Aug. 31, 2005 05:15 PM Andre Benjamin, a.k.a. Andre 3000 of OutKast, is
a vegan, and a famous one. Apparently, according to the New York Post,
the rapper and actor was named "sexiest male vegetarian" by People for
the Ethical Treatment of Animals. But wait, what's that thing hanging
from his belt? Why, it's a genuine gray wolf's tail he picked up in
Canada.
Apparently opposed to eating animals, Benjamin seems to have no problem
wearing them. Never mind, by the way, that the gray wolf is considered
an endangered species in the United States. And it gets better.
Benjamin, currently starring in the movie "Four Brothers" with Mark
Wahlberg, plans to put out a line of clothing that includes the wolf's
tail as an accessory, the Post reports. Asked about the hollow
hypocrisy of it all, Benjamin said, "I'm a vegan, but I like to look
good, too."
ANNA NICOLE BLASTS ANDRE 3000 OVER FUR FASHIONS
ANNA NICOLE SMITH has slammed OUTKAST star ANDRE '3000' BENJAMIN for including grey wolf fur in his planned new clothing line.
Animal-loving Smith is using her weekly column in this week's
(ends11SEP) National Enquirer tabloid to make her feelings known about
the rap star's fashion blunder.
And she's holding nothing back, asking Benjamin, what sort of "hoochie momma" he hopes to get to buy wolf fur clothing.
She writes, "Come on Mr 3000, is this a joke? Even if grey wolves weren't endangered, that's not fashion. That's just nasty!"
