Who said Beverly Hills Betties are Clueless? Faboosh actress, author and vegan Alicia Silverstone, fondly remembered as Cher Horowitz from the 90s classic Clueless, will be honored with the Voice of Compassion award at this year’s Art of Compassion Gala, hosted by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. This makes me way excited.
Silverstone apparently snagged the award by voicing and exemplifying the many advantages to living vegan. The short list includes an Amberlicious amount of energy, a slim physique and clear skin. Sign me up!
The Idol host with the least to contribute, formerly known as Ellen Degeneres, was awarded the same honor earlier this week on her daytime talk show. Marilu Henner, actress and activist, currently lobbying for revisions to the Child Nutrition Act, will also be honored alongside Silverstone at the Gala. (Does anybody remember who she is?)
Alec Baldwin, who once inspired Silverstone’s Cher to refer to all attractive men as ‘Baldwins,’ is expected to attend. Tofu aficionado Moby and Katherine ‘Get Me Off This Show – I’m Done Sleeping With Dead People’ Heigl should be there, too.
Sounds swanky. Makes me want to pop in my Clueless VHS and reminisce. Oh, and of course, consider veganism.
