"Stinky Kimmi Returns to Save "Babe"" |
LAST EDITED ON 05-30-02 AT 02:50 PM (EST)Yes, the dread "Dirty Kimmi" Kappenberg has shaken off her role of judging thong contests and is now editorializing. The most surprising part is that someone would publish her lame thoughts. But here's the zap2it.com article: http://tv.zap2it.com/news/tvnewsdaily.html?26207 Ex-'Survivor' Decries Killing Animals on TV Wed, May 29, 2002 07:50 PM PDT LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Kimmi Kappenberg, a former contestant on "Survivor: The Australian Outback," is speaking out about how animals are treated in movies and TV shows like the one on which she appeared. In an op-ed piece in Wednesday's (May 29) Los Angeles Times, Kappenberg rails against producers of TV shows who have "harmed animals in the name of ratings." "It's about time those who run these so-called reality shows develop consciences," writes Kappenberg, who lists herself as a TV producer living in Ronkonkoma, N.Y., and a member of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Kappenberg's strict vegetarian ways caused conflict with some of her fellow "Survivor" contestants. Her op-ed piece describes a now-notorious incident that happened during the Australian edition of CBS' reality show: the killing of a pig for food by contestant Michael Skupin. The incident, which CBS captured on camera, caused an uproar among animal-rights activists. In its wake, the Australian state of Queensland enacted a new law increasing protections for animals used in film and TV productions. Kappenberg praises shows such as "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "ER" for using animatronic creatures for scenes in which animals die and says others should follow suit. She also says the killing of animals on television "must be stopped, by legislation ultimately, but also by audience boycott." ******************************** Really, Kimmi? So it's OK to watch people eat animals killed by others, but it's not OK to watch people kill animals for food? Or, like your fellow PETA members, do you believe that it's just OK for animals to eat people for food, but people eating animals is wrong? Duh. Anyone who isn't afraid of developing brain sludge after reading her so-called "thoughts" can find the full LA Times commentary here: http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/opinion/la-000037615may29.story?coll=la%2Dnews%2Dcomment

AyaK, No thanks. Your synopsis was good enough for me. After showing off her ignorance for 15+ days ( or however long she was on)you would have thought she might realize her ignorance is accentuated everytime she opens her mouth. I think the S4 people could have taken a lesson from both S1, and S2. The S4 idiots could have had BBQ fish, chicken or pig everynight, yet they sat on their lazy asses and complained.

Even as a semi-vegetarian (I think the occasional Thanksgiving turkey or grilled mahi-mahi means I don't qualify as the Real Deal) this woman makes my colon bunch. If she felt so strongly, she never should've whored herself as a Survivor contestant. I bet anything that she makes her vegetarian dishes to RESEMBLE meat-based counterparts, and probably thinks artificial furs are just dandy for a winter coat--she thinks it's fine to use animatronic animals so we can pretend we're watching the real thing being dismembered for our entertainment on teevee, after all--but it's my contention that a real activist would eschew even the APPEARANCE of "abuse." Enjoy those soybeans for what they are, revel in your wool or cotton clothing (hell, she strikes me as the type who'd wear PLASTIC happily!) and confine your television-viewing to the National Geographic Channel. Just don't alienate people by forcing your hypocrisy down our throats. Yes, it makes more sense to eat beans--twenty pounds of 'em will feed a sh¡tload of people, but only adds a pound of meat onto a cow (what is that, a couple man-sized burgers?)--but I can't say that I fault anyone who prefers to make meat-eating their trip, as long as they do it in an appreciative way--realize that animal gave its life for you and make sure you don't WASTE it in any way. And if you're in a position to know intimately that the chicken on your plate was a living creature and someone had to cut its head off, rip its feathers out, cut it open, rip out its guts, etc.--it didn't miraculously appear under cellophane in the WalMart freezer display--you're more likely to appreciate the sacrifice that bird made. (Kimmi made a special point of criticizing the PBS show where people endeavored to live for a period of time exactly as early settlers did--and who'd'a thunk it, that involved killing some chickens and a pig!) Boo to the LA Times for thinking she'd make a worthwhile contributor. And boo to little Kimmi, herself, who will ALWAYS be remembered more as the Pigpen of the Outback. (LOL--imagine if she'd been sent to Africa, instead!) "Duh" is an understatement. GT

My thoughts exactly, GT. The prepackaged, bloodless way that most of our food appears on our supermarket shelves seems to me to be much more harmful to Kimmi's cause than a show depicting a gentle, frightened animal fleeing for its life from a bunch of hungry hunters. Not that Kimmi would ever understand that, mind you.

Repeat after Charles Barkley -"I am not a role model." For your follow-up piece, are planning an article on the medicinal benefits of masturbation? Argh!

I actually kind of like Kimmi. I admire the cause she is standing up for. Back on Survivor, I hated her when she said that "masturbation" comment (which was just rude and foul in my opinion) but I began to feel bad for her after that. I don't think I would have wanted to bathe myself in that water either. And I respect her vegetarian beliefs and animal rights activism. I'm not a vegetarian myself, but I admire those that have the will power to stay away from animals. And by the way, I think she looks pretty cute off the island. She may have bad fashion sense (the picture with Mitchell at the S4 Finale) but she's still cute in my opinion.

Well Jeff, this is probably the only time I can join you in liking one of the weirder contestants - Personally, I really liked Kimmi during S2 (not as much as some other contestants, but she was never as low on my list as most people place her). However, I guess this could just be because she's the only Survivor I've ever had email correspondance with (BTW, she comes across well in writing IMO) ^-^ ----------------------------------- Now let us never speak of S3 again.

I agree Jeff. I don't mind Kimmi to much. She has the right to her opinions and in my meat eating opinion, her opinion is just as valid as mine. Anyone who feels otherwise is a little to self-rightous for me. Just because you do not agree with someone does not make their views less valid than yours. It is America after all. She should not try to cram it down others throats so to speak though.I also agree that Kimmi is looking much better post Outback. And by the way, my cousin works out with Kimmi at a gym on Long Island (were I am also from and grew up). My cousin hates her, but I'm sure it is a Cat Fight type thing. I have also been to Wall St. a bunch, the bar she used to work at. Later all, Dan D.R.

LAST EDITED ON 05-31-02 AT 03:54 AM (EST)I didn't like Kimmi when she was on S2, and it just goes to follow that I don't like her now. That said, here is my take on Vegatarianism. I was a vegetarian for about a year of my life when I was just a young hippy. I protested the cruelty to animal bit, and refused to eat meat for "humanitarian" reasons. I signed up for the military (US Navy Corpsman with the Marines) and it was either eat meat in boot camp, or die of starvation, so I ate meat. After getting out, I thought about my viewpoints a little more, and came to the conclusion that death of something has to occur for our lives to exist. Either animal, or plant, something has to die for us to be nourished. To extend that thought, I thought of all of the poor little carrots, just passing the time in the earth, before being violently ripped from the ground, and put into hot searing pans. I also thought of eating green beans. Does anyone realize, that what you are actually eating is a fetus? In comparison, eating these poor defensless vegetables is way more "inhumane" than eating a cow, or a chicken. At least the cow has an opportunity to run away, and the chicken can always fly. The vegtables don't stand a chance.

When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe. John Muir I totally disagree with the belief that nature was only made for the use of people. Human beings are not the center of the universe, and, if they are to sustain themselves, it is vitally important for them to be awakened to how closely they are linked with the rest of nature. Wynn Bullock Hear our prayer...for animals that are overworked, underfed, and cruelly treated; for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings against bars; for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry; for all that must be put to death...And for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. Albert Schweitzer Story: A woman at a zoo looked at an animal that seemed sad and bored. The woman said to him, "I'm sorry you're not in your natural habitat." The animal looked back and said, "Well, neither are you."

Naked has the point. And Sky, did you even watch the show? Yes, chickens can fly. It's just the domesticated (destined for slaughter) ones with clipped wing feathers that can't. Let us not get too moralistic about the evolutionary food chain. I like Ted Nugent's idea: Kill it and Grill it. But I'll stop eating animals, maybe, when they stop attacking us. That includes insects of the like that dessicated Chandra Levy's corpse. It's true that vegetables can't run away, but for the most part, we gave them life (by planting them) anyway.
