Congratulations, Jessica Jagmin of Windsor, Ontario, Canada! You're the grand prize winner in peta2's Cafepress design contest!

Jessica's adorable "Vegetarians Keep the Beat Alive" design was chosen out of hundreds of submissions, which also included dissection, spaying-and-neutering, fur, wool, and KFC to name a few, to become peta2's newest tee shirt.


Isn't it the cutest? Perfect for spreading the word that animals are not food. Hopefully once these shirts hit the streets, even more people will be inspired to stop eating flesh.

Want to win one? Thought so, and it just so happens we've got one tee to give away so just comment below with your tee shirt size and what you think is great about being veg. Simple, huh?

This contest ends June 13, 2008 and the winner will be chosen and notified by June 20, 2008.

Just so you know...by commenting here, we're taking that as acknowledgment that you've read and agreed to our privacy policy.

P.S. A lot of time and hard work went into each design and they were all wonderful, honest, so a huge "Thank you" to everyone who entered the contest. It was exciting to see just how many talented, compassionate people are out there. And picking the finalists really was very difficult; I wasn't lying.

Since there's only one winner, you should probably head on over to the peta2 Cafepress store and order your "Vegetarians Keep the Beat Alive" tee today, just to be on the safe side.

Tobey Maguire Thinks Leather Stinks March 7, 2008

Tobey Maguire has made his feelings about leather known before but this time it appears he's really taking a stand. According to an article I recently ran across, the veg actor not only abstains from wearing leather himself, but he also wants his house guests to leave their dead skin behind as well.

Apparently, upon entering his home, his guests are asked to check their leather belts, shoes, and bags at the door. Makes perfect sense to me, I mean it's his house and if he isn't eating or wearing animals, why should visitors be able to? And leather stinks. Who wants that horrible stench of death filling up their house? Not me.

If only every leading man was as kind as Tobey Maguire...I'm bummed that there isn't another Spiderman sequel to look forward to this summer. I loved watching him swing from webs and battle crime—and his beautiful co-star James Franco—but I think The Cider House Rules is still my fave Tobey flick. Tobey Maguire + the always gorgeous Charlize Theron = good.
