Who's a vegetarian?  It looks like everyone is

I know, I know, this doesn't really have anything to do with movies as such but hey I have just started back at uni and I am running low on time and ideas so you will just have to live with it.  But anyway, it seems like all celebrities are vegetarians and/or into yoga.  I don't know why, it just seems to be the way it is, I guess it's just a better class of people.  Oh and I'm pretty sure some of them do it just to lose weight.  I was playing the Celebrity stock market as one does and perusing the celebrity profiles to see who I wanted to buy.  I began to notice a theme, they all seemed to be vegetarians, well not all of them but you know what I mean.  I then did an internet search on trusty google and found out some other actors and actresses who are vegetarians or vegans which I have included and for your enjoyment I have also included a list of some facts about the meat processing industry that will really make you hungry. 

Here is a list of some of the actors and actresses that are vegetarians or vegans (some may not be correct but hey, like I care):

  • Casey Affleck
  • Gillian Anderson
  • Alec Baldwin
  • Drew Barrymore
  • Kim Basinger
  • Amber Benson (Yay, she's cool)
  • Elizabeth Berkley (Showgirls :) )
  • Orlando Bloom
  • Kirk Cameron
  • John Cleese
  • Racheal Leigh Cook
  • Penelope Cruz (Grrr, hate that bitch)
  • Willem Dafoe (he, he, Willem)
  • Danny DeVito
  • Cameron Diaz
  • David Duchovny
  • Jorja Fox (Yay CSI)
  • Michael J. Fox
  • Sadie Frost
  • Edward Furlong
  • Jennie Garth
  • Richard Gere
  • Woody Harrelson
  • Josh Hartnett
  • Dustin Hoffmann
  • Ashley Judd
  • Jude Law
  • Tobey Maguire
  • Sir Ian Mckellen
  • Gwyneth Paltrow
  • Guy Pearce
  • Joaquin Phoenix
  • Rain Phoenix
  • Summer Phoenix (As if they wouldn't be with hippy names like that)
  • Natalie Portman
  • Julia Roberts
  • Brooke Shields
  • Alicia Silverstone
  • Lisa Simpson (had to include it)
  • Julia Stiles
  • Tiffani-Amber Thiessen (There's a couple of Saved by the Bell people here)
  • Jonathan Taylor Thomas
  • Liv Tyler
  • Kate Winslet
  • Reese Witherspoon

 

And here is the other promised list.  FYI, I am not trying to force my opinion on you, I am just messing :)

  • Instead of water, pigs are often given liquid waste drained from manure pits and cattle feed contains things like chicken manure, sewage sludge and dead cats.

  • Over 45 billion animals worldwide are killed for food every year.

  • 860 million animals die of mistreatment before ever reaching the slaughterhouse.

  • 90% of all chickens are infected with cancer at the time of slaughter.

  • 90,000 cows and calves are slaughtered every 24 hours and 14,000 chickens every minute in the US.
