Singer Prince Declared This Years World’s Sexiest Vegetarian

Right on. I love it when artists actually stand for something. The rest are all just myopic, narcissistic brats. Right on Prince.

*Prince’s 1992 song “Sexy MF” suddenly describes the eating habits of the singer, who was voted “world’s sexiest vegetarian” in an online poll by animal rights group PETA.

The 47-year-old singer shares the distinction with actress Kristen Bell, the 25-year-old star of TV’s “Veronica Mars.”

In Prince’s 1999 album, "Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic," he writes in the linear notes about the ills of wool production, and closes the disc with a quote from Mohandas Gandhi: "2 my mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being."

Runners-up in the poll, which PETA said Monday received over 40,000 votes, include Natalie Portman, Nicollette Sheridan and Joaquin Phoenix.

Last year, Coldplay singer Chris Martin and "American Idol" Carrie Underwood were picked as the two "sexiest vegetarians." Other previous winners include Andre 3000, Tobey Maguire, Josh Hartnett, Alicia Silverstone, Lauren Bush and Shania Twain.
