Cloris Leachman For PETA

Emmy-awarded actress Cloris Leachman was the latest model of PETA. Her ad was unveiled yesterday in New York Times Square. Dressed in gown made from leaves of red and green cabbage, her PETA ad reads, "Let Vegetarianism Grow On You."


Aside from being a multi-talented actress for stage, film, and television, Cloris Leachman is also a contestant on the seventh season of the hit ABC reality show "Dancing With The Stars." She has been the oldest contestant to date, hitting the dance floor at the triumphant age of 82.

Cloris Leachman is the role model of graceful aging through vegetarian diet. PETA sees Cloris as an example of "how gracefully humans age once they omit meat from their daily diet."

The 82-year old actress who was made famous for her role as Phyllis Lindstrom in the 1970s TV Series "Mary Tyler Moore Show" has been a vegetarian for nearly 50 years.

“I felt a million times better, and I’ve never had a bite of meat ever since then,” Cloris Leachman proudly says.

She says she vegetarian, not vegan. Well I'm trying to be vegetarian like her...

A vegan is someone who abstains from harming all living creatures in their life - kinda hard for me now...
