Underwood, Martin Are Sexiest Vegetarians
1 hour, 58 minutes ago
If only Bo Bice had cut down on the ribs. Carrie Underwood, who beat out Bice to win the "American Idol" crown in May, was voted the "World's Sexiest Vegetarian" in PETA's annual online poll. She shares the honor with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.
More than 13,000 votes were cast in the contest run by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the animal rights group announced Tuesday.
Underwood, a 22-year-old Oklahoma native, wore a "V for Vegetarian" T-shirt on the Fox show. Martin, 28, and his wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, made headlines when they gave their 1-year-old daughter, Apple, a vegan birthday cake.
Underwood and Martin beat out other famous veggie lovers including David Duchovny, Reese Witherspoon, Avril Lavigne, Joaquin Phoenix and Prince.
Last year, Andre 3000 of OutKast and Alicia Silverstone won the "sexiest vegetarian" title. Other previous winners include Tobey Maguire, Lauren Bush and Shania Twain.

All people listed have weird looking skin...
Not a one of 'em are vegetarians anymore. I feel oddly proud of that.
That'll help her C&W career. Who's her agent--Natalie Maines?
FYI.. who knew?
I want pix. I want to see for myself.
Maybe they're correct? Maybe these are sexiest cuz they actually look HEALTHY instead of walking death!
"But what about me?"
I guess chocolate is not considered meat.
There's nothing wrong with a vegan lifestyle. I've met a few over the years and they've told me that they do eat well and can achieve full nutrition from that lifestyle.
Truth be told, I've scaled back on my meat intake over the last few years. I've read a few horror stories and that's convinced me to make some minor changes in my diet.
But I could never practice a complete vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. The urge to do battle with a 12 oz sirloin or a plate of tasty bacon is too overwhelming.
I read where Joaquin Phoenix (strange looking person, IMHO) is a chain smoker. Real health nut, that one.
I'm not saying she's ugly, but if she is the best looking vegtitarian, that does not speak well for vegitarians.
I wonder if the reason Carrie is a vegetarian is because she loves animals so much? I think she was studying to be a veterenarian.
AI ping!
At least the girl - in that light w/the make-up - looks healthy.
The boy - huh???? He looks like a veggie, alrite - dead, death, dying, sickly.
Big surprise!
Yes, you only truly love animals if you refuse to eat even their eggs.
Also you only truly love them if you treat them like gods who never do anything wrong. Hence, never dare touch them or look at them funny.
And heck, you can't truly love animals unless you don't keep any. They should all be free to roam anywhere.
Etc, etc, etc.
It seem to me that many vegans or vegetarians that I know personally or know of, smoke. I do not understand why.
