Vegetarian Star

Helen Flanagan was seen walking around Granada Studios in Manchester recently.

Helen plays Rosie Webster on Coronation Street, the longest running and most watched soap opera on British television.

If you’ve ever watched soap operas, you might get a laugh here and there, because, although entertaining, let’s face it-some of that acting is incredibly fake (not to mention you could have children and grandchildren before one storyline is complete).

Which is why we hope Helen was faking when she wore this furry jacket.

Animals have “One Life To Live” and they really should live it out to the fullest and not be skinned and killed prematurely for a coat.

Take a look and tell us what you think.

Is Helen fur real or fur fake?

Bette Midler‘s New York Restoration Project (NYRP) was set to open the Target Bronx Community Garden today.

The NYRP is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing and revitalizing parks, community gardens and public space in New York City.

The Target Bronx Community Garden connects the already existing Anderson Community Garden with the adjoining Woodycrest Community Garden to create an even bigger multi-use space.

“Once again we are thrilled with the work that Target and Sean Conway have done to make this garden a vital part of the neighborhood,” said Bette Midler, Founder of NYRP. “We applaud the ongoing commitment that Target has to underserved communities. Like NYRP, they recognize that each time they help create a beautiful oasis in a neighborhood, they invest in the future of the whole city.”

From Looktothestars.org:

Combining two adjacent properties provided the unique opportunity to create one large multi-functional open space not often found in urban neighborhoods. From the entrance at Woodycrest Avenue, garden visitors will pass through a small grove of trees which commemorate the lives of those lost in a tragic neighborhood fire in 2007. Next visitors will enter into a large open area which contains a large grass space for celebrations and gatherings, an outdoor kitchen where visitors can prepare meals al fresco, an elevated wooden sundeck, newly planted fruit trees and a berry patch, as well as raised open plots for community vegetable gardening. A third feature of the garden is the renovated rock outcropping which highlights the rugged natural beauty of this Bronx neighborhood. The elevated slope faces the community’s public elementary school on Anderson Avenue and will provide a welcoming invitation for neighborhood children to explore the outdoors in their own back yard.

Green space brightens any neighborhood and encourages people to get out and get healthy.

Hats off to Bette and the NYRP!

No, Alcohol for Sustainable Living doesn’t mean ensuring the wine bar is stocked throughout your college days.

It’s the way of thinking that we can use ethanol for a variety of purposes-from powering cars to heating homes.

Veggie stars Daryl Hannah and Ed Begley Jr. were present at the recent Alcohol For Sustainable Living Press Conference in LA, where both talked about their views on using ethanol as fuel for vehicles.

“I’m a big fan of non-petroleum ways of moving ourselves around,” Hannah said, “including electric cars running on renewable energy and biofuels, which is why I was a cofounder of the Sustainable Biodiesel Alliance.”

Hannah showed off the 6.6-liter Trans-Am from Kill Bill, which she converted to alcohol with David Blume‘s, who wrote Alcohol can be a Gas, help.

According to Blume, driving your own drunken Kill Bill (but not driving drunk, as that’s irresponsible and dangerous) with E85 ethanol could eliminate the need for oil dependency in a few years.

Christina Applegate visited Kansas City in the Power & Light district, in celebration of Lee Jeans’ National Denim Day, the company’s biggest all day fundraiser for breast cancer.

Applegate, a breast cancer survivor herself, helped unfurl a check with 10 other survivors she called her “sisters in boobs” for $4.5 million.

Kansas City is nicknamed “cowtown” and a reporter for kansascity.com asked the vegetarian Applegate if she could live in such a town that’s famous for barbecue and steaks.

“I don’t know. Probably. I’ve lived in a big city, I’ve lived in the mountains,” Applegate said.

Q: But you wouldn’t eat the cows.

A: I would love them and protect them.

Q:…So I guess we don’t appeal to you on those grounds (eating barbecue and steak).

A:Not necessarily on that front, but the people are very kind. And it looks like a nice little city. And I can play “Kansas City” on the guitar.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, btw. If you haven’t touched a tit yet, now’s a great time to get started.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus is doing everything she can to green the set of The New Adventures of Old Christine.

“Every light bulb is a compact fluorescent,” Julia told Mother Nature Network. “We have a big recycling program. We tried to get rid of water bottles last year and failed at it. It’s a tricky thing to do with a crew, but we’re going to try it again this year.”

Julia is an environmentalist who is active with the NRDC and the Environmental Media Association, and serves on the boards of Heal the Bay and Heal the Ocean.

But Julia hasn’t made one important move to protect the environment-she hasn’t yet gone vegetarian.

“I love vegetables— I should be a vegetarian, and I feel guilty saying I’m not,” Julia told Shape. “But I like meat and chicken.”

We’ve already give Julia the how to eat like a carnivore by shopping in the faux meat section lecture, so we’ll just suggest one final thing: Why not make the set of Old Christine greener by implementing a meat-free day of the week?

Mayim Bialik wrote a bit of advice to a lost soul wondering what next step to take in their career.

“Lost In Space” got some great inspiration from Mayim, and a suggestion that if they were interested in taking the food industry on, there was a demand near her.

“If you find that your passion is vegan kosher organic cuisine, that dream is attainable too (and seriously needed in my neighborhood)!”

Mayim, in addition to being a successful actress and obtaining a PhD in Neuroscience, may be the next Dear Abby or Ann Landers.

Just listen to this additional piece of advice she gave “Lost In Space.”

1). Make a list of things you enjoy doing/skills you have.

2) Make a list of things you do NOT enjoy doing/are not cut out for. (Don’t be excessively self-critical; that’s what the rest of the year is for. Just be descriptive.)

3) Make a list of the things you could see doing that would make you excited to go to work and happy to be part of.

4) Make a list of the crazy jobs you never thought were within your reach, and don’t hold back; it’s just a list, it won’t bite.

Hmmm…Is Mayim taking clients for one on one therapy?

Much ado about Pamela Anderson‘s eco friendly clothing line A*Muse has taken place, but what makes Pamela’s swimsuits and shoes more environmentally sound than others?

“We’ve got organic cottons and the boots we’re going to be doing are made out of recycled bottles,” Anderson revealed. “A company called Ultrasuede has this great fabric they make out of recycled bottles which we are going to use.”

Cool!

It’s great to learn something new everyday, and Pamela agrees.

“Every day you learn something new about the world around us,” she says. “I just learned about the mountain of plastic in the ocean. I mean that’s just disgusting. So, if you’re going to do something, do it right – be it choosing the right fabrics or where you are going to get things manufactured.”

“If you put the thought into it at the beginning instead of trying to fix it at the end… instead of having a problem that you have to fix why not do it right in the first place. With A*Muse we want to inspire people to think about it but not to be too preachy, we’re going to have fun with it. Like go vegetarian – we’re doing it anyway so why not incorporate it into it the range?”

A*Muse debuted last week at Air New Zealand Fashion Week.

It’s not yet known where the clothing line will be distributed.
