Today in the world of shocking news, a reporter from Celebrity Baby Scoop learns that hamburgers are made from beef, which comes from dead cows.

The blog interviewed Weird Al Yankovic, who’s just published the children’s book we told you he was working on, When I Grow Up.

When asked why he became a vegetarian, Weird Al said, “Many years ago I found out something about hamburgers that really grossed me out. You may not know this, so I hope I don’t make you sick, but it turns out hamburgers are actually made out of dead cows. I am not making this up. Needless to say, as soon as I discovered that, I gave up meat entirely.”

Portia de Rossi has written a book, Unbearable Lightness, which details her struggles with an eating disorder that began in her early teens.

Now a vegan, de Rossi used Unbearable Lightness to discuss how a change in diet was an extension to her spiritual and emotional wellness as thinking about the cruelty of eating animals allowed her to think less selfishly–an emotion that consumed her when she was constantly obsessing over her personal appearance.

“While I have never felt more healthy and energized, the most important thing that happened to me when I stopped eating animals was a sense of connectedness. When I was suffering with an eating disorder, my life was solely about me. I was living through my ego and didn’t care about life around me. I was selfish and angry, and because I didn’t care about myself, I also didn’t care about littering in the street or polluting the environment.”
