Vegetarian Star

For everyone who couldn’t get enough of senior citizen Bret Michaels trying to act like it’s the 80s again in Rock of Love, here’s your chance to watch the female version of it.

Daisy de la Hoya, contestant on “Rock of Love 2”, has her own reality TV show on Vh1, Daisy of Love, where men will line up drooling over her goodies.

One contestant, Brian Magee of Syracuse, is already getting his 15 minutes of fame before even moving into the house this spring to win a chance to love on darling Daisy.

When he spoke to BuddyTV, he said he thinks being vegan and straight-edge sets him apart from the other guys. Then, again, he’s not that worried about standing out because Daisy could be a dingy. A real hot dingy.

“I don’t know. I don’t know her and she doesn’t know me. She could be the coolest person I’ve ever met or I might not be able to stand anything she says.”

He is hoping their shared love of music could bring them together.

Even though his diet and lifestyle might single him out, underneath that he’s just like any other guy, he insists. Especially any other reality TV guy.

“I’ve always been outrageous, out of control, loud and obnoxious. All the things that you expect from someone on reality TV.”

“And especially, especially, don`t f*ck with vegans. Do not look vegans in the eye. If you get into an argument with a vegan, say “I`m wrong”, and run away as fast as you can. Do not f*ck with vegans because they will f*ck you up… BECAUSE THEY`RE HUNGRY.”

Ha, haaaaa, Cho! Looks like Margaret thinks vegans are starving themselves, eating only sprouts and drinking  juice all day.

Someone send her the top veggie restaurant list, will ya. Let her know what’s really on our plates. And tell her we’re not hungry. She’ll believe it. Then run away from you really fast.

While being with child makes some women start eating things they normally wouldn’t, Carnie Wilson is giving up something instead-red meat.

The singer who most people associate as one third of the 90s band trio Wilson Phillips, said on The Bonnie Hunt Show, “I don’t eat red meat anymore. Now I am just a cheese freak because of the pregnancy. I can’t stop with the cheese. And bagels.”

She’s also know for her ups and down weightwise, being public about her gastric bypass surgery a decade ago and has appeared on Celebrity Fit Club.

To get healthier, she did lose 50 pounds before the pregnancy, but nowadays she’s just trying to have fun and eat healthy versus obsessive restriction.

“I feel like the word ‘diet’ is not a great word because we know that diets don’t work. I say [to daughter Lola], ‘Let’s just eat healthy. This is good for you. Let’s just eat more of the healthy stuff.’ ”

Kudos to Carnie for realizing “the healthy stuff” isn’t red meat.

Add another celebrity who likes strange sounding food to the list. Professional skateboarder Danny Garcia is into Squash Blossom Pizza.

“It’s like the flowers from a squash plant,” Garcia told ES Footwear, speaking of the pie he ate at chef Mario Batali’s restaurant. “On top of the pizza with the cheese and stuff. They are kinda sweet. It was good.”

He started off being vegan for a couple of months, then decided it was too hard. Now he sticks to pescetarianism.

“It just turned into a habit where I do not want or crave red meat now. I don’t even think about it. I’m looking at a menu or making food, it’s not even on my mind. It’s pretty much habitual now.”

Which makes you wonder why his favorite Food Network Show is Bobby Flay, king of putting every animal on the grill, with the occasional plant here and there.

Apu, the Kwik-E-Mart owner on the Simpsons, may sell tofu dogs in his store, but it’s still not enough to get his shop put on the Proggy Awards list of best convenience stores by PETA that are vegetarian friendly.

7-Elevens in Philadelphia will satisfy all your gas station buffet desires with veggie sandwiches- seitan steak, falafel, faux chicken, and tofu-egg. The stores also offer a variety of salads.

“While it is increasingly simple to find vegetarian offerings at many stores and restaurants, 7-Eleven is making it even easier for conscientious consumers to grab a bite on the go,” stated on PETA’s website.

View the list for the rest of the winners in the awards, including congressman Dennis Kucinich.

Kanye West recently announced in the February Issue of Vibe Magazine that he’s interested in posing naked because it breaks the rules and ideas of what people think hip hoppers do.

We suggest he get naked for the organization that everybody gets naked for: PETA.

He said that if other celebrities posed naked, like singer Bjork, there would be little heads turned because that’s what expected of those in that genre.

“If she [Bjork] wanted to pose naked, you’d be like, ‘Oh, that’s Björk.’ But if I wanted to pose naked, people would draw all type of things into it. I definitely feel like, in the next however many years, if I work out for two months, that I’ll pose naked. I break every rule and mentality of hip-hop, of black culture, of American culture.”

Yep, Kanye could swear off wearing animals and show his buns like he’s always wanted. Not to mention the fact that he’d be breaking more stereotypes as usually women take off their clothes for PETA.

Possible Ad Slogan: Only Golddiggers Wear Fur. I’d Rather Go Naked Than Date One.

Chrissie Hynde doubted there was good vegan/vegetarian food in jail and she just may be right. Guitarist Ira Black of heavy metal band Lizzy Borden has been jailed for failing to pay a fine and now is on a hunger strike because he says the correction facility has no vegan or vegetarian food, according to Classic Rock Magazine. 

“Ira has been a vegan for 15 years and it seems none of the local correctional facilities will accommodate any inmate with a vegetarian or vegan diet,” his fiancee said. “They will give inmates with medical problems or religious beliefs a different meal, but there is no concern for the vegetarians/vegans. He feels very strongly about this and has gone on a ‘hunger strike’ until his release later this month to show how serious this should be taken. The situation has been escalating hour by hour.”

“If I can just get the word out so that people will start calling the jail, there can be some changes made,” Black said.

“I want people to know how legitimate and sincere veganism and vegetarianism is and this is a serious human-rights issue, I’m not just trying to manipulate the system.”

He said his requests have been responded to with punishments and threats, such as making him remove the “Hunger Strike” sign around his neck and the deputies telling him to “just go with the system.”

Alanis Morissette isn’t the only celebrity to make headlines for turning vegan and losing weight.

N.O.R.E., also known as Noreaga, part of the hip-hop dual Capone-n-Noreaga, has been blogging about his dwindling body numbers and has lost 60 pounds on his vegan diet.

The rapper, whose real name is Victor Santiago Jr., started an intense workout last September as part of a weight loss competition with Busta Rhymes.

Along with documenting his success, he’s even changed the name of his blogs to reflect his new lifestyle.

“We are switching it up from the Hang Hang Hood Chicken blogs, to the Hang Hang Hood Vegan blogs. Same N.O.R.E., same hood talk,” he said.

In addition to changing his eating habits, he’s given up drinking as well.
