Ginnifer Goodwin Funny Farm Sanctuary PSA Outtakes (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 in Food & Drink, Videos.

Ginnifer Goodwin is starring in Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey PSA this year and it took more than one take to get a decent 30 second commercial.

Here are some hilarious Farm “bloopers” with Ginnifer and her cow and turkey co-stars.

“A little bit more ladylike,” Ginnifer advises as a turkey eats apples from a bowl.

Then there’s the cow who takes a break to “lick its ball.”

The DVD series of these would sell more than Girls Gone Wild.

Sinitta X Factor Fountain Studios–Fur Real Or Fur Fake

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 in Fur, Fur Real Or Fur Fake, Reality TV.

The X Factor judge Dannii Minogue and show's mentor Sinitta are seen leaving Fountain Studios in Wembley

Simon Cowell knew Linda McCartney faux sausages had the X Factor.

But if his assistant and X Factor mentor Sinitta is wearing real fur trim, she definitely isn’t a star.

What is with this bizarre looking accessory on her coat, anyway?

Seems as if an animal is crawling around her neck, hoping to pop out any minute to get its 5 minutes of fame on TV.

Of course, Sinitta probably knows the only way to wear a fur is to wear one more artificial than John and Edward’s (aka “Divas of Dublin”) gel preserved hairdos.

Your vote counts.

Is Sinitta keeping her X Factor by faking it?

Or is she fur real?

Jonathan Safran Foer “Eating Animals” Trailer, Dog Kisses (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 in Authors, Books, Videos.

Jonathan Safran Foer‘s trailer for Eating Animals features the very creature Jonathan used to despise–the dog!

“I had a particular lack of enthusiasm for dogs—inspired, in large part, by a related fear that I inherited from my mother, which she inherited from my grandmother,” Jonathan said.

Jonathan discusses french kisses with the dog, dinners with grandma and how his wife’s pregnancy with his first son prompted him to write his latest book in the trailer.

Stella McCartney For GapKids Pop Up Store Event

Stella McCartney will be doing another children’s clothing collection with Gapkids and Baby Gap.

Stella’s second collection will feature Spring items and will debut in March of 2010.

Originally, Stella had decided to do only one collection with Gap.

Best sellers from the Winter collection include the Miller Naval jacket, named after her son, Miller Alasdhair James Willis.

As expected, all items from the Winter collection were free of fur and leather.

Will Stella’s spring collection feature pastel colored sun dresses named after daughter Bailey?

Vanilla Ice Is Vegetarian–Rob Van Winkle Vegetarian

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 in Food & Drink, Male Singers.

Vanilla Ice Performs at Studio 54

In the world of strange, surprising and humorous news, we’re happy to inform you that Vanilla Ice is now a vegetarian.

Vanilla, who’s real name is Rob Van Winkle, sat down at Mom’s Diner in Florida with Miaminewtimes.com to allow the reporter to catch up on his life since Ice Ice Baby.

Although the public may think Van Winkle has lived a pretty uneventful life since his 90s breakout, some pretty exciting moments have taken place like being stalked by Madonna and going vegetarian.

After ordering orange juice, coffee, eggs with extra hot sauce, and hash browns from Mom’s Diner, Van Winkle reminded the waitress “No Meat.”

As for being stalked by Madonna, Van Winkle said, “She’s flying me up to Indiana to the set of her movie [A League of Their Own]. She’s taking my shirt off, putting me in her book. [He’s featured in her coffee-table picture book, Sex.] This is Madonna. I was just some kid. It really fucks with your head.”

Good thing Rob found a great wife named Laura.

Cause everybody knows Madonna is a middle aged fur wearing witch anyway.

Obamas Host Indian Prime Minister Singh At The White House

Barack Obama and Michelle were set to host the very first state dinner banquet for visiting Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

According to the UK Times Online, Singh is an abstemious vegetarian and the menu looks to be accommodating him quite nicely.

Although we were hoping for a total veg (damn those green curry prawns), Prime Minister Singh and the rest of the guest will have plenty of plant based items to choose from.

Check out this menu Ecorazzi posted after the jump… (more…)

Chester Bennington Linkin Park "Ink Not Mink" PETA

Lead vocalist for Linkin Park and Dead By Sunrise Chester Bennington has bared his decorated pecs in an anti fur ad for PETA, Ink Not Mink.

We’d love to know the stories behind all of Chester’s tattoos and he would like fans to know the story behind fur farms and the fur industry.

“Electrocuting animals, skinning them while they’re alive—these are acts of inhumanity. Because it’s out of sight, it’s usually out of mind for most people, and we need to show our respect for … all creatures of this world.”

Watch the video below for more of Chester’s thoughts on animals.

Scot Jones, executive head chef of Chrissie Hynde‘s restaurant, The Vegiterranean, said the word “vegan” never appeared in his culinary classes.

Just goes to show you don’t learn everything you need in school, because now Jones teaches Thanksgiving cooking classes for vegans.

“I love Thanksgiving,” Jones said. “It’s the harvest month. You have such wonderful harvest. Squash, different nuts are coming into season, things of that nature — things that are great, like fresh cranberry.”

“If you concentrate on a side dish, and pack it full of flavor, you don’t miss the animal protein,” Jones said.

Jones taught his students to make dishes such as vegetable pot pie with tofu, raw honey cheesecake bars, and wild green salad with a tofu ricotta cheese.

This Thanksgiving, Jones plans to make a sweet potato, leek, soy mozzarella and thyme au gratin.

What’s on your menu for veggie Thanksgiving?
