Known more for activities
such as fur coat painting and milk mustache mocking,
every year PETA likes to lets its vegan hair down a
bit, have a little fun and also point out some of the
plusses of vegetarianism… namely, the famous,
beautiful, rich and sexy people who are doing it. They
offer quite an extensive list of celebrities to choose
from on their site, including Avril Lavigne, Andre 3000,
Prince, David Duchovny, Reese Witherspoon, Shania Twain…
well, you get the idea. The celebrity world is filled
with flesh free folk.
So who won this year’s poll? The envelope please…
This year for the men: Chris Martin. The lead singer
for the popular group Coldplay is also well known for
being Mr. Gweneth Paltrow, another vegan. Which makes
it kind of strange that they named their recently born
daughter Lambchop (OK, I kid… their daughter is
actually named a very vegetarian-friendly Apple).
And on the women’s side? (insert sound of rustling
envelope) Carrie Underwood, a country singer who first
became “known” through American Idol (where
she wore a “V is for Vegetarian” T-shirt).
I wonder if Paula Abdul finds that sexy?
Anyhow, over 13,000 people participated in the poll.
You can find all the celebrities who “took part”
on PETA’s official Website (http://www.peta.org).
