Fuji Rock Festival Day 3

The “Curbside Prophet” Jason Mraz has been a vegan since April 1st. While some stars on tour may find it hard for restaurants and hotels to cater to them, Mraz prefers to make his own contraptions.

“Rather than rely on room service and overpriced restaurant versions of vegetarian cuisine, I shop at local grocers and eat my own delicious homemade meals.”

Like Russell Simmons, Mraz thinks yoga is where all the good looking chicks are as there are many “hot girls fresh from yoga” to be found in natural foods stores.

He and his friend Toca Rivera both started eating vegan and since then, Rivera, who has diabetes, claims his diabetic problems has disappeared.

But don’t tell Mraz that eating unprocessed, vegan food is considered “alternative.”

“ALTERNATIVES? How did we let nature’s supply take a back seat and become so hard to reach?”

Lost Boys 2 Corey Feldman No Vampire Or Botox Junkie, Just Vegetarian

World Premiere of Step Brothers

A few excerpts from Corey Feldman’s interview with Blockbuster Buzz  about Lost Boys 2. If you haven’t already seen his new ad with wife Susie Feldman…we’ll let you take a look and find out for yourself.

Quite a few people have commented on how you’ve hardly aged since the Eighties. Are you in fact a vampire?
Yes I am. (long pause..then laughter) People are always assuming I have Botox or surgery or something but I just don’t believe in the ageing process. I don’t drink alcohol, I’m a vegetarian and I think all that helps.

Was Corey Haim’s cameo planned to be a much larger part at some point?
Well, initially he wasn’t set to be in the movie at all. I really pushed for him to be included and at one point we were scheduled to shoot I think 3 scenes with him. Then there were some breakdowns and problems with the shoot, and Warners effectively restructured the deal after it was agreed so he just ended up doing this little cameo.

There’s a lot of talk about a third Lost Boys film – Just natural excitement or is something going to happen?
Well, I don’t know – The studio are very happy with the response to Lost Boys 2 and it’s being talked about a lot but there’s nothing certain…yet!

What is the strangest thing you have in your fridge? You don’t have to admit it, but apparently In Style Magazine asked celebrities to admit theirs and Alicia Silverstone said, “Raw Balls.”

“I like the name,” the vegan actress said. “They’re made of dates, walnuts, almonds, carob and salt. They are so good.”

Moby Stays Out Late, Wakes Up In Time To Blast Greedy Musicians

2002 MTV Video Music Awards - Rehearsals

While a vegetarian/vegan lifestyle can dramatically improve your health, you still won’t be able to party all night and get away with it forever, according to Moby anyway.

“My lifestyle isn’t quite as healthy as people might imagine it to be,” he said in an interview with The Daily Record.

“I am a vegan, but I also tend to go out too much and stay out too late, especially as I live in New York.”

“I’m certainly not getting up at six in the morning to do yoga – I’m usually just getting home at that time.”

The interview centered on Moby’s thoughts of the music industry’s greediness and why musicians really should be making records.

He said: “A lot of my friends in the music industry have conversations about how to distribute music – and it tends to centre on how to make money.”

“I think the focus should be on the artistry and creativity, not focusing on the commercial side of things. Musicians should concentrate on making records and not be too concerned about how people listen. The point of producing music isn’t whether audiences will buy it or listen to it for free. I might be naive, but I think, if you make a good record, people will want to listen regardless of the medium it’s delivered by.”

Marcus Patrick Reduces Gym Time With Vegan Diet

Comments Off on Marcus Patrick Reduces Gym Time With Vegan Diet

Marcus Patrick sat down with Skope magazine and gave the lowdown on many things including his diet, Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse, and how someone who doesn’t exactly have his six pack looks can get a wonderful woman.

Stoli: You keep yourself in great shape. Can you offer a glimpse into your gym & diet routine?

Marcus: I am a vegan. I don’t eat flesh or Dairy. This has helped me so much with staying lean. There is So little saturated fat in a vegan Diet that I can afford to only hit the gym Once a Week. But I do run track twice a week.

Stoli: In America, it seems as though the public thrives off of negative behavior displayed by Britney, Amy Winehouse, or Bobby Brown. How do you look at all that and does that influence you at all?

Marcus: I live My life free, I dance, I train people, I act, I sing. I simply treat others with respect and hope they do the same to me. It’s odd that society rewards all the disfunctional behavior with attention and contracts.

Stoli: For the average joe out there with not much game, can you offer some advice how he can get a hot chick to go out with him?

Marcus: Get his shit together! Work out, eat healthy, get a job, get educated. Bring something to the table for a woman. Let her know you can be there for her if she’s in need. A lazy guy has nothing to offer.

Russell Simmons Demanding Risotto Everywhere In New York

Lokah Music Presents The Release Of

Not long ago, we brought you the news of Russell Simmons asking the chef at Nick and Tony’s Restaurant in New York to make his risotto vegan.

We are guessing risotto is one of this yoga loving hip hop mogul’s favorites as we have read that another New York restaurant made changes to their menu in order to please him.

The Waverly Inn’s chef John DeLucie makes quinoa risotto with green curry sauce as a result of a request from Mr. Simmons.

We’ve never had the pleasure of spotting Mr. Simmons live in action (yet), but we definitely are taking notes in case we’re ever awarded the prize of having lunch or dinner with him.
