Charlize Theron

I love animals and that’s the reason why I am a firm supporter of animal rights and an active member of PETA. My love for animals might be a result of my genetic heritage, because my mother was a big animal lover…While I was 14, I lived with 14 dogs. At present, in my L.A home, I have four adopted canines.

Morrissey

"Animals survived quite well for millions of years without any human intervention, culling or incarceration. If parents want to take their kids to Edinburgh Zoo to learn something about animals, then they should take them along to a local abattoir instead to show them where their lovely food comes from—that's a lesson no kid would ever forget."
(The Sunday Times)

Fred Willard

"I'm very active with Actors and Others for Animals. I've done work for PETA, and I admire them. And someone has to speak up for animals. I think that's what I would do [if I weren't an actor]. I'd volunteer my time to work with animals."

Oprah Winfrey

"I would never, ever adopt another pet now without going to a shelter to do it."

Kimora Lee Simmons

"I've worn a white faux-fur mink bikini. Faux fur equals fabulosity. I am friends with PETA. At Baby Phat we are thinking towards a higher consciousness."

Natalie Portman

"Every time I dress I know I'm not wearing leather, and that's a great feeling."

Simon Cowell

"I’d have millions [of dogs]! But all mutts. Lots of them. Rescue dogs. They make better pets."
(Heat)

Amber Tamblyn

"[R]ight afterward I read Fast Food Nation. That book changed my life: It made me a vegetarian."
(New York)

Jessica Alba

"I think that people who don't like animals tend to be selfish, but I'm biased."
(Us Weekly)

Arnold Schwarzenegger

[Speaking about California's anti-chaining bill] "This bill helps protect dogs from cruelty and enhances public safety by preventing aggressive animal behavior that can result from inhumane tethering."
(Los Angeles Times)
