Pastry designer Angela Simmons posed nude for PETA to promote her vegetarian lifestyle.

Simmons is the latest celebrity to bare it all for a Peta Campaign. Khloe Kardashian-Odom, Taraji P. Henson and a slew of other celebs have taken it off for Peta.

Simmons spoke with Peta about why she decided to stand up for the “Eating Meat Is a Sin” cause.

“I really want people to know what happens to animals,” she said. “Animals have feelings and I think it’s important we take action. As a devout Christian, I feel it’s very important to show compassion for all of God’s creation—and adopting a vegetarian diet is the best way to keep innocent animals from suffering.”

Angela’s decision to become a vegetarian was influenced by her uncle Russell Simmons. She has vowed to be a full fledge vegan in a few years.

“I eat pretty well, I’m a vegetarian. Hopefully I’ll be a vegan in a couple of years, but I’m taking it one step at a time. My uncle inspired me to become a vegetarian, a vegan, when I was young. He had me watch this video, I can’t remember the name of it, but I was only about 12 or 13 and he gave it to our family. No one else watched it except me.”

“At that age, I tried to be a vegetarian and I couldn’t do it because I was in a family that ate so much meat. But I finally made the change and it’s been like a year and a half now and I’m pretty proud of myself. I’m feeling good and I do work out a lot.”
