Fall Out Boy Concert In Las Vegas

“I used to be a butcher at Pick N’ Save, then I became a vegetarian soon after for obvious reasons.”

—Andy (The Butcher) Mrotek of The Academy Is on how he got his nickname. The name stuck, but he’s just butchering plants now.

Rogan For Target Debuts At Barneys New York

As an adolescent, how did you rebel? Break curfew? Dress trampy and date the bad boy? How about eat meat behind mom and dad’s back? Aisha Tyler of Fox’s 24 and Ross’ girlfriend, Charlie, in Friends,  was a very, very bad girl. In an interview with Britain’s Night and Day magazine:

“I love food. I’m not someone who has ever been able to survive on lettuce leaves. My parents were vegetarians and I went to school with sandwiches with tofu and greens. None of the other kids wanted to trade their lunches with me. It forced me to be funny and make friends. I had to assimilate with the other youngsters even though I felt like an outsider. When other kids were rebelling by smoking and drinking, I was going out and sneaking meat on the side. It sounds crazy but my idea of rebellion was to buy a turkey dinner and eat it without mum and dad knowing.”

Bad Aisha. Bad, bad, bad. That’s an act punishable of at least a year’s worth of grounding. And who said anything about surviving on lettuce leaves? Didn’t Tyler’s parents know about Morningstar Farms?

AFI and Blaqk Audio frontman Davey Havok has put his pretty face on video to let you know he thinks humans were not meant to consume animals. There’s even a little bit of fashionista in him–he’s making shirts that portray the same message for his new clothing line Zu Boutique. Looks like he’s wearing one with a dancing (soy?) hotdog on it. Go here to register to win a free T-shirt before September 24th and watch his PSA video below.

“As human beings, we are not meant to consume animals; we are not meant to consume animal products. … I’ve begun making shirts … to remind you–to remind everyone–that it is, in fact, murder.”

Brooke Shields: Vegetarian Gone Bad?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, September 9th, 2008 in Actresses, Models, Not So Vegetarian.

The NBC Universal Experience

Brooke Shields is gracing the cover of Shape Magazine for October. Supposedly, she has 5 tips for staying healthy, fit, and happy. However, she made a comment that although she used to be a vegetarian, she eats meat now and it’s what her body thinks is right.

“I was a vegetarian for 15 years until I got pregnant. I just needed to eat meat. I believe you really have to listen to your body.”

We wonder what our favorite vegetarian models like Christie Brinkley would think of that comment. Better yet, we wonder what you guys think of that comment. Do you believe her body was telling her to eat meat? Or just eat better? What do you think about people who think switching back to meat will bring them better health?
