Leona Lewis 'Outraged' Foie Gras Was On Brit Awards Menu

More Leona Lewis

Staunch vegetarian Leona Lewis has expressed her relief after foie-gras was removed from the menu at The Brit Awards.

The French delicacy is essentially the bloated liver of a force-fed duck and is widely derided by animal welfare campaignrs.

Writing on Twitter today, Leona said: “I was outraged 2 hear that the Brit Awards were planning 2 serve foie-gras at the ceremony. They hav now removed it from the menu,well done!”

She later added: "In case u didn't no, Foie-gras is duck that is forced fed in a sickening cruel process and is banned in the uk."

Leona Lewis is nominated in the British Female Solo Artist category at The Brits alongside Bat For Lashes, Florence & The Machine, Lily Allen and Pixie Lott.

I could make an anology that we are all force fed your cruel 'to the ears' music along with the rest of the X-factor trype which should definately banned from the airwaves - but I won't (I don't try to force my opinions on other people)

maybe if we all just sit in silence then scratchy, we can just sit back and allow such disgusting foods to be served

Hmmm. I am a fan of Leona and bloated goose liver, but I couldn't agree more with Scratchy.
