Famous, friendly, and Vegan!

Have you ever wondered how many Vegetarians and Vegan people there are out there in the world? It is something I have often wondered. It is very difficult to find accurate information regarding the actual or even approximate number, given that we don't have "membership cards" that are tracked by any governing body, thank goodness! So, I thought instead of writing a long boring post about current research on Vegetarianism and Veganism and hap hazzard thoughts about the current research available, I thought I would keep this post light and fun and list some of the wonderful and talented famous folks we have seen time and time again on the tube that are in fact Vegans.....so here we go!!! Some may surprise you!

Fiona Apple (singer), Erykah Badu (R&B singer), Adam Yauch (Beastie Boys), Joaquin Phoenix (actor), Georges Laraque (ex-NHL player), Jenny McCarthy (actress/model), Joan Jett (singer), Daniel Negreanu (pro poker player), Alanis Morissette (singer), Alicia Silverstone (actress), Daryl Hannah (actress), Portia de Rossi (actress), Ellen Degeneres (tv personality), Alyssa Milano (actress), Emily Deschanel (actress), Andre 3000 Benjamin (Outkast), Eric Roberts (actor), Tobey Maguire (actor), Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Woody Harrelson (actor), Barry White (musician), K.D. Lang (singer), Bif Naked (singer), Kevin Nealon (comedian), Steve-O (Jackass), Liv Tyler (actress), Weird Al Yankovic (comedian), Bryan Adams (singer/songwriter), Carrie Anne Moss (actress), Olivia Wilde (actress), Casey Affleck (actor), and Chrissie Hynde (singer).

Did any of these surprise you? It just goes to show you that you cannot judge a book by it's cover, and not all Vegans have the same reasons for being Vegan, it's a lifestyle choice, and in my opinion, and wonderful one. Go Vegan!!
