And the newest Celebrity Buddhist is…

…Kate Moss.

According to the Daily Mirror: “Kate Moss is trying to slow down her fast-moving life by meditating. And now a pal tells us: ‘She’s really into Buddhism and has bought a bronze Buddha.’”

Of course, that’s not the statue, pictured there. That’s actually a statue OF Kate Moss, AS the Buddha, by artist Marc Quinn. (I originally covered this back in From the Worst Horse’s Mouth, my column which ran in the Shambhala Sun for a while. You can read that here.)

I wonder if Quinn is somehow responsible for Kate getting the meditation bug?

    Mocking someone’s figure in art seems a tad problematic from a Buddhist perspective….
