The veggie voters have spoken, and OutKast's Andre 3000
and actor Alicia Silverstone have been selected
as PETA’s 2004 “World’s
Sexiest Vegetarians,”
narrowly edging out a host of other veggie Valentinos and Venuses,
including Noah Wyle, Pamela Anderson,
Charlotte Ross, Kim Basinger,
Moby, and previous winners Tobey Maguire,
Josh Hartnett, Lauren Bush, Natalie
Portman, and Shania Twain.
Celebrities cite many reasons for forgoing flesh foods, from avoiding
the cruelty to animals that is inherent in meat production to improving
their health and energy levels to helping the environment by not
contributing to hog- and chicken-farm pollution.
Silverstone, who shot to fame on the big screen in Clueless
and recently starred in the critically acclaimed TV hit Miss
Match, has said, “Once I became vegan, my nails were
stronger, my skin was glowing, I lost a lot of weight. Whoooaa!
Is this like great karma or what?” She goes on to say, “Going
vegan is the single best thing I’ve done in my life. I am
so much happier and confident. I made a decision based on my moral
beliefs.”
OutKast’s Andre 3000 has taken the music world by storm, landing
a Grammy for Best Rap Album and multiple number one hits on the
Billboard charts. When he was asked recently how he would spend
his last day on Earth, he replied, “I’d probably go
for a great meal—some broccoli probably, because I’m
a vegetarian.”
More than 12,000 people voted in PETA’s annual “World’s
Sexiest Vegetarian” poll, held on PETA.org. The complete list
of the more than 180 vegetarian celebs who were in the running in
this year’s poll follows.
