Vegetarian Star

When this gal says natural, she really means it.

Erykah Badu made a statement not long ago that her children are being raised as organic vegans and she prefers natural births.

That means no drugs, folks.

Erykah is so serious about letting everyone know she’s natural, she and parter Jay Electronica blogged about it DURING THE CHILDBIRTH! Jay wrote:

“Labor has begun. Everybody standback. No hospitals. No doctors. No medicine. Were waiting on midwife to show up. I’m doing foot squeezes and foot rubs when the contractions hit…Ok… The midwife is here now and a few family members. Feels like a scene from the color purple. She’s dialated to 8 1/2 centimeters. Getting closer. She says she feels like she’s ready to push. Feb 1. 2009 my first child, my daughter was born at 1:30 pm exactly. Its the happiest day of my life.”

Congrats to the happy couple. Welcome to world vegan baby!

Congratulations to Life on Mars actress Lisa Bonet! She recently gave birth to baby boy, Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa.

Yes, he’ll have to put a few more hours into kindergarten homework to master how to spell that. Unless he just goes by Wolf.

The actress is 40, but you’d never be able to tell from looking at her. Not to mention she used fantastic cougar skills to grab herself a 29 year old man!

No doubt her vegetarian lifestyle has kept her looking good since her “Cosby Show” days, so we’re wondering if baby Wolf will be reared veg as well.

We’ve seen some celebrities insist on a strict vegan diet, only giving in when a divorce court forces them to. Then there’s Diane Keaton, who claims she wouldn’t want to force it on her children.

It’s poll time. What do you guys think? Will Lisa only have meat free baby food for her newest bundle of joy?

Bristol Palin, the daughter of the infamous former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, is one of the latest victims of PETA.

Well, depending on how you look at it, she may or may not be, as it looks as though they’ve given some cute, innocent gifts to her and her newborn, Tripp.

A few months ago, Sarah made a statement to someone in the media (media appearances always get her into trouble, just take a look) that she and husband Todd “never met an animal they didn’t like – to eat or shoot.”

This obviously rubbed PETA the wrong way and besides throwing snowballs at Sarah, they responded to the Palin predicament by sending daughter Bristol these “gifts.” You could call it a “PETA baby shower.”

Bristol’s late Christmas presents include a baby outfit that reads, “Gives Peas A Chance”, Ingrid Newkirk’s 50 Awesome Ways Kids Can Help Animals, and her latest One Can Make A Difference book as well.

Oh, and we can’t forget the nice letter recommending Bristol and Tripp stop eating the wolves her mother shoots from the sky and go vegetarian.

Some say PETA has gone too far and that Bristol is an innocent teenage girl who’s never publicly made statements similar to her mother and shouldn’t be targeted as such.

Then again, you could call it PETA just doing its job.

He wanted more vegetables for the children and now it looks like his daughter will be helping to carry out his wish for the entire Washington D.C. area.

Sasha Obama, Barack’s youngest daughter, is attending Sidwell Friends School in D.C. where part of the children’s education is to teach them about helping those less fortunate.

One such program is making soup for Martha’s Table, which according to their website, is designed to “help at-risk children, youth, families and individuals in our community improve their lives by providing educational programs, food, clothing, and enrichment opportunities.”

Sasha will be bringing fresh veggies to school which will be used to make soup that will be delivered to Martha’s Table.

From the Sidwell Friends website:

Each Wednesday, children bring a vegetable from home as their contribution to the makings of a 50 lb. pot of soup. Classes take turns collecting and cutting the vegetables, which are then delivered to Martha’s Table by a parent volunteer. The children are reminded to bring their Wednesday vegetable by painting a magnetic tile to take home to place on their refrigerators.

Shortly after the Madonna-Guy Ritchie split, we learned that Madge set forth some pretty strict rules about what the children could and could not do while visiting Guy, including only eating organic, vegetarian, macrobiotic food.

Now Guy is paying her back, but it might be the children who are suffering in the process.

As part of the deal for getting to crash at Guy’s UK mansion he previously banned her from, she must behave-no temper tantrums or bullying the staff. Fair enough. But she also must allow the children to eat a “traditional” Christmas dinner of ham and turkey!

For a parent who’s been insisting on organic, vegetarian food, this has to be her worst nightmare. Not to mention the possible physical reactions that might happen to the children when eating greasy pig and bird after months of eating wholesome, organic vegetarian food.

Not to worry, though. Madonna is already planning her next move. As soon as she arrived in the UK, a source said the first thing she did was met with her divorce lawyer.

It’s probably safe to say this Christmas dinner deal will be annulled by next year.

Children and vegetables don’t always mix. But celebrities and vegetables do.

Joanne Rose is an Australian born actress who has made several appearances on the American big screen, including “CSI: New York”.

She is also one of the original lettuce ladies of PETA and has authored several books, including a children’s book, Tommy Tofu Saves the Day.

Tommy Tofu and several friends, including Polly Potato, Casey Carrot, Zachary Zucchini and Lucy Lettuce help teach kids why veganism is important. And even if you and your child aren’t vegan, they still do a lot to emphasize the importance of fruits and vegetables.

The book has received praise from noteworthy celebrities, including Skinny Bitch author Rory Freedman, who thought it was “adorable, educational, and fun.” Ed Begley Jr. said it was “creative and educational at the same time,” and a “must have for every child.”

If you’re interested in ordering to book and learning more about what Joanne has to offer, visit her website.

The saddest part of a divorce is how it will affect the children. Looks like Madonna wants to enforce some pretty strict rules about what the children will be doing when they visit ex-hubby Guy Ritchie. Some rules are not bad. But we just hope it doesn’t make it hard for the little ones to enjoy a weekend with dad.

The best rule is that the children must be fed a vegetarian, macrobiotic, organic diet. And absolutely no fast food.

Things get a little cloudy as you move further down the list, however. For example, toys must be “spiritually and ethically sound.” Let us know when you figure out a way to explain that.

Obviously he shouldn’t talk about the breakup (another rule set forth by the Material Girl), but any bedtime story other than one from Madge’s English Rose books for son David is another violation.

When out in public, their hands should be disinfected with disinfectant spray, although it doesn’t say how often.

Clothing must be from natural materials only.

This is eerily reminiscent of how vegan Heather Mills gave an eight page list of rules and demands for her daughter Bea’s food regime when she went on a vacation with Mills’ ex-husband Paul McCartney.

What do you think? Is Madonna just trying to do what she feels is best for the kids or has she turned into a control freak?

I bet years ago when you listened to 98 Degrees, you never imagined them singing, “Beans, beans, the magical fruit. The more you eat, the more you toot.” Hey, maybe if they covered that song, more albums would’ve been sold. Ha!

Now Drew Lachey has embarked on another solo project-this one involving getting kids and their parents to become more aware of healthy eating. It all started when the “Dancing With The Stars” winner noticed his 2 1/2 year old daughter, Isabella, is quite picky about eating vegetables. “She wants to eat (veggies), sometimes she doesn’t, (and) sometimes we have to sneak them in.”

That led him to start the Magical Veggie Challenge in which kids can rewrite the, “Beans, beans, the magical fruit,” song. The only requirements are that the songs be 1 minute in length and include the words “beans” and “veggie.” The winner will be crowned in New York City next year in February. Watch the video below and hear Drew explain how fatherhood, (to the tune of “The Hardest Thing” everyone) is the “hardest thing he’ll ever have to do.”
