“PETA is honoring the superstars who are leading by example and proving that helping animals can be as simple as whipping up jackfruit enchiladas or buying a vegan lipstick.”
Lizzo and Selena Gomez have been named winners at PETA’s 15th annual Libby Awards for promoting veganism.
According to the vegan charity, the annual Libby- short for animal liberation- awards aim to recognize individuals, products, and brands that go above and beyond for animals.

Selena won the Favorite Vegan Makeup Line for Rare Beauty cruelty-free beauty collection.
Brands that won prizes included Adidas for its SUPEREARTH superstar sneakers, Miyoko’s for its cultured vegan farmhouse cheddar slices, and Dairy queen for its non-dairy Dilly bars.
Each of the winners will receive a framed certificate. Other 2020 nominees included Billie Eilish, Kesha, Lili Reinhart, Tabitha Brown, Malia Baker, Haile Thomas, and Ethan Dolan.
‘Leading by example’
