Vegetarian Star

Chi-Force

We’ve seen what can happen on reality TV when a vegetarian or vegan contestant can’t get the food they need for their diet.

But if anything like that happens on Vh1’s “Confessions of a Teen Idol”, vegan Eric Nies might not have a problem going hungry. It’s not like he hasn’t done it before.

The original MTV “Real World” star, who is now a life coach, once fasted for 40 days to raise awareness about obesity and world hunger, according to the Purium Health Products website.

Technically, it wasn’t complete fasting as he drank three to four energy drinks but abstained from solid foods.

Here’s a video of Eric and other former teen idols with clips from Vh1’s “Confessions of a Teen Idol.”
