Vegetarian Star

James Cromwell recently attended a screening of Fuel, a film about America’s dependency on oil and the need for alternative energy sources.

The Green Girls caught up with James during the screening to ask what lifestyle changes he had made to go “green.”

“I made a lifestyle change in 1975 when I became a vegetarian, and in ’94 when I became a vegan,” Cromwell said.

“If everybody would do that, we’d save a lot of water, a lot of land use, a lot wasted energy bringing protein to people through animals, a lot of suffering and a lot of greenhouse gases.”

“If people [would] just [cut out meat for] one meal a week, and then one day a week, and then maybe one week a year, they could make an incredible difference.”

Cromwell showed his humorous side when asked if he went “cold turkey” in going vegetarian.

“I went the whole hog,” he joked.

Cromwell sees going vegetarian as a “choice” rather than a “decision” because when you make decisions, it becomes an either/or situation and you “leave things out that are important,” rather than educating yourself on what makes a balanced veg diet and how to incorporate different foods into it.

Watch the video to hear the rest of the interview with James.

Warning: there is a creepy flashback of the early 90s Wayne’s World movie when The Green Girls play their musical slogan at the end of the video.

One of our favorite veggie couples, Heroes’ stars Milo Ventimiglia and Hayden Panettiere has called it quits.

Our fantasies of them raising little veg babies who grew up and took tofu sandwiches to school for lunch have been crushed. At least for now.

The breakup was amicable and a source told US Magazine that it was a “lifestyle conflict.” Hayden was too young (yes, it was a creepy reverse Demi Moore/Ashton Kutcher fling) and liked the club scene, while Milo, as we already know, would just rather stay in and make a home cooked meal.

There is a 12 year age difference between them, Hayden 19 and Milo 31.

“Not vegan yet, i eat cheese made from my own milk, however i am farmed inhumanely and shall report myself to the UN at dawn.”
—comedian Russell Brand in response to a question on his Twitter if he was a vegan. Salma Hayek has been making headlines about breastfeeding babies that aren’t hers-maybe Russell is stocking up on the breast pumps for an entrepreneurial adventure?

We’d like to look more into this “farmed inhumanely” situation. Russell doesn’t seem to be the type you should keep caged…Or should you?

Russell’s Twitter, rustyrockets, is becoming quite popular, gaining 2,000 followers in the first 20 minutes when it launched last month.

Poor, poor, pitiful Chris Evans.

The actor who is currently staring in Push (the same movie where the vegetarian director wanted to blow up fishes) says he became vegetarian on the advice of his ex-girlfriend (then current, of course) and it turned him the color of veggies-green.

“I was just getting even thinner than I am now,” Evans said.

“I had a hard time putting on weight, and some of my friends said I was getting green. I’m incredibly pale anyway. I don’t know what was missing, but they all said I had a greenish hue.”

“Finally, I was, like, ‘Hamburger, please.’ ”

Maybe if he had said, “nutritionist, please,” he wouldn’t have won an Academy Award for best actor as Kermit the frog.

Many people who experience negative effects from going vegetarian do so because they aren’t eating enough or eating properly. It takes more than three grilled cheese sandwiches a day, Chris. Evans didn’t mention what he ate during his stint.

The actor has also had roles in Not Another Teen Movie, Cellular, Street Kings, Human Torch, and Fantastic Four films.

We already told you what watching TV on a Saturday night can bring on (like a horrible parody of Joaquin Phoenix rapping and selling hamburgers), so you’d think we’d learn. But no.

The Dave Chappelle Show, which ran from 2003-2006 on Comedy Central, is syndicated on various television networks.

Dave’s not a known vegetarian, but even an omnivore can go to extremes. Like in this part fantasy, part reality skit where Dave invites you into his home while he cooks dinosaur egg.

The show starts off with Dave opening the door, wearing a reversible coat made of “panda fur” and “snakeskin.”

Upon entering, we see chicken bones hanging from the ceiling.

The final blow comes when Dave removes a dinosaur egg from his refrigerator and starts to scramble it. Remembering he has yet another egg left, he retrieves that one as well, but the dinosaur is starting to hatch before he can crack the egg and cook it. As the baby dinosaur peeks his head out of the egg, Dave excitedly shouts that life is happening right before he takes a pair of cutters and snaps off its head. Nice.

Don’t even get us started on his eating animal penis for a mock episode of “Fear Factor.”

You might find his “Jedi Sex Scandal” video a little funnier.

Celebrities may have tons of money in the bank, but some of them aren’t using it to hire a good wardrobe coordinator, especially a compassionate coordinator.

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher currently top the worst dressed list for PETA, in a contest that’s running through March 2nd.

“She may be a cougar, but that’s not helping fur-loving Demi Moore in the eyes of animal lovers,” PETA said in a statement to Access Hollywood.

Demi is the first fur lady, while her husband Ashton comes in second because he was spotted “skulking around Sundance last month wearing a gigantic coat made of coyote fur.”

The competition, which awards the dishonor to celebs who sport every animal in the forest, crowned Aretha Franklin as queen last year with Eva Longoria Parker, Kate Moss, and Lindsay Lohan not far behind her.

If you crawl up buildings like Spiderman to stalk Tobey Maguire, then you should be crawling along Real Food Daily often, as this man never seems to get enough of it.

The actor who’s expecting another baby with his wife Jennifer Meyer this spring was spotted with his daughter, Ruby, and a friend picking up some food from the vegan restaurant.

Looks like Ruby had a ton of fun!

So awesome that little Ruby is getting to experience healthy eating with dad at such a young age. In a world where kids think a Happy Meal is one of the basic food groups, good to know Ruby’s growing up with the good stuff.

Andy Serkis is one of those fish eating vegetarians (thanks to playing Gollum while filming Lord of the Rings in New Zealand), who used to be completely vegetarian, but like Diane Keaton, isn’t forcing the lifestyle on his children.

“We [he and his wife] tried to bring our children up vegetarian and it was fine until they start mixing with other kids and going back to the houses and having hot dogs,” he told Babble.

“Rather than kind of going “You’re not going to eat hot dogs,” we said they can wait until they can make their mind up and let them decide where they want to go. It’s kind of pointless to push them at this point. I know that there are great parents who are very good and manage that side of it well, but that’s not the way it’s gone for us.”

At least he and his wife won’t have to worry about raising any Aisha Tylers.

The actor plays a villain named Capricorn who escapes the fantasy world of storybooks and enters reality in his most recent movie Inkheart.
