Actress Portia de Rossi and TV host Ellen Degeneres arrive to Covergirl Cosmetic's 50th Anniversary Party on January 5, 2011 in West Hollywood, California.

Health benefits aside, many vegetarians and vegans feel strongly about animal rights. DeGeneres, a comedian and talk-show host, credits her wake-up call to Skinny Bitch, a book that promotes veganism, and Earthlings, a documentary about the treatment of animals. On going vegan, DeGeneres told Katie Couric: "I do it because I love animals. And I saw the reality and I just couldn't ignore it anymore." She says she's now healthier and happier to boot. (Incidentally, her wife, actress Portia de Rossi, is also a vegan; their 2008 wedding featured an all-vegan menu, including vegan red velvet cake, according to People magazine.)
