Oh, Joe He Didn’t!

Update: Some sources say he locked his keys in his car in a Wendy’s Parking Lot and gave into a chicken sandwich. Some say Dairy Queen. If anyone can verify the exact meat wh*re he solicited that night, we’d like to set the record straight. Currently, there are no financial prizes, but you’ll be rewarded with pride and joy. 

Joe Trohman, lead guitarist for the musical group Fall Out Boy, isn’t a vegetarian or vegan like bandmates Andy Hurley and Patrick Stump.

But there was a time.

He is often quoted as saying he used to be vegetarian. Then one day he found himself in a Dairy Queen parking lot. The rest is carnivore history.

He sure could use an Andy Hurley shake.

Karl Lagerfeld: Kill Fur Coat Before Fur Coat Kills You!

Fashion Group International Presents The 25th Annual Night Of Stars

Where is Tim Gunn and his anti-fur video when you need him?

Fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld recently defended the use of fur in the industry.

“In a meat-eating world, wearing leather for shoes and clothes and even handbags, the discussion of fur is childish,” he told The Telegraph.

Although he doesn’t personally wear fur, he insists that people make a living from hunting and “killing those beasts who would kill us if they could.”

Lagerfeld’s statements might make sense if we all lived in caveman days. But someone should inform him that fur today is produced in factories and much of it comes from countries with no ethical standards whatsoever as to how the animals are treated.

It’s a pretty sure thing that today’s Hollywood starlets aren’t thinking, “Darn it, that fox is going to eat me. Make me a coat, quick!” Not to mention how ferocious the 4 lb. mink are.

He agrees that animals should be killed “nicely” as much as possible and admits he’s a wuss when it comes to eating them.

“I can hardly eat meat because it has to look like something what it was not when it was alive,” he said.

The last time we checked, fur looks the same on or off the original live animal.

Stella McCartney Still Steppin’ Out

Last month, vegan shoe lovers cried a river after learning the news that our dear Natalie Portman’s line of Te Casan shoes had ceased production due to a bad economy.

But Stella McCartney, her UK sole sister (pun intended), is still steppin’ strong and you can wear her gorgeous brown suedette boot this winter, looking sharp with a clear conscious.

Be ritzy, yet comfortable with a combination of a spike heel and slouchy ankle.

Best of all, you know the only skin ever involved with them is your own.

U2’s Larry Mullen Jr. Found Morocco A Mess For Veg Eatin’

Music Industry Trusts' Awards 2008 - Inside

Bollywood actor Rajneesh Duggal was stuck eating veggies and rice every day after discovering France wasn’t the vegetarian mecca of the world during his visit.

He’s not the only one who feels the pain of trying to stick to your eating habits while overseas.

Larry Mullen, Jr., drummer for the band U2, described the food as being less than pleasant when he visited Morocco years ago.

“Bono had been talking about this religious festival and he mentioned it to me, thinking that I’d shoot it down. And I said, “Actually, that’s a good idea, I’d like to go back to Morocco.” The last time I was there the food was shite. I was vegetarian, full-blown, verging on vegan, and so it was a difficult time. But underneath all the cultural shock I enjoyed it. So i was happy to go back. I felt musically it would be a very good thing.”

Did Pamela Anderson Get Her Christmas Present?

Pamela Anderson Press Conference Ahead Of Big Brother Appearance

Tis the season for returns.

The giving and receiving phase is over. Now it’s time to gather those gift receipts, switch and swap, and yes, even re-gift everything you got last month that you don’t like. Ideally, you got what you wanted. Wonder if Pamela Anderson did as well…

Last month she told Female First that all she wanted for Christmas was Stella McCartney. Now before you guys go drooling at the thought of what this might mean, we’ll set the record straight: she’s talking about cruelty-free fashion.

“You feel very alive wearing her clothes and knowing nothing has been killed,” she said.

Pamela once said she felt bad at the thought of starting the trend of wearing Ugg boots-which are made of sheepskin-that she eventually stopped wearing.

“I feel so guilty for that craze being started around my ‘Baywatch’ days – I used to wear them with my red swimsuit to keep warm – never realising that they were SKIN! I thought they were shaved kindly. People like to tell me all the time that I started that trend – yikes!”
