Rodriguez/Getty Images Here’s your Friday afternoon breaking news: Dax Shepard, one-half of the celebrity couple that is single-handedly helping us believe in love these days, eats chicken sometimes. [Insert car screech here.] Say what? The only reason this crucial bit of info is coming out right now is because, alongside fiancé Kristen Bell, the duo were named PETA’s ‘Sexiest Vegetarians.’ But now only Bell can accept the title, because of course the woman who loves sloths more than life itself would be a friend to the animals. Shepard tweeted: “We’re delighted to recognize Kristen Bell as our Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrity,” a rep for PETA told EW. “She sets a wonderful example of kindness to animals and healthy living to her countless fans, including Dax! We love Dax, and we’re glad to read that he’s aspiring to be more like Kristen. We are here to help with recipes and our vegetarian starter kit, and we’ll be sending the couple a delicious gift basket of Beyond Meat and Gardein veggie chicken products.” Maybe they can consider it an early wedding gift.
