Anderson is a vegetarian, an advocate for animal rights, and an active member of the animal protection organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), taking part in several campaigns for animal rights.[30] She became a vegetarian in her early teens when she saw her father cleaning an animal he had hunted
One of Anderson's campaigns as a member of PETA has been against the use of fur. In 1999, Anderson received the first Linda McCartney Memorial Award for animal rights protectors, in recognition of her campaign. In 2003, Anderson stripped down for PETA's "I'd Rather GoNaked Than Wear Fur" advertising campaign. On June 28, 2006, Anderson posedNaked with other protesters on a window display of the Stella McCartney boutique in London, England. It was a PETA gala event before the PETA Humanitarian Awards. Anderson went inside the boutique and said she would take her clothes off if the event raised enough money for PETA, which it did. She has also campaigned against Kentucky Fried Chicken. In 2001, Anderson released a letter in support of PETA's campaign against KentuckyFriedChicken, stating "What KFC does to 750 million chickens each year is not civilized or acceptable." She later made a video about KFC's treatment of chickens. In January 2006, Anderson requested that the Governor of Kentucky remove ABust of Colonel Sanders, the founder of KFC, from display but her request was refused even when she offered her ownBust in exchange.

In February 2006, Anderson decided to boycott the Kentucky Derby because of its support for Kentucky Fried Chicken. She has also campaigned against seal hunting in Canada. In March 2006, Anderson asked to speak to Prime Minister Stephen Harper about the annual seal hunt but she was refused. In May 2006, she petitioned random individuals on the street for their opinion on the Canadian Seal Hunt. In December, 2009, Anderson, photographed in a t-shirt with a drawn picture of a seal pup on it, was featured in a new ad campaign for PETA. She appears next to the headline "Save the Seals" in the ad and urges the public to help end "Canada's annual seal slaughter."[33] Anderson joined forces with PETA in a campaign for the boycott of fruit-juice maker POM. The "Pom Horrible Campaign"[34] has resulted in the company halting animal tests. In March 2005, Anderson became a spokesmodel for MAC Cosmetics's MAC AIDS Fund, which helped people affected by AIDS and HIV. After becoming the official spokesmodel, Anderson raised money during events in Toronto, Tokyo, Dublin, and Athens. Anderson became the celebrity spokesperson for the American Liver Foundation, and served as the Grand Marshal of the SOS motorcycle ride fundraiser. She wrote an open letter to President Barack Obama urging the legalization of cannabis.[35] Anderson became the center of controversy when she posed in a bikini nearlyNude for a PETA

add that was banned in Canada because they said the ad was ssexy. Anderson retorted saying, "In a city that is known for its exotic dancing and for being progressive and edgy, how sad that a woman would be banned from using her own body in a political protest over the suffering of cows and chickens. In some parts of the world, women are forced to cover their whole bodies withBurqas -- is that next? I didn't think that Canada would be soPuritanical.

Veena is more like Rona Rona, a big mouth, a habitual loose mouth who is prone to barking off the cuff. Good that sexyPam has taken over and brought some gloss and better behaviour to the soap opera show.

Oye, all these Pakis are coming to India now as they know that they can make good money here and not there. Heard that Paki singer Ali Zafar was tryin for a perm work permit here as he wanted to relocate from Lahore for work opportunities. Even Begum Parveena was also doing the same, angling for a chance in Bollywood films.
