So we know model Evelina Zdunczyk is the queen of vegan and eco-friendly handbags.

But did you know most of her models are too. From Sbsnyc:

“The statuesque, Blonde, rose-lipped, blue-eyed beauty CEO of Vegan Queen, Evelina Zdunczyk, is proud to boast that most of her models are, in fact, vegans. This is the first thing she tells me. Then in a dreamy tone, Evelina expresses her gratitude to be able to showcase her vegan bags in a cohesive idea of this particular space, with these particular models, on this particular day. “It is all about sharing love, is it not?” With this ideal notion still lingering in the air, Evelina is swept away by her assistant, and I am left wondering if her pin-straight Platinum strands were eco-processed…”

Pure coincidence? Or does Evelina seek out employees that practice what she preaches?

Much confusion in the land of blogging.

Gym Class Heroes front man Travis McCoy revealed his favorite spots to hang while in New York.

One such place is Curly’s, which makes sense, considering Travis says he’s been a vegetarian for the past 5 years.

Another joint you might find him in is City Crab. And when asked the reason he frequented there, his reply was, “I go to eat crab legs, bro. Copious and disgusting amounts of it.”

Is Travis  one of those crabby pescetarians?  

Now granted, Travis is known for his bizarre humor, as he once said his last meal on earth would be a dinosaur burger to compensate for the fact that he’s been abstaining from meat for so long.

And it’s kind of strange he would mention both a vegetarian and seafood restaurant as two of his faves.

Ever read about him munching on a sea kitten? Is he just joking around? Chime in and let us know what you think!

So not everyone is excited that Heather Mills bought Big Fish Cafe, took the fish off the menu, fired the old employees, and plans to turn it into a vegan restaurant.

From a UK Guardian article titled, “How to be…A celebrity restaurateur”:

“First, remind everyone of the famously vegan status of your famous ex-husband’s beloved first wife. Next, buy up a local fishy concern and announce your intention to remove fish from the menu entirely. Get some nice press shots done of you in chef whites and make some grand pronouncements about how this will be the first in an international chain of vegan splendour. Finally, relax in the knowledge that no one eats in a restaurant merely sponsored by a non-famous civilian dum-di-dum with a piffling passion for food but with no actual history for paparazzi-titillating behaviour. Smile gamely when asked if you intend to throw a glass of water over the heads of hostile food critics.”

Safe to say the UK Guardian isn’t cheering for Heather’s new unfishy restaurant. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But we gotta check the Guardian on their facts. Linda McCartney was vegetarian, not vegan.

As we told you earlier, Project Runway finalist Kenley Collins was recently charged with assault after she threw a series of items, including a poor cat, at her fiance’s head while he was sleeping.

Tim Gunn of Project Runway shared his thoughts on the matter. Apparently Collins had a history of getting into “cat fights” on Project Runway with other contestants and judge Heidi Klum. Gunn reveals on the television show “Apt. 34″ that the clips were edited to make her look better.

“If the audience saw and heard as much of Kenley as I did, people would have turned their televisions off.”

Damn Tim. Tell it like it is!

Seriously, the story is quite sad and we’re hoping Collins get the anger management help she needs to avoid abusing any beings, animals or humans, in the future.

Blogging and news maniac Arianna Huffington, from the Huffington Post, recently hosted a reception party for poet Elizabeth Alexander.

Although she’s not a vegetarian, Arianna had plenty of non meat hors d’oeuvres for everyone.

Elizabeth Alexander is the poet who composed, “Praise Song For The Day,” for President Barack Obama’s inauguration.

Alexander’s poem can be purchased in a commemorative chapbook edition from Graywolf Press.

History tells us Huffington knows how to plan a good veggie party!

If you recall, the Huffington Post set up a relaxing, time-out suite during the Democatic National Convention that featured vegan hors d’oeuvres and yoga classes.

You can view pictures of the reception for Elizabeth Alexander at MediaBistro.

Hey all you vegetarian vampire fans. The Twilight DVD has recently come out and if you have what they call OCD, or “Obsessive Cullen Disorder,” you’ll be checking out the DVD’s extras, such as the watching the movie with commentary by Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and director Catherine Hardwicke.

During such commentary, the group starts talking about the shot where Bella is eating a vegetarian burger at the diner with her dad. Rob mentions he was talking about veggie burgers with Hayley Williams, singer from the band Paramore, that has a couple of songs on the soundtrack.

Hayley mentioned Gardenburgers, and Rob says he’d never heard of a veggie burger being called a “garden burger.”

Director Catherine Hardwicke says that a “garden burger” is a little more elegant way of saying veggie burger. To which Rob replies, “I think a veggie burger is much nicer. It sounds much more appealing. Garden burger sounds like something you found in the garden.”

Aw, did Rob just diss Gardenburgers without even knowing it?

If you know Gardenburger, you know they have a plethora of veggie patties, from Flamed-Grilled to Black Bean Chipotle to Garden Vegan. And you know they don’t taste like dirt!

We’ll have to educate Rob on Gardenburgers some day.

Boo, boo, and triple boo!

We have recently learned that Anne Hathaway, the actress who told David Letterman she was “vaguely vegan,” seems to think being almost vegan means enjoying a hamburger here and there.

During a premier of Valentino: The Last Emperor, Anne explained that her clothing wasn’t fitting as well as usual, due to her burger splurge.

“I’ve been enjoying a couple of post-Oscar burgers. So I didn’t fit into a lot of the vintage stuff. I wanted to wear something that was a little bit more forgiving.”

While we’re hoping that Anne meant she was stuffing her face with veggie burgers, that’s probably not the case.

And just when we thought Anne had broken up with meat for good.

Hmm…which vegan product do I like the most? Does it matter, since I’m a gorgeous model who can afford them all?

Yes, Miranda Kerr was a lucky woman recently as she got to help Victoria’s Secret launch an event in Los Angeles.

Here she’s standing next to the company’s new line of vegan, organic products, PINK.

PINK products contain natural things like soy milk, come in eco-friendly packaging and are completely animal friendly, being both vegan and not tested on animals.

We must say standing next to the product line makes her look even better. Hopefully, she went home and slathered some of that cruelty-free goodness all over her body. 

This Victoria’s Secret Angel has just earned an extra pair of wings!
