vegans on tv

I'm excited about the increased presence of vegans in the media. Marilu Henner has been making the rounds this week, promoting her stint on Donald Trump' "Celebrity Apprentice". Last night she was on Jimmy Kimmel and also on Jay Leno earlier in the month. Henner is probably best known for her role in the sitcom, Taxi, but most recently she has been working the health food circuit, publishing more than 7 books on healthy living. What I like most about Henner, is that she hardly ever uses the word "vegan." Instead she concentrates on health, which opens more ears ( and pocketbooks!). The word health is a welcome one, while the word vegan, indicates a strict lifestyle most people don't even want to begin to understand.
Henner publicly embarrassed Jimmy Kimmel last night, explaining his puffiness around his eyes is due to too much cheese and dairy and that the fat gullet around his mouth and chin was evidence of too much meat.
Keep your eyes peeled for more appearances on television by Marilu Henner. She's a fireball, must be pushing 60 and looks fantastic. If women need further impetus to become vegan, take a look at Henner for inspiration.
