Tara Harper, from the Bravo show Most Eligible: Dallas, is not only a vegetarian, but also a serious animal activist.

She actually founded a large animal rescue organization in Dallas several years ago, called Paws in the City.

She said:

"I started it up with no idea about what I was doing, then a week later Katrina hit and we took in a bunch of dogs from Louisiana and Mississippi… I had people contact me from all over the country to say they didn’t know they could just go and adopt a cat or dog out of a shelter rather than buying one at a pet store."

She has even adopted eight dogs of her own!

Aside from loving the heck out of animals, she's also been a vegetarian for 20 years. Though it wasn't easy in the beginning, she said:

"I had no idea what I was doing and gained 20 pounds because I was just eating bread and pasta."

It must've been hard trying to start out in Dallas… she said:

"Vegetarian and vegan restaurants aren’t very common here, but they are beginning to pop up."

A healthy, cruelty-free eater, and animal activist. We see why she's "most eligible."

Whoa. Bravo is NOT messing around anymore!

The network announced today that not only would they be renewing five of their reality programs for the 2011-2012 season - including second seasons for Top Chef: Just Desserts and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, a third season of Bethenny Ever After, and fourth seasons of The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Tabatha's Salon Takeover - but also that they'd be picking up 11 EFFING NEW SHOWS, as well!

Yes. 11!

Granted, some of these are just spin-offs of already-existing series, but still! That's pretty unheard of!

We guess they know their audience and what they want! Can't say we blame them!

Go big or go home!
