Pamela Anderson recently joined PETA to promote vegan food at Marble Arch in London, England. She walked down the streets and urged people to adopt a vegan lifestyle—she raised awareness about the pain and suffering that animals go through in the meat industry. The Baywatch star posed for pictures with different animal mascots and encouraged Londoners to adopt a vegan diet.
There are many other celebrities apart from Anderson who have turned vegan, and here are a few of them.
