Kyra Sedgwick

 

Doggone it, I knew there was a reason why I love Kyra Sedgwick. Oh, sure, she’s an outspoken dog rescuer and an amazing actor, and she’s married to hunky Sexiest Vegetarian Alive contender Kevin Bacon. But what really sent her into the hero stratosphere was this letter she sent to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg today asking him to improve the living conditions for the elephants who are being forced to perform by Ringling in Coney Island this summer and requesting that he forbid Ringling from ever returning to Coney Island.

She’s not asking for much, just little creature comforts like not being chained up for hours on end and not being whipped in the face or jabbed by bullhooks. Doesn’t seem like a lot to ask, does it? Read Kyra’s letter for yourself and see if you agree.
