Vegetarian Star

Nora Jones "The Fall"

Nora Jones has a new album coming out November 17 2009, The Fall.

Much like we brought you the vegan verses from Method Man‘s Blackout! Vol. 2, we’re excited to inform you Nora has the dilemma of choosing between a pothead or a vegan lover in Man of the Hour.

Though we were rooting for the vegan, we’re not entirely disappointed in the company she chose to keep–her album co star dog!

“It’s him or me/That’s what he said/But I can’t choose between a vegan and a pothead/So I chose you.”

You can never go wrong with a four legged date!

After hearing what Taylor Lautner ate to gain weight for his New Moon role, even vampire blood is starting to sound better.

“Yeah, so I carry around a Baggie and it has meat patties in it,” Lautner told Entertainment Weekly. “The worst is not the patties. It’s the sweet potatoes. They get raw and cold and gushy.”

Taylor’s meat and potatoes habit allowed him to put on 30 pounds, but how many points did he put on his cholesterol?

All the vegetarian and vegan male athletes like Tony Gonzalez, Prince Fielder, Georges Laraque and Brendan Brazier know seitan “wheat” meat or Gardein faux meat and potatoes would keep Taylor buffed and ripped, save a few animals and not significantly add to the carbon emissions dirtying up Mother Earth like meat production does.

You can view Taylor’s “animal” body of steel when New Moon hits theatres November 20.

Unfortunately, the experience won’t be nearly such a turn on for the veggie ladies.

Brigitte Bardot is asking the European Union to institute a Vegetarian Day to help fight global warming.

In a letter to European Commission chief Jose Manuel Barrosoa, Bardot said “a few weeks before the Copenhagen climate summit, I would like to draw your attention to the need to question cattle-farming, whose effects on the environment are of concern.”

Bardot backed her passionate writing with facts from studies conducted by World Bank and the UN Food Agency.

“If ‘developed’ nations were to reduce their meat consumption, there would be less famine, which kills almost six million children each year,” Bardot wrote.

“Our collective duty is to act at all levels, including by promoting a vegetarian diet,” she said

“A European ‘Vegetarian Day’ would be a strong symbol.”

Turning 75 years of age in September, Bardot shows no signs of “retiring” from her mission to save animals, the planet and human health.

You outta know that Alanis Morissette has been following a mostly vegan diet after picking up a copy of Dr. Joel Fuhrman‘s book, Eat To Live.

Alanis recently interviewed with Health Magazine where she discussed her diet habits, including the fact she loves to put a pat of vegan butter on her popcorn.

“I love snacking on popcorn with balsamic vinegar, vegan butter, and all kinds of spices.”

Thank goodness Alanis has grown to enjoy good food, which is a stark contrast from her eating disorder teen years.

“As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic. I was a young woman in the public eye, on the receiving end of a lot of attention, and I was trying to protect myself from men who were using their power in ways I was too young to know how to handle. Disappointment, sadness and pain hit me hard, and I tried to numb those feelings through my relationship with food. For four to six months at a time, I would barely eat. I lived on a diet of Melba toast, carrots, and black coffee,” “I began recovering at 18, when a sweet friend confronted me.”

And like Woody Harrelson, Alanis discovered a vegan diet is acne’s nightmare.

“I rarely eat dairy. I’ll never forget my friend Woody Harrelson telling me I needed to get rid of the dairy in my fridge to clear up my skin. He was right. My skin looks great now.”

You can read Alanis’ full story in the December 2009 issue of Health magazine.

Jane Goodall made an appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart where she discussed chimpanzees, animal rights and pardoned Jon for the occasional cheeseburger.

“You seem to have a very reasonable approach to the animal world and saving the endangered species,” Jon said. “I mentioned to you earlier that I enjoy the occasional cheeseburger and you were okay with that.”

“I’m okay with that,” Jane said.

“Thank you,” Jon joked and elicited loads of laughter from the audience.

Watch the clip to hear Jane discuss how chimps have the same range of emotions as humans do, her thoughts on extremists and how she’s been criticized by vegetarians, even though she is one.

Singer Mya lost 11 pounds after going vegetarian to slim down for Dancing With The Stars.

She’s one of the four celebrities still left on Dancing, but she’s abandoned the practices that got her so healthy and up to par for the competition.

“I am eating more protein now – I used to be a vegetarian!” she told OK! magazine.

Mya claims she’s craving carbohydrates and proteins–and that her meat-free diet was leaving her hanging.

“So I’m eating lots of chicken and beef. I splurge on carbs like mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, rice and gravy, bagels – the list goes on!”

This may make us not vote for Lady Marmalade.

You want carbs, Mya?

We’ve got your carbs!

Complex ones like whole grain pasta, oatmeal, bagels, and lentils.

And if you’re missing your chicken and beef, Chef Tal Ronnen would love to introduce you to the wonderful world of Gardein faux meats he uses so frequently in his cookbook, The Conscious Cook.

Mya may still dance like a 9, but we’re giving her diet performance a 6 today.

Stella McCartney thinks every woman should own 2 pairs of sunglasses, “a classic pair they’ll have forever, and a more playful pair. We’ve added that fun element to the line.”

Stella has launched her collection of eyewear with Luxotticaand at Fireplace Project in East Hampton, New York.

“My mum had this mad pair with Christmas trees on them that I loved when I was little. Sunglasses are one of the only accessories that can really have a sense of humour. But you walk a fine line between looking like a complete idiot and getting it just right.”

Guest like Alasdhair Willis and father Paul McCartney, Gwyneth Paltrow, Naomi Watts and Live Schreiber, enjoyed vegetarian foods like corn and black bean pie, veggie burgers and cookies.

Veggies are great for the vision, as researchers have discovered yellow and green vegetables help prevent eye diseases.

Every woman should have two pairs of sunglasses–and a daily side of broccoli and squash.
