Never underestimate a child.
Young children may be ignorant or have learned to think for themselves and have their own clear and clear code of conduct.

More than twenty years ago, When Liana Lewis, who was six or seven years old, went to the farm with her mother and saw chickens and pigs in cages, she immediately understood where the meat she usually ate came from.
For a child who loves animals and loves them very much, this terrible and cruel truth is so sad and guilty.
- I'll never eat again!
Liana said to her mother.
Liana stopped eating meat at the age of six or seven, became an ovo vegetarian at the age of twelve, and when she learned about the health risks associated with dairy and eggs, she officially became a vegan.

“The vegan love is real！ (Vegan love is real!) ）”
Liana posted her vegan meal on her Instagram and solicited vegetarian recipes from fans.

Empathy is an innate ability of people.
Especially at an early age, the innocent and pure heart that has not been tempered by the worldly wind and dust is more likely to perceive the emotions of others.
When Liana used to walk along the circus, she often saw images of trained animals being forced to lose their freedom, dignity and even life, and those painful memories remained in her mind for a long time.

Growing up with greater abilities, Liana did not hesitate to sponsor hopefield animals anctuary and become its ambassador.
Through the efforts of Liana and the reserve staff, they rescue camels with only two legs, castrated goats, pregnant and abandoned ewes... Today, in Hopefield animals anctuary, more than 200 animals live and are well cared for.

In her own home, Liana also has a rabbit that was "redeemed" for $200 from a homeless man, and two stray dogs that her mother retrieved.
She named the rabbits Melrose to commemorate their first encounter on Melrose Avenue.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. - "Spider-Man"
As a red-and-purple singer, Liana can easily garner countless flowers and applause with her singing, but Liana does not feel that this is the only meaning of the influence that public figures have.
She stood on stage, in the spotlight, holding the microphone, hoping that her music could bring beauty to more people, and hoping that more people could hear the voice she had heard to help the ineffable animals.
Liana will appeal on her social platform about the tragic situation of the animals, call on everyone to treat animals well, protect animals, and use her and Hopefield animals anctuary staff's experience of rescuing animals as a positive example, encouraging everyone to give love to some of the reserves.
She has worked with Animals For Good (PETA) for a long time, filmed promotional videos for PETA, and enjoys participating in various activities of the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) and the International Humane Society (HSI).
Just thinking of being able to help those cute animals, Liana felt that she was full of the power to act!
| Advocating the beauty of zero cruelty and |
There is no girl in the world who does not love beauty.
Girls never skimp on cosmetics, clothing, and other items that add points to their beauty.
Liana is no exception. But the difference is that Liana rejects any beauty that would harm the animals.
FUR FREE FUR, always her persistence!
So when she was approached by Harrod, a Department Store in London that sold fur products, with a £100 contract, Liana didn't waver in her principles for the sky-high price.

Instead, she's happy to work with animal-friendly brands like The Body Shop and KISS, and back in 2013 she launched a cruelty-free line of cosmetics that bears her name at The Body Shop.
She strongly opposes animal testing of cosmetics and all forms of animal cruelty.
Beauty that does not hurt is true beauty!
| Love and peace |
Looking at the object of a person's reverence, you can often know what kind of person it is.
Liana was invited to attend and perform at the birthday party of former South African President Mandela. This experience has always been regarded as an honor by Liana.
But that sense of glory is not because she was able to attend the president's banquet, but because Mandela was the person she revered.
Mandela, the "founding father of South Africa", was a well-known pacifist in the political circles of the 1990s and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993.
Human hope is like an eternal star, and dark clouds cannot hide its light. Peace is not an ideal, a dream, it is the wish of all people.
Liana bluntly said she loved the picture of "the war is over"; she prayed for Paris, where there were multiple terrorist attacks overnight, and she took to the streets to support the young students' march against guns...
The world is so beautiful that it is the responsibility of all of us to guard it.
Even better than Liana's mixed-race appearance is her dolphin tone, which can hover in the super-high tone;
Even better than her musical talent is her selfless heart!
Beauty always has a day to pass away with the age, and the song always has a day to stop with the end of life, but the respect and love for life will be passed on like a torch, and it will continue from generation to generation in the world.
