Vegetarian Star

Vegetarian Vampires have taken over! The film, Twilight, based on the novel series by Stephenie Meyer, took a bite of $70.5 million at the box office during it’s opening weekend.

It features a group of vampires, known as the “vegetarian vampires,” because they don’t eat humans. However, they still eat animals in the forest, so sounds like they have some identity issues.

One of the vegetarian, but not really vampires, Angela Weber, played by Christian Serratos spoke to Peta2.org about her thoughts on dissection, fur, and animal testing in cosmetics. Since Serratos wears glasses, the film’s producers decided to write this into her character.

After watching the video, don’t forget to enter to win the entire Twilight book series as well as a pair of tickets to watch the vegetarian vampires at a theatre near you.

Clothing is expensive enough. When you throw in designer labels and aim to be cruelty-free the price jumps so much, it makes you want to take a sewing class and make your own.

Leona Lewis wants to change that and expressed her desire to do so to Sunday Express’ S.

“I love Stella McCartney – but her clothes are very expensive,” Lewis said of the eco-friendly fashion designer. “I think people need a more affordable option.”

“I’m trying to find the right companies to work with, sourcing different things and talking to creative teams.”

“I would love to promote an affordable line of non-leather bags and shoes.”

The all veg band Rise Against likes to have a little fun while searching for food on tour, like using scooters to get them to eateries of their choice.

Life may have gotten easier for them to find veg food on the road, especially in comparison to rockers before their time, like Tom Schultz and Boston.

Lots of mainstream grocery stores have little “island” sections of food for vegans and vegetarians now and it’s not uncommon to find a Gardenburger patty at many restaurants. Even fast food chains are complying.

Band member Joe Principe has spoken about how he thinks the vegan chicken patty at Kentucky Fried Chicken in Canada is “amazing.” Now Tim McIlrath is expressing his astonishment about another fast food establishment, Burger King.

“If you would have told me when I was 17 years old that Burger King was going to have a veggie burger, I would have told you that you were crazy,” McIlrath said in an interview.

Luckily, we’re not crazy (at least according to the test that we know lots of restaurants carry veg options) and there’s a good chance if you’re out and about you won’t go hungry thanks to veg options at places like Subway. Is there a fast food or mainstream restaurant where you can find awesome meatless (and maybe even dairyless) grub?

Tell us so everyone can make mental maps of where to stop while driving in the middle of Lake Nowhere to Somewhere.

Ruben Studdard is in veg rehab. The “American Idol” Season 2 winner who was very public about how his vegetarian diet helped him lose weight has been lapsing a little. But he’s trying to get, ahem, clean.

When asked by The Sunday Paper if he was still keeping up with his vegetarian lifestyle, he laughed and replied, “Currently trying to return.”

What’s the deal with this? Ruben Studdard, who raved about Morningstar Farms products, vegetarian buffalo wings, and PF Chang’s Buddha’s Feast and Tofu Lettuce Wraps turned to meat for some satisfaction?

Former Idol contestant Kellie Pickler recently became veg with the help of vegetarian Idol winner Carrie Underwood. Is this some kind of karma thing, where we lose one and gain another. Surely there’s enough room in the Idol Vegetarian Club?

Maybe it was because of his new wife’s eating habits. Boo! We can’t have any beefy Yoko Ono’s breaking up the veg band.

So we will anxiously await Ruben’s return to our side. Have any of you ever fallen off the veg bandwagon for any reason?
