animal friendly for her lifestyle!
