The above headline seems like the most obvious statement in the world to me on so many levels, but today PETA has officially confirmed it. EW’s Michael Ausiello, a.k.a. the office’s biggest loser, is a less sexy vegetarian than actual celebrity Bob Harper, a trainer on The Biggest Loser. House‘s Olivia Wilde edged out Lisa Edelstein for the lady title. Winners Harper and Wilde are both proud vegans. When asked if he thought his non-veganism hurt his chances, Ausiello told PopWatch exclusively, “It’s possible.” Ausiello, who claims to be “heading in a vegan direction,” then selected a dark chocolate Kit Kat for the road as he wandered away from my door for the 17th time today. Ausiello was later spotted weeping at his desk while using said Kit Kat to stir a large bowl of cage-free raw eggs. He asks for your patience as a recount is conducted.
From PETA’s press release: “Other celebrities who landed in the top 10 include Alec Baldwin, Ellen DeGeneres, Emily Deschanel, Joaquin Phoenix, Michael Ausiello, Russell Brand, and Sarah Silverman.” Cookie Monster responds after the jump!

Loving all of the categories this post is listed as.
Haha! Me too. And for anyone who thinks the headline is mean, you obviously are not acquainted with Michael Ausiello’s brand of humor. There’s no doubt in my mind that he fully endorsed this entire piece.
I think they forgot “Things that make me die inside”
That headline is SO mean.
I’m throwing my name in for 2011.
I’m a WAY sexier vegetarian than Joaquin Phoenix or Sarah Silverman.
Me too. I’m much sexier than Russell Brand, Emily Deschanel, and Lisa Edelstein. Olivia Wilde….okay, she might be hotter than I am.
You are so not sexier than Emily Deschanel. It’s not possible.
Let’s put it this way…I’ve been told many a time that I look exactly like Marion Cotillard (YES I’M BRAGGING) so….equal hotness?
As a straight woman I don’t really get how people think certain celebrities are hot (Sarah Siverman? I mean she’s funny but…hot?) so maybe I’m not the best judge.
Again. There’s no way you are sexier than Emily Deschanel. Say what you want, brag all you want.
Aw! I voted for you Ausiello (mainly because you share my obsession with Smurfs).
Also, we are both vegetarians who say we’ll try to go vegan but never do. Sorry, Annie, but I do love Ausiello.
Man, it seems like every hottie in hollywood is vegetarian.
Hmmmm. I see your point. Hot body = Good eating habits. Who would have thunk it?
hahahha Funniest article ever!
Bob Harper is a celebrity?
Bitchery! Things that are sad! How about “The Obvious”? “THISCLOSE”? “Try Try Again”? “Crybaby”? LMAO!
Being in the top 10, and being up there with pretty elite celebrities is going to do horrors for Ausiello’s already inflated ego.
Ausielloo is a celebrity?
Joaquin Phoenix is in the top 10? He used to be attractive, but now he is sooooo repulsive.
Relevant sidenote: The male sexiest vegetarian is not Bob Harper. The link I saw says it’s Gabe Saporta, of Cobra Starship.
Love the Cookie Monster vid…hahaha!
GO EMILY DESCHANEL! <3
yay emily deschanel!!!!
No doubt that Emily is a sexy vegetrian (so am I, LOL), but let us not forget Carrie Underwood!!!
