Vegetarian 101 // Animal-Friendly Celebrities

Celebrities Speak Out for Farmed Animals!

Page 1 | 2 | 3 | 4

Jane Goodall: "Thousands of people who say they ‘love' animals sit down once or twice a day to enjoy the flesh of creatures who have been utterly deprived of everything that could make their lives worth living and who endured the awful suffering and the terror of the abattoirs."
Joaquin Phoenix: "Animal rights is a part of my everyday life. When you live by example, you create a certain level of awareness. Friends of mine—people I have never discussed animal rights or vegetarianism with—are adopting vegetarian habits because they see it." Video
Josh Hartnett: "I gave up meat when I was 12. … One day I was cutting up a chicken for my mom, and I hit a tumor with the knife. There was [pus] and blood all over the place. That was enough for me."
Kim Basinger: "If you could feel or see the suffering, you wouldn't think twice. Give back life. Don't eat meat."
Mary Tyler Moore: "It may take a while, but there will probably come a time when we look back and say, ‘Good Lord, do you believe that in the 20th century and early part of the 21st, people were still eating animals?'"
Mickey (Maroon 5): Interview
Moby: "Intellectually, human beings and animals may be different, but it's pretty obvious that animals have a rich emotional life and that they feel joy and pain. It's easy to forget the connection between a hamburger and the cow it came from. But I forced myself to acknowledge the fact that every time I ate a hamburger, a cow had ceased to breathe and moo and walk around." Web Feature
Morrissey: "Nobody can come up with a good argument for eating animals—nobody can. People as some kind of a joke say, well, ‘It's tasty,' but it's only tasty once you garnish it and you put salt and pepper, and you cook it, and you have to do 300 things to it to disguise its true taste. If you put garnishes on a chair or fabric, it would probably taste quite nice." Web Feature
Nellie McKay: Web Feature
Pamela Anderson: "Chickens, pigs, and other animals—they are interesting individuals with personalities and intelligence. But if farmers did to dogs and cats what they do to animals they're raising for food, they could be prosecuted for animal abuse and locked up." Ad | Video | Web Feature
