Olivia Munn Combats Circus Cruelty
Olivia Munn has a soft spot for animals and was shocked to learn that elephants used in circuses are torn from their mothers at birth. They are bound and electroshocked as babies in order to break their spirits. They spend the rest of their lives performing silly, meaningless tricks out of constant fear of physical punishment, including beatings with bullhooks—sharp, metal-tipped implements that resemble fireplace pokers.
Since elephants are not naturally inclined to balance on balls, stand on their heads, or perform tricks, trainers use whips, tight collars, muzzles, electric prods, bullhooks, and other painful tools to force them to perform these physically uncomfortable tasks. Elephants used by Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus are beaten, hit, poked, prodded, and jabbed with sharp hooks, sometimes until bloody. When they are not performing, elephants—who walk up to 30 miles a day in their natural environment—spend their time in chains as the circus travels from city to city.
Olivia Munn explains, "When you look at something like the circus and everyone's laughing and there's color and there's music and everything seems so great, but when you go right behind that door and they're in these crates all day long and then they're getting shocked and beat just so they can get up and dance around on a ball. It was just so sickening." Please join Olivia in helping to stop cruelty under the big top and spread the word about this important issue to everyone you know!

The Naked Vegetarian: Alicia Silverstone
Sexy Hollywood star Alicia Silverstone bares all in PETA's first-ever naked vegetarian testimonial. Watch Alicia's sexy video, directed by acclaimed director Dave Meyers, whose credits include videos for Britney Spears, OutKast, and Dave Matthews Band.
Alicia Silverstone, like many individuals, was not always a vegetarian. It was only after meeting some farm animals where she realized that these animals were no different than a domestic dog or cat. These cows and chickens have feelings and feel pain. From that point, she decided to become a vegetarian.
After becoming a vegan, not only has she helped animal suffering, but Alicia has noticed significant changes in her body physically and spiritually. Alicia has been a vegan for over 10 years.
