Janeane Garofalo Bacon Vegetarian

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Actresses, Comedians, Not So Vegetarian.

An Evening With The Writers & Performers Of Saturday Night Live

Janeane Garofalo has said that although she was a vegetarian for 18 years, she now eats bacon. However, she only eats it about twice a year.

She, along with several other celebrities performed at Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary’s Komedy for Karma last night and she took the time to talk to green gossip website Ecorazzi.

E:You were a vegetarian for 18 years…

JG: Right, but I’m no longer a vegetarian.

E: I read that.

JG: I’m a vegetarian except for bacon. The amount of times I eat bacon is negligible though. I’d say I eat bacon once or twice a year. But other than that — no meat at all.

We often like to rag on former vegetarian celebrities and those who “slip” but even activist Alicia Silverstone has said she’d rather have someone be almost vegetarian than a regular meat eater.

Once or twice a year baconator? Not too bad.

Of course, we’ll use this to remind Janeane of the delicious meatless bacon out there, like Lightlife’s Smart Bacon. Taste like the real thing, even meat eaters enjoy it. Try it with as a B.L.T. sometime. When you come back with your belly full of vegan bacon rambling about how you can’t wait for your next sandwich, we won’t say we told you so.

From Stray Cats To Spayed Cats, Meatloaf Needs Lentils In Name

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Bands.

2009 MusiCares

We’ve already stated our position on asking a man to change his name for a PETA campaign. Now it looks like PETA Jr., or peta2.org, is doing the same thing, and created a list of bands that should change their names from animal unfriendly to friendly ones.

We agree there are some bands out there with names that sound oh so ugly to the vegetarian’s ear. What’s worse is that some of these bands are vegetarian!

Frank Iero, MacBeth vegan shoe boy, is in a band called Leathermouth. Ewww! Peta2 thinks “Pleathermouth” is better for the image. Please pass this on to their agents.

Meatloaf, who at least once dabbled in vegetarianism, could sell more albums to vegans if he called himself “Lentil Loaf.”

The creepiest of all? Cattle Decapitation, a death metal band full of vegetarians, who PETA thinks should rename themselves “Cattle Appreciation.” Cattle Decapitation? We’re with you on that one, PETA!

We can’t forget that caring for animals is just as important as not eating them, and the Stray Cats are overpopulating the music scene. Please takes those guys to the vet, so they can be the “Spayed Cats.”

For the remaining list of bands who should undergo name overhaul, visit peta2.org.

Eva Longoria Turned To A Skinny Bitch When She Got Desperate

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Actresses.

Eleven Spa Vegas' Launch Party

So when you hear that someone like Eva Longoria wants to lose weight, laughter immediately occurs.

Longoria is the tiniest of tiny, but according to a source, the Desperate Housewife recently lost 10 pounds.

We’d like to think it’s because she’s reducing her meat intake, like she vowed for her New Year’s Resolution.

Eva was reportedly really into the vegan diet book, Skinny Bitch, given to her by vegan actress Lake Bell.

Eva is rumored to still eat fish, but has increased the amount of fruits and vegetables in her diet.

Hats off to Eva!

How are your New Year’s Resolutions coming along? Still going strong? Went out the door on January 3rd?

Bar Refaeli Raises Diet Bar And Graces Swimsuit Edition Of SI

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Models.

Sports Illustrated Launches The 2009 Swimsuit Issue in New York City

Update 2/28/09: We are so sad to learn that Bar is NOT a vegetarian. Although a few sources said she was, as of now, we learn she admits to eating a cheeseburger and fries once a week. Boo! 

So salivating men, Bar Refaeli is gracing the cover of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition looking finer than fine!

Leonardo DiCaprio’s got some issues as he keeps making her his on/off girlfriend (currently on), but can’t seem to make up his mind. Or maybe it’s her that can’t decide if she wants to tie all her hotness down to Titanic boy.

At any rate, Refaeli is rumored to be vegetarian. How cool would that be if it’s true?! Lots of sources say she is, but we haven’t found anything confirmed by Bar yet, but be on the lookout and Puh-lease let us know!

We’d love to add this gal to the veg model club with Christie Brinkley.

BTW, those legs come from practicing the discipline of Israeli self defense known as Krav Maga, a huge part of Bar’s fitness routine.

Tobey Maguire And Ruby Enjoy Real Happy Food At Real Food Daily

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Actors, Children, Food & Drink.

**EXCLISUVE** Tobey Maguire spends some quality time with daughter Ruby Sweetheart and a friend in LA

If you crawl up buildings like Spiderman to stalk Tobey Maguire, then you should be crawling along Real Food Daily often, as this man never seems to get enough of it.

The actor who’s expecting another baby with his wife Jennifer Meyer this spring was spotted with his daughter, Ruby, and a friend picking up some food from the vegan restaurant.

Looks like Ruby had a ton of fun!

So awesome that little Ruby is getting to experience healthy eating with dad at such a young age. In a world where kids think a Happy Meal is one of the basic food groups, good to know Ruby’s growing up with the good stuff.
