Is hummus thicker than water? Vegetarian Bryce Dallas Howard recently defended Christian Bale, who is also veg, on recent allegations that he created a hostile environment on The Terminator by throwing temper tantrums on the set. Bale has been making headlines lately for an alleged assault on his mother and sister.

Howard, who played Bale’s wife, insisted he was nothing but a gentleman and suggested the role he played may have caused him to be misunderstood.

“This man is just a gentleman, an amazing person. I adore him and I just can’t wait to be with him next week,” said Howard.

“(His character) John Connor is a very intense character… and so misinterpretations could happen.”

Both Howard and Bale are vegetarians. Howard was introduced to veganism by Joaquin Phoenix, her co-star on The Village. Phoenix apparently showed her a documentary on animal cruelty called Earthlings. Howard reported in 2006 that she switched to vegetarian in order to help her boost her amino acid levels in preparation for pregnancy.

Although country music legend Emmylou Harris just released a new album in June, she’s no stranger to the music industry and has been praised by the media-even when the praises weren’t exactly the type she was looking for.

Washington Post music critic Josh Freedom duLac once said: “Emmylou Harris is like bacon. She makes everything better.”

“Well, I don’t know if I like that,” she told Straight.com, “because I’m a vegetarian.”

“How about cheese?” she suggested.  “Let’s say cheese.”

The 61 year old Nashville, TN resident lives with her mother and also runs a dog shelter.

Her latest album, All I Intended To Be, features collaborations with Dolly Parton, Vince Gill, and Kate and Anna McGarrigle.

“It encompasses all the different hats I’ve worn—songwriting, doing covers, working with so many great people,” she said. “In a sense, it was a return to a sound that’s been with me throughout my career.”
