Heather Mills is the Face of BK's New Veggie Burger
Yes, there are at least two things in that title that are almost entirely incomprehensible, yet true. First off, it's hard to imagine a world where hardcore vegan Heather Mills would agree to be a spokesperson for the unapologetic meat fetishists at BK. Secondly, Burger King is going to start offering a veggie burger? Weirdness abounds.If you're looking for a third reason that this news is bizarre, it may be worth examining what BK wants with a somewhat publicly reviled ex-wife of a Beatle, stigmatized for being a selfish golddigger. Still, the $6M deal has reportedly already been signed, sealed, and delivered.
Obviously, money talks and $6M can buy a lot of cars and McMansions. Mills could certainly be criticized for her making a deal with the hamburger devils at BK by the vegan community, and she probably will get a fairly strong tongue lashing -- she's used to it. Reportedly, Mills is looking at the silver lining:
A friend told The People: "Heather is ecstatic. She believes she can change the eating habits of millions. She's also being paid a lot of money and the deal will help boost her standing."[via Ecorazzi]
