Leona Lewis Dubiously Honored as PETA’s Sexiest Vegetarian

Lewis—whose album Spirit made her the first British artist to top the U.S. Billboard chart with a debut album—has a squeaky clean history. And when it comes to the dirty business of animal abuse, she’s a woman of action. “I am vegetarian so I don’t have clothes, shoes or bags made from leather or suede or any animal products. … I’m on a mission,” she says.

Hold up.

That bag you see there on the right? It’s Prada. It costs $990, and it’s leather. Plus it has feathers — from birds.

And then there was the time in January when she went on MTV’s TRL and wore a leather jacket.

And before that, she didn’t seem to object when X Factor (which is kinda the U.K.’s version of American Idol) made her over and slapped a pretty slammin’ leather bomber on her.

Is this really the best PETA can do?
