Vegetarian Star

Usher is giving some advice to Justin Bieber as one successful R & B act to another.

He thinks it’s time for the teenage crooner to adopt a plant-based diet and go vegan.

“He’s desperate to get Bieber on the same health kick he is and thinks with all the touring and busy schedule he has, it would keep him energised,” a source said.

“Usher is really close to Bieber so he’s pushing the importance of eating healthy on him and it’s something he takes really serious.”

“I’ve always dabbled in healthy options,” Foster said. “I just kind of felt like it was the most healthy option for me.”

In response to some of the criticism he’s received on his decision, Foster said, “I think it’s funny, like nobody cared what I was eating last year and now everybody’s interested.”

He said he feels his diet has aided him in the ability to recover from injuries.

The first ever Internet Cat Film Festival was a huge success, drawing a crowd of over 10,000 feline lovers.

Festival Organizer Katie Czarniecki Hill said the idea started out as a joke.

“It is an experiment,” she told the Los Angeles Times. “It will be interesting to see if people think it is silly, or great, or a waste of time. But I like the idea of everyone admitting they like cat videos.”

A total of 79 videos were shown at the Minneapolis event, handpicked from about 10,000 entries.

This year’s winner in the people’s choice award was Henri 2, Paw de Deux, which won the “Golden Kitty” award. Henri 2 spends his moments lamenting the everyday problems cat endure, such as the pains of living with another “idiot” cat that annoys him by begging for cheeseburgers and the fact he’s not paid enough attention. Self-confident and secure with his body image, he pokes fun of humans who fear the bathroom scale.

“When Daniel Bryan first came in a couple of years ago, you saw the evolution of the character. He came in as like the NXT nobody, then gets fired and then comes back as a nerd and as a vegan. The vegan thing came about because Vince hates vegans. Vince would say “how could you not eat steak?” He made vegan into a heel tendency. I always knew Daniel Bryan would get over because once again look at his career path. He had gotten over everywhere he had been. You can make jokes that he wrestled in a bingo hall or a gym, but getting over is getting over whether it’s in front of 200 people or 20,000 people. It’s the same principle. How do I get the crowd on my side either as a heel or a babyface?”

—Chris Jericho, professional Canadian wrestler on the success of Daniel Bryan and the wrestling industry’s trend in relying on newbie wrestlers vs. older and more established ones to fuel a fan following.

Babyfaces always steal the show. Vegan babyface make the crowd come back for more.

Sea Shepherd Captain Paul Watson has experienced the tragic loss of his brother, Stephen Michael Watson, to cancer.

Watson took the time to remember his brother on a recent post online, discussing both his family loyalty and support of Sea Shepherd missions.

“My brother was devoted to Sea Shepherd and for years hosted fundraisers in Toronto and London, Ontario. His eldest son Sean first joined the crew of the Sea Shepherd II when he was fourteen on our drift net campaigns. His youngest daughter Hillary will soon be joining the crew of the Steve Irwin. Stephen himself participated in an important but legal secret mission for Sea Shepherd and was instrumental in its success.”
