Lhasa Apsos: The Celebrity Magnet
With a breed as loyal and beautiful as the Lhasa Apso, it’s no wonder they’ve attracted a star-studded fan club. Let’s dive into the glitzy world of Lhasa Apso owners, where fur meets fame!
Animated Apsos
First up, let’s talk cartoons. In the classic Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, superhero Firestar has a Lhasa Apso named Ms. Lion. Clearly, the scriptwriters knew that Lhasa Apsos think they’re the real superheroes.
Reality Royalty
Reality TV queen Bethenny Frankel, founder of Skinnygirl Cocktails, has a Lhasa Apso named Cookie. Bethenny prefers Cookie’s coat short and chic, rather than the traditional long and luxurious look. Talk about a fashion-forward pup!
Glee-ful Pooches
Glee star Jane Lynch has a Lhasa Apso named Olivia, after the legendary Olivia Newton-John. Jane’s household is a veritable zoo with another puppy and some kittens. She’s a known animal advocate, so Olivia is in good company.
Pop Star Pups
Gwen Stefani, singer, The Voice judge, and fashion icon, had a Lhasa Apso named Meggan. Meggan, who followed Gwen everywhere (as Lhasa Apsos do), earned the nickname “Lamb” from the nursery rhyme. Adorable, right?
Talk Show Tails
Ellen DeGeneres, who voiced a fish in animated movies, is a real-life Lhasa Apso owner. Who knew Dory had such refined taste in dogs?
Pianist’s Pooch
Flamboyant pianist Liberace, of course, had a Lhasa Apso. No word on whether the dog had as many costume changes as its owner, but one can dream.
Hollywood Hounds
The grand dame Elizabeth Taylor was also a Lhasa Apso enthusiast. Imagine those glamorous Hollywood nights with a Lhasa Apso by her side.
Literary Lhasa
Serious literary figure Kurt Vonnegut was said to have a soft spot for Lhasa Apsos. Even the most profound minds need a fluffy companion.
Socialite’s Sidekick
The late Peggy Guggenheim, from the illustrious Guggenheim family, was often photographed with her beloved Lhasa Apsos, known back then as Lhasa Apso terriers. Art and dogs – a perfect match!
Royal Rovers
The late Queen Sofia of Spain adored Lhasa Apsos, much like Queen Elizabeth’s love for Corgis. The royal bearing of the Lhasa Apso breed suited Queen Sofia’s dignified manner perfectly.
So there you have it – a breed that’s not just loyal and beautiful but also a magnet for the rich and famous. If you ever needed a reason to love Lhasa Apsos even more, now you have a whole list of celebrity endorsements! 🐾✨
