Russell Simmons recently denied that his Phat Farm clothing was in contention to design new uniforms for McDonalds.
"Not only is it not true, I'm not in talks with them [McDonalds]. I'm a vegan! It goes against my principles," Simmons stated during an in-store appearance to promote Phat Farm in Vancouver, Canada. "I don't eat anything that runs away from me. I'm going to have to issue a rebuttal about this."

Simmons was upset after reports surfaced that Phat Farm was talking with Micky D's about potentially giving their uniforms a fashion makeover. Simmons took the opportunity to share that he won't abuse the environment or exploit animals for a profit. He is presently campaigning for People For Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
In related Simmons news, Russ has been spending time in Vancouver to appear in The L Word; Showtime's critically-acclaimed series that explores Lesbianism. Simmons appears as himself on the show. There's no word on how many episodes Russ will be featured in.
"I think there's a lot of girls who are struggling with their sexuality and they're living with the Bible Belt in America or somewhere and they've been abused for having a certain sexual orientation," Simmons offered. "They're inspired by 'The L Word.' They deserve something like 'The L Word.'"
