NICE GUYS AT ‘MEAN GIRLS’
Ia good Amanda rescue a dog in need. “Alpha Dog” star may have met her match in a tiny pup. The 32-year-old actress and animal rights activist was honored at Tuesday’s Save Them All Spotlight Award, where she met a Chihuahua mix named Buttercup (inset with her) and fell in love. “I’d love to take this puppy home,” she told fellow animal lover at the event. “I’m tempted.” But there’s a catch. Buttercup has a sister named Clover, and Seyfried was overheard telling a friend at the awards ceremony that she hated the idea of the sibling pups being separated. That friend, whom sources could not identify, made plans to meet with the SoHo adoption center where Clover is staying on Thursday to discuss giving her a forever home. Seyfried’s reps did not respond when asked if “The Last Word” star would be seeing more of Buttercup. Seyfried, who has a farm in the Catskills and spends time in Los Angeles, has a 7-year-old Australian shepherd named Finn, whom she frequently talks about in interviews and posed with in a 2014 Elle magazine spread. Finn has an Instagram account.
Seyfried was in town to receive an award for her work with Best Friends Animal Society, which works with no-kill shelters nationwide and has a sanctuary in Utah. She was introduced at the event by the organization’s CEO and co-founder
In her acceptance speech, Seyfried stated her goal to make America a no-kill country for animals by 2025.
“We have love and we have right on our side and both of those things are unstoppable and we are actually winning this,” she declared. “We are going to keep winning this and our victory will be all the sweeter in having gotten there together.” Damians collided at the August Wilson Theatre on Tuesday. That’s where (inset), who played Damian in the 2004 movie “Mean Girls,” met who plays that role in the Broadway rendition of the film. Franzese came backstage to meet the cast and signed one of the bathroom stalls with his character’s signature phrase “I totally went there!” Earlier that day, we’re told that Franzese sent “break a leg” cookies to the cast of the show, which opened Sunday.
