How Cruelty-Free is Your Morning Routine? April 30, 2007
Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 0 ) | TrackBack
Have you ever really thought about how your products were tested before you bought them? If you're anything like me, when you come across labels that say "This product has not been tested on animals" you think it's pretty amazing. However, up until about four years ago, it never occurred to me to wonder how my products that were curiously free of testing information were tested. After doing a bit of research, I was horrified to find out that animals are burned, blinded, and poisoned all for something as trivial as mascara. Yup, bunnies are blinded for someone to have plumper lashes. What company is going to want to put that on its label?
Luckily there are many, many awesome companies out there that don't test on animals. Revlon, Origins, wet n wild, M.A.C., and Avon all offer great products that aren't tested on animals (to see more companies that don't test on animals, click here. Oh, and just in case you haven't gotten a chance to check it out yet, don't forget to enter our sweet Smashbox Cosmetics giveaway. Please don't rub it in my face if you win--I'm still not very pleased that I'm not allowed to enter!
Anyway, I'm getting off track as usual, but I wanted to let you know about our fun new "How Cruelty-Free is Your Morning Routine?" quiz. Click here to take the quiz. Let me know what you think of it!

Committed Chapter Six: Dan Meets Morrissey April 26, 2007
Posted by Patricia | Permalink | Comments ( 1 ) | TrackBack

I just heard from PETA VP Dan Mathews who is smack-dab in the middle of his book tour right this very minute. He's doing talk shows and chatting with all the gossip mags in addition to his book signings and it sounds like he's having a fab time, which is usually the case if Dan has anything to say about it. I'm sure he'll have lots of great new stories to tell, in fact he's probably already got enough to fill a chapter for a sequel should he decide to write another book. And as predicted, Committed: A Rable-Rouser's Memoir is flying off the shelves, because let's face it, who doesn't want to know what Morrissey is really like? Here's a sneak peak at chapter six in which Dan talks about how he first stalked, I mean met, Morrissey in 1985 shortly after Meat Is Murder was released. The Smiths were coming to D.C. and Dan had tried to schedule an interview with Morrissey for Animal Times but was told by the concert promoter that he wouldn't even talk to Rolling Stone, so Dan resorted to other tactics...
The backstage guard, busy fending off a herd of gothic groupies, wasn't interested in passing my request on to the band. It seemed futile, but I waited earnestly. Meanwhile, Patti slyly slipped away from the throng and worked her ample charms on a crew member near the tour bus. After just a few minutes she was back—with a devious smile.
....
[Later that night]
I nervously phoned the hotel and, to my surprise, was put through to the room.
"Hello?" Morrissey yawned, half-asleep.
"Hi," I said, struggling to deepen my overanxious twenty-year old voice. "Sorry if I woke you up, but this is the only way I could get through. I'd like to ask a few questions for an animal rights magazine. It's hard for us to get people's attention and you're the biggest lure we've ever had."
I fully expected to hear the phone slam down. Instead, Morrissey yawned again.
"Oh, sure," he said, seeming to rise and shine a bit. "Most interviews are so tiresome, especially on tour," he said matter-of-factly. "But since this is for the animals, obviously I'm duty-bound."
That's all you get, you'll have to buy the book for the rest of the story. It's been standing room only in some places, kittens, so get there early because you don't want to miss a single second of what Dan's got to say.

The Idyllists are the New Smiths April 25, 2007

Music
The Idyllists recently got in contact with us, and asked if we could send them some peta2 lit to put on their merch table. This was very exciting news for peta2, as NME called them, "The greatest musical human beings to ever walk the planet". So needless to say, we sent the merch out like that.
The Idyllists have been called a modern day Smiths, and we can see why. Not only is their music amazing, their vocalist, Ian, is also a strict vegetarian like Morrissey. Check out what Ian had to say about his veg ways below...
![]()
Lara Sanders: When did you first hear about peta2?
Ian: I heard about peta2 through researching the web.
LS: Do you have any favorite vegetarian foods?
Ian: Indian food and anything with good flavors/spices. I like to cook basic vegetarian dishes- veggies steamed, with curry or Thai sauce.
LS: Do you have any favorite cities to visit while on tour, because of the good veg food?
Ian: Seattle is great! Also NYC. Any big city with a large ethnic population helps in finding good food with great flavor.
LS: What advice would you give someone who was thinking about going vegetarian, but thinks that it is just too hard?
Ian: It's really not hard. There are many fake meat products out there.
You sold me, now check them out for yourself.

Save Kangaroos From Slaughter! April 24, 2007
Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 17 ) | TrackBack
Isn't it horrifying to imagine being killed for your skin? Sadly, this is a reality for many animals, including kangaroos. Yup, that's right, kangaroos.
As you might imagine, those of us who work here at peta2 see some really gruesome and sickening videos of cruelty to animals more often than most people, but I can't really complain, cause at least I'm much, much better off than the animals in the videos. That being said, this was one of the hardest videos for me to watch in a while. Click on the image below to watch it (Heads up--it's graphic):

How could someone do something so awful? It's simple, really. For money. After they are slaughtered, kangaroos are skinned to be made into throw rugs, purses, jackets, or shoes. Senate Bill 880 would legalize kangaroo skin sales in California, where they have been banned since 1970. We need your help to stop it. Click here to send a message to the Senate Natural Resources Committee, asking them to oppose SB 880.
Thanks so much.

PS -- Did you know that soccer stud David Beckham replaced his kangaroo-leather "Predator" boots with a synthetic alternative after he heard about the cruelty involved in making the shoes? Gotta love him!

Ringling Bros. meet peta2! April 23, 2007
Posted by Jason | Permalink | Comments ( 10 ) | TrackBack
I have spent the last couple of days in wonderful Charleston, West Virginia. I like this town because the people who live here are so nice. It is so different from the typical fast-paced feeling of a bigger city. Along with some of the most laid-back people you will ever meet, you will also experience some of the strangest and funniest moments that will make you say to yourself, “WTF?”
I came to Charleston because Ringling Bros. circus was in town. No, I wasn’t going to the show, I was here to document the elephants and how poorly they are treated. My fellow co-worker, RaeLeann, and I found out where the Ringling train was going to stop and unload the elephants for the walk to the Convention Center. We did not have an exact time when the train was going to arrive so we parked near the location to monitor the tracks and wait, and wait, and wait. Anyway, long story short, I went to the restroom at the local farmers market and as I went to wash my hands, this older man met me. As we said “hello” to each other, he began to take off his pants. Yes, he was taking off his pants next to me as I was washing my hands. As his pants hit the floor and he stood their in a pair of very dirty boxer shorts, he says to me, “it’s pretty crazy what happened at that school” – I replied, “yes, it is very sad and horrible,” the whole time thinking ‘what you are doing right now is pretty crazy.’
Speaking of crazy, we all know that Ringling beats their elephants with a heavy stick that has very sharp points at the end called bullhooks. This is nothing new but we now hear from activists in California, who are working on the The Elephant Protection Act, AB 777 which will make the use of bullhooks illegal, that Ringling is claiming in the Californian legislature that their weapons of torture don’t have hooks on the end. I guess they think the general public is not very intelligent. To see what big liars this would make them, check out the video footage I filmed just this week and let me know what you think. Does Ringling use sharp-tipped bullhooks or not?
Find out more about Ringling here!
On a lighter note, I met two of the most wonderful people ever. Archele Hundley and Garrison Christianson, they are two ex-Ringling employees who witnessed Ringling animal trainers beat elephants on a daily basis. In fact, they witnessed a Ringling animal trainer beat an elephant with a bullhook for nearly forty-five minutes, swinging the bullhook like a baseball bat. After witnessing this bloody beating and other abuses, they complained and reported these abuses to Ringling management. They were ignored by Ringling management and told; if you do not like it leave. Archele did just that, left Ringling and came straight to PETA to report this abuse.
Since both of these two wonderful people happen to be residents of Charleston we wanted to let everyone know of their stories. Cue Ringling Bros. opening night and an awesome PETA protest. Archele and Garrison were awesome, it was their first protest ever and they were both rock stars. We reached a ton of people, some even turned around and left after hearing how Ringling abuses the animals in their ‘care’ – Two TV news channels came out to cover the demo. It was an awesome week in Charleston, West Virginia.
This may have only been a couple of days in one town but hear me now: Ringling, I am coming after you.
– Stay tuned for more updates and don’t forget to visit Circuses.com and dont forget to hit the streets!

Make Your Own KFC Sign! April 19, 2007
Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 4 ) | TrackBack
By now you've probably heard about the fact that KFC routinely scalds chickens alive, breaks their bones, and causes them to grow so large so fast that they can barely move. Here at PETA, we're always coming up with creative new ways to let the public know about Kentucky Fried Cruelty, and I'd have to say, this just might be my favorite yet.
Basically, you can go here and make a KFC sign of your very own to let everyone know just how KFC treats its chickens. Here are some examples:


Okay, so that second one was a joke (Pulin's face only kinda sucks) but see where I'm going with this? Be creative! When you click here to make a sign of your very own, you'll receive the html code to post your sign on your personal page, your MySpace profile, your friends' MySpace profiles, or your blog. The possibilities are endless!
We'd love to see what you come up with, so if you're in a sharing mood, comment on this blog with the sign you make.
Have fun!

Britney Spears Forgot Her Pants, Remembered Her Furs April 18, 2007
Posted by Patricia | Permalink | Comments ( 18 ) | TrackBack
Britney Spears, where are your pants??? I admit this is a vast improvement from her pre-rehab panty-less cavorting days but still. What is with all of these celebrities not wearing pants—first it was no underwear, now it's underwear without pants, they've clearly all lost their minds. This look didn't work for Sienna and it didn't work for Lohan, so why on Earth would Britney think it would work for her?! Ladies, please hear me when I say if you're not on stage in an off Broadway production of A Chorus Line or Staying Alive put your pants on. Don't go traipsing around trollop style in your leotard/panties if you're not performing at that very moment. No one wants to see that...there's a reason ballerinas aren't running the streets in their tutus.


I did notice however, that she remembered to tote her furs around with her...furs and panties...shopping at ladies of the evening stores now are we? I hope they're fake, I mean she's said previously that she doesn't wear real fur but that brown one looks pretty real to me. I'm glad she's trying to clean up her act and I hope and pray that includes her wardrobe too. I know she doesn't have many skeletons left in her closet, what with the paparazzi and gossip rags sharing her secrets with the world and all, so she should just go ahead and get all of the death out of there by ditching the furs. If you'd like to give her some polite encouragement you could leave her a message here, just click on the star. Britney, if you're looking for a new stylist, which you so desperately need, give me a call.

PETA VP Dan Mathews Is Committed April 17, 2007
Posted by Patricia | Permalink | Comments ( 0 ) | TrackBack
In case you haven't heard, PETA VP Dan Mathews has penned his memoirs—actually it's a collection of wild stories that are outrageous and funny, just like Dan. Committed: A Rabble-Rouser's Memoir which is on sale now is a must read if you want to know about the history of PETA from someone who was a huge part of it. The book is filled with tales about his escapades on behalf of animals with and without the help of some of his famous pals—think Pamela Anderson, Morrissey, Tommy Lee, Andy Dick, folks like that. Here's a short story that Dan wanted to share with y'all about how he first met Pink.
Interestingly, I first got hooked up to Pink not through PETA but because of a girl I knew who worked in a trendy thrift shop, named Laura. Laura is one of my west coast punk chick pals, who also knew Pink, and when Pink exploded into the charts a few years back she hired Laura to help manage her. Laura knew that Pink was a dog nut, rescuing strays, but hadn't thought much about veg and fur and such, so she hooked us up. I first met Pink at her birthday party at a roller rink where she made sure to offer veggie dogs. That's when she mentioned to me that Prince William had invited her to play at his b-day bash. I told her he had just returned from a hideous hunting trip, so she instantly wrote a letter saying she'd only play if he stopped hunting, and gave us the letter to publicize. Pink always hated doing press, but as soon as reporters started asking her about animal rights, she loved it and we've done many things since, such as an anti-KFC campaign called "Kick the Bucket".
Dan's on tour right now doing signings for his book and meet and greets and such, so please go out and meet him. He's truly one of a kind and you'll have a great time. Oh, and don't forget to buy the book! You'll love it, I promise.

Victory: Newbury Comics Stops Selling Fur! April 17, 2007
Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 12 ) | TrackBack
Nobody rocks more at showing people just why fur sucks than peta2 Street Teamers. After we launched a campaign yesterday morning to get New England music store chain Newbury Comics to stop selling tacky animal figurines made from rabbit fur, many of you lovely people got busy sending messages to the music store, letting it know that you wouldn't shop at its stores until the company agreed to stop selling fur. Yesterday evening, we began receiving word that the 700+ e-mails sent to Co-Owner and Founder, Mike Dreese, were working their magic, and Mr. Dreese was responding saying that Newbury Comics had stopped selling products made of fur, and "the last few dozen leftover, unsold pieces [fur figurines] have been removed from our stores this morning." We confirmed this with Newbury Comics this morning, and it is indeed true. Yay!

Many, many thanks to those of you who wrote to Newbury Comics—this victory wouldn't be possible without you! I wish I could pat each and every one of you on the back (but most of you aren't near Norfolk, Virginia, so that's just not likely to happen.).
This is an important victory for the millions of animals who are tortured each year for their fur—I'm positive they’d thank you if they could.
♥ Marta
P.S. – Don't forget to take the pledge to be fur-free if you haven’t already. I’ll think you’re super-extra-cool if you do!

Can You Taste the Chaos?! April 16, 2007
Posted by Ryan | Permalink | Comments ( 3 ) | TrackBack
Greetings!
This is Ryan, peta2's official road warrior, here to give you a run-down from the Taste of Chaos Tour 2007! Our main focus for the show was urging concertgoers to sign our petition against über-bastards KFC, for cutting baby birds beaks off and scalding chickens to death. 2 months, 20,000 miles, and 58,000 signatures later, we wrapped it up in Canada. Did we hit your town?

Those who have seen us before know that we always pull out all the stops when tabling. We were fortunate enough to have 2 amazing Street Teamers help us get sign-ups each night. Go Street Team go!
We didn’t stop there, though. Everybody knows that shows are more fun to go to with friends. That’s why we brought out the big guns and had our friends Cove (lead singer of Saosin), and Craig (lead singer of Chiodos) (both of whom stopped eating animals on this tour) stop by the table and say hi! Can we say Sexiest Vegetarians Alive?



Even 30 Seconds to Mars frontman (and fellow vegetarian) Jared Leto even got into the action by signing autographs in front of one of our anti-KFC banners!
It goes without saying that the tour was a massive success. Thousands of kids took our free DVDs and literature to show their friends, and we discussed the issues with everyone who approached the table. Everyone likes free stuff!
So now I’m back in the office, helping get things set up for the next amazing tour that peta2 will be rockin’. Make sure to keep your eyes on our "On the Road" page for all of the details, and check out my full tour blog HERE.
See you soon!

Tobey Maguire's Going Leather-Free April 13, 2007
Posted by Patricia | Permalink | Comments ( 6 ) | TrackBack
The paparazzi has been all over Tobey Maguire since the birth of his adorable little girl, Ruby Sweetheart, but now with the release of Spider-Man 3 less than a month away they actually want to hear from him, not just hide in the bushes with their telephoto lenses. I'm actually excited about Spider-Man 3, mainly because I can't wait to see James Franco on the big screen again. Sigh. Why don't any of the guys I know look like him, even just a little bit?! Life is so cruel. So Tobey's been chatting it up with the reporters and one of the main topics he's chosen to discuss is why he's a vegetarian. "I've been a vegetarian for 14 years now," he told Parade Magazine. "Actually, I'm close to being a vegan, but I'm not one, technically. I don't eat eggs, or nearly any dairy—no cheese or milk. I do eat honey, and a piece of milk chocolate here and there...It's never really been that hard for me. I've never had the desire to eat meat. In fact, when I was a kid I would have a really difficult time eating meat at all." In an effort to become more animal friendly he's decided to phase leather out of his life too, in fact, he even ordered a car without a leather interior and says he's been wearing canvas shoes. Aw, he's a good Tobey Maguire. Oh, and just an FYI...his Spider-Man 3 cast mates James Cromwell and Bryce Dallas Howard are also veg...I bet their Kraft Services table was a veg paradise.

VOTE: What Should peta2's Summer Campaign Be? April 12, 2007
Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 70 ) | TrackBack
We at peta2 have come to realize that nothing makes us happier than when we're able to contribute to an important decision (like, for instance, who gets kicked off American Idol each week—you know, important stuff like that), so we figured you blog readers would love to help us decide what peta2's summer campaign should be.
The choices are either:
1. "Birds Need Beaks" which focuses on the fact that baby birds have their beaks chopped off when they are days old because they are so crammed together that they peck at each other out of frustration. Basically, chickens need more space. They don’t deserve to have their beaks chopped off.
2. "Too Young to Die" which shows that calves (AKA baby cows) are confined to tiny crates for the duration of their short lives—after being torn away from their moms (dairy cows) when they are usually not even a day old—and are fed a liquid diet with little iron to become the "delicacy" known as veal. The veal industry would not exist without the dairy industry. Period.

There have been a few arguments going on here in the office like:
Paul: "Birds Need Beaks" is sweet!
Pulin: No way. "Too Young to Die" is way better. Your pick sucks.
Paul: Whatever. Your face sucks.
You can see that we need help deciding. Comment below to tell us your favorite!

New Years Day is blowin up. Not only is their new video for "I Was Right" getting regular rotation on mtvU, they are also busy prepping for the release of their new album, My Dear, on May 8th. Even though everyone from AP to Playboy (yes Playboy) is fighting to get a piece of New Years Day, they still take the time to represent peta2 on stage and on their merch table.
That's New Years Day's guitarist, Keith, rockin the peta2 tee on stage. Keith is a longtime vegetarian and peta2 supporter, so yeah, we like him…a lot. Keep tuned in to peta2 for more from New Years day, and be sure to check them out this summer on Warped Tour!

Is That Vegan You're Wearing? April 10, 2007
Posted by Marta | Permalink | Comments ( 3 ) | TrackBack
Sometimes people ask me, "What do you eat?!" when they find out I'm a vegan (okay—not sometimes, more like all the time). I tell them: "The same things you eat, only vegan." Tacos? Check. Mac 'n Cheese? Check. Lasagna? Check. Ice Cream? Check.
Anyway, enough of my food ramblings (for now). So people tend to think that, as compassionate buyers, we "can't" wear anything either (I don't know about you guys, but I can wear anything I want—I just choose not to wear someone else's skin. Nasty!). It's true that leather, wool, and fur are found in a lot of clothing, but as an increasing number of people are made aware of the horrors of the skins industries, stylish alternatives are popping up everywhere.
A recent story in The Boston Globe was dedicated to vegan fashion, and posed the question, "So what should a quinoa-eating, veal-hating vegan do about her garments?" The story listed many stylish cruelty-free alternatives, which you can read about here.
That said, if you're blanking on what to wear this spring, you definitely need to check out some of our favorite spring fashions for him and her. And don't forget to visit our friends at Alternative Outfitters for 100% vegan (and totally cute) goods. What if you're at a store like Target or Payless? Just be sure to check out the label to see what it is you're buying. Here's a hint: words like synthetic and manmade mean you're good to go.
Keep in mind that vegan fashion can sometimes go terribly, terribly wrong, no matter how hard you try. See the below photo of me:

Okay, so I dressed like that mostly as a joke, but you get what I'm saying, right?

So I truly feel sorry for all of you that weren't at Anti-Flag's acoustic set on Sunday at Volume CD's in VA Beach. The show was great, the guys were funny, the crowd was pumped, and we got tons of fine young lad and ladettes to sign our petition to boycott KFC...couldn't have asked for a better day!

Big thanks to our veg friends, Justin, Chris, #2, and Pat for being the lovely boys that they are to take time from their crazy busy schedule to fit this show in AND to Adam, the owner of Volume CD's, for setting everything up and inviting peta2 to be a part of it all!
If you weren't able to stop by and get an autograph yourself, just fill out the form below this witty little blog entry for your chance to win one of five signed Anti-Flag posters. If you're lucky enough to win, it's totally cool to lead all your friends into believing that you got the autographs yourself. Hell I'll even include a few pics that you can photoshop yourself into...
