While promoting her new movie Gone Tuesday on Conan, Amanda Seyfried revealed she has the start of what she hopes will be an extensive taxidermy collection.
In addition to a miniature horse, she said, "I have a chick who I just got – her name's Linda. Well, she's not alive, but her name would've been Linda. I have an owl named Beatrix. I have a few butterflies. That's about it for now."
