What’s got your favorite celebs talking? Animals! Whether it’s Malcolm in the Middle’s Justin Berfield confessing that Diva, his doggie, is “the love of his life” or singer Nellie McKay telling ElleGirl that she seeks out cruelty-free cosmetics, today’s hottest stars are all abuzz about animal rights. Here’s what else we’ve “overheard”:
When Redbook asked Alicia Silverstone if she ever misses hamburgers, the longtime vegan replied, “No, because I can always get one—but not a real hamburger. At Astroburger [in Los Angeles], they serve both regular and vegan ones. The other night I went there and ate onion rings and a veggie burger. It was definitely a ... splurge. I call it dirty vegan.”


You won’t see Orlando Bloom sporting a milk mustache anytime soon. The actor, who plays a milkman-turned-boxer in The Calcium Kid, says his role was “quite ironic. Dairy doesn’t make me feel brilliant and I avoid it.”


Oceans 11 star Casey Affleck is no fan of fur. The Massachusetts native wrote a letter to lawmakers asking them to keep cruel traps out of his home state. Casey reminded the reps, “Some animals, especially mothers desperate to get back to their young, fight so vigorously to get out of traps that they attempt to chew or twist off their trapped limbs.”


Pharrell Williams reveals that animal rights is all that in an answering-machine greeting that he recorded for PETA: “Hi. This is Pharrell from the Neptunes and N.E.R.D., and the person you’re leaving this message for wants you to ... be kind to animals—and so do we.”
