Ginnifer Goodwin’s “Just Not That Into” animal cruelty.
That point was clear Saturday night, as Goodwin served as keynote speaker at the Humane Society of the United States’ biggest summer soiree, “Taking Action for Animals” held at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia.
“I am absolutely a happier person,” PETA’s “hottest vegetarian” began her remarks, a comparison to a life that wasn’t so animal friendly until she “tragically lost” her dog.
“It took me thirty years to have that moment of enlightenment,” Goodwin told the organization’s President and CEO Wayne Pacelle following her speech. “It was something as simple as pouring milk in my coffee one morning and really taking in what it was that I was consuming and where it came from.”
And her “Big Love” for animals didn’t stop Saturday night. Today she plans on joining other animal lovers to lobby Capitol Hill on the issues of horse slaughter, puppy mills, and having exotic animals as pets.
