PETA has unveiled its latest ad against animal testing.

Layla Kayleigh, the star of MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew, is asking you to think before buying lipstick or mascara that may have been worn on a rabbit or rat first.

“I don’t think people are purposely buying cosmetics and household products that are tested on animals. I just don’t think they think twice. … It really takes such a small thing to make such big impact, you know, and I feel like the more people get involved, the more it can make a difference.”

Natalie Portman No Longer Vegan Thanks To Carvel Ice Cream?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, August 28th, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink.

The Apple Store in Soho presents Meet The Director: Natalie Portman

Has one of our favorite vegan actresses fallen to the scoop?

During an interview with Jake Gyllenhaal for Interview magazine, Jake asked Natalie Portman what her favorite food was.

Natalie said she not only loved “Carvel Ice Cream,” but there was no way you could make it any better.

PORTMAN: Well, I don’t think you can really improve upon Carvel ice cream cake.

GYLLENHAAL: I’m more Baskin-Robbins style myself.

PORTMAN: Oh really? I am so Carvel. Did I just bring us back to 1985 Long Island?

From the dialogue provided, it looks like Natalie was thinking back in the days…when she still ate dairy.

1985? Wasn’t she still sporting her training wheels while eating that Carvel ice cream?

What do you think? Is Nat milking the cow while she listens to obscene hip hop music?

We’d hate to think so, given the fact there are so many vegan ice cream brands out there.

Halloween 2 Gave Sheri Moon Zombie Food Horror Stories

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, August 28th, 2009 in Actresses, Film & TV, Food & Drink.

Halloween 2 Premiere in Hollywood

Sheri Moon Zombie, wife of director and musician Rob Zombie, learned the hard way it’s not always easy to get veg food in every part of the country.

While filming for Halloween 2 in Georgia, Sherri said she had the choice of either fast food or Walmart.

“I did not like Georgia at all. We stayed in this town called Covington and, whenever I had a day off, it was Walmart or fast food. I’m a vegetarian, so I don’t eat fast food. And, I said, “If I go into Walmart again, I’m going to shoot myself.”

Sounds like a true horror story.

Rob’s a veggie too and he’s even included two main characters that are vegetarian in Halloween 2, which hit the theatres today.

Torrie Wilson: The Semi-Vegetarian

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, August 28th, 2009 in Athletes-Games-Sports, Food & Drink, Models, Reality TV.

Awards Room At The Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards 2007

We told you how wrestling champion and model Torrie Wilson was convinced to go vegetarian after spending some quality time with John Salley in the jungle.

Uh, in the jungle for I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.

Always important to explain yourself fully.

Anyway, turns out Torrie is not completely veg-she still eats birds.

But at least she’s dramatically cut a lot of meat from her diet.

From Diva-Dirt.com:

You noted that you’ve become a vegetarian since leaving the jungle, how did that come about?
Torrie: I have become semi-vegetarian. I cut out most meat but do still eat a small amount of turkey and chicken here and there. John Salley taught me a lot about the vegetarian and vegan lifestyle and I took lots of mental notes! I also felt great after not eating meat for 30 days, so I figured something must be right!

Does she realize how great she’ll feel after cutting all meat from her diet?

C’mon Torrie, we know you can do it!

Think of it as a challenge competition to smoke Sanjaya.

UK Film Premiere: Ano Una - Arrivals

Hilarious!

Chrissie Hynde is normally quite calm, but still opinionated when sharing her views on vegetarianism and animals.

We think all the excitement from one of her recent performance made her a little less inhibited.

In Toronto, Chrissie grabbed the mic and yelled:

“Meat eaters, go [expletive]yourselves.”

Fiona Morrow at theglobeandmail.com wanted to keep her column clean.

You can fill in the blank as to what you think Chrissie said.

Poor Chrissie had to say something after she smelled something coming from the barbecue stand.

Wonder why she didn’t just ban meat like she’s done before?
