The anti-circus crowd gained an unlikely ally this week when Jackass costar Steve-O spoke out against circus cruelty. It seems that the guy with a big tattoo of himself on his back is a graduate of Ringling Brothers’ clown college, and he says he’s haunted by memories of how the animals were treated. Of course, this is the same guy who swallowed a live goldfish and puked it back up on film, so his credibility and judgement are a bit suspect, but hey, we vegans never met a pro-animal celebrity we didn’t like, right?
