People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have named international singing star Leona Lewis their “2008 Person of the Year.”
The “Bleeding Love” singer gave up meat when she was 12 years old and has become a devoted supporter of preserving animal rights.
“Leona Lewis is admired for her beautiful voice, but it’s her kindness to animals that makes her a superstar in our book,” PETA Europe Director Robbie LeBlanc said in a statement Thursday.
The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" starlet brought sisters Kim and Kourtney, as well as mother Kris Jenner, out to Harper on Melrose as the campaign was shown off to the gathered spectators.

PETA has a new target.
Well, two targets: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
In a new ad campaign to be unveiled today at the Olsens' Walk of Fame star on Hollywood Boulevard, PETA blasts the 21-year-old star sibs — whom they dub the "Trollsen Twins — for wearing fur and including it in their collections Elizabeth and James and The Row.

The television commerical portion of Alicia Silverstone’s PETA advertising campaign has been pulled from American TV screens, after it was labelled “too rude” to broadcast.

In the ad, a fully nude Silverstone “steps out of a swimming pool” and shares in the benefits of a healthy vegan lifestyle.
PETA president, Ingrid Newkirk, said that...

Madonna is set to anger animal rights activists with her latest fashion accessory.
The Material Mom was spotted last night in London wearing a $80 000 chinchilla coat on a night out with hubby Guy Ritchie.
The coat is made from 40 of our furry and helpless friends which will no doubt upset fans and friends alike.
For a woman who is so enlightened, a woman who truly feels the plight of refugee children everywhere, this is a rather ruthless and inconsiderate move.
Kate Moss has come under fire from animal rights campaigners for repeatedly wearing what appears to be real fur.
The 32-year-old supermodel - who once posed naked for an anti-fur campaign - was pictured only last week at a New York charity auction wearing a shaggy black coat which appeared to made from animal pelts.
Kate has been sent a letter by The World Society for the Protection of Animals appealing to her to boycott fur.
The RSPCA and the Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade have backed the letter.

Pamela Anderson is furious that her mother-in-law wore fur to her July 29 wedding to Kid Rock. "Pam knew it was a slap in the face," says a source to Star magazine (via MSNBC), given Anderson's extensive work with PETA and other animal-rights organizations. (Of course, no one explained why Mrs. Kid Rock's Mom was wearing fur in the middle of the summer.) But what might really be concerning the erstwhile "Baywatch" babe is that her pet Chihuahua Luca is missing. The pooch was last spotted with Anderson's parents on a private beach in Vancouver,...
