Vegetarian Star

Colbie Caillat has collaborated with the Humane Society of the United States to educate her fans about the uncomfortable conditions dogs endure in puppy mills, encouraging her fans to rescue and adopt instead of buy.

Caillat has recorded radio announcements that will be played this week, which happens to be Puppy Mill Action Week. The timing of the annoucements was meant to correspond during Mother’s Day weekend to remind people female dogs in mills have some of the worst Mother’s Days in the world because they are forced to reside in cramped cages, suffering physical and pyschological abuse.

Living in the home with a mixed eater who refuses to touch your vegetarian cookbooks because he thinks they’ll turn him into a granola hippie?

Being the two celebrities who’ve published vegetarian and vegan friendly cookbooks, who would you rather…

“One of the reasons I wanted to do this cookbook is that after I was diagnosed with breast cancer five years ago, I changed the way I was eating because I wanted to have a pro-active part in my recovery, as well as my sustaining health and Chuck knew so much about it.”

–Sheryl Crow, on her new cookbook, If It Makes You Healthy, which she co-wrote with her personal chef, Chuck White. The cookbook happens to be vegetarian and vegan friendly. Inside, you’ll find recipes that call for soy crumbles and quinoa for protein, as well as vegan chocolate desserts. If you’re an omnivore who picked up the book thinking “healthy” meant lower fat cheese and leaner meats, don’t be afraid to try to veghead recipes. It just might be your Favorite Cooking Mistake.

If it makes you healthy. It can’t be that bad.

Actually, it’s not bad at all. It’s very good, because many of Sheryl Crow‘s 125 recipes in her new cookbook, If It Makes You Healthy, are vegan friendly.

“I think when you say you’re vegetarian, it hits a button in people. Somewhere deep inside them, they go ‘Ooh. That makes me feel weird. I have to think about what I’m eating. That’s hard!’ But vegetarians can be painfully self-righteous. I’ve been a vegetarian for 30 years and I’ve certainly gone through militant phases where Chrissie Hynde and I have been like, ‘Fuck you, meat eaters!”

–k.d. Lang, on how she’s gotten a little nicer about being a vegetarian over the years. Of course, many people, especially in her hometown where cattle is king, haven’t always been nice to her.

The last time we wrote about a singer crooning about veganism, it was Nora Jones who ultimately made the right decision because she chose an animal over some not so good man characters in her life–even if one was a vegan.

Poly Styrene, known for being the leader of the 1970s British punk rock group X-Ray Spex is back with a new album, Generation Indigo, and the vegetarian created a few friendly lyrics in ode to vegan shoes.

Listen for “I Luv Ur Sneakers” when the album hits the shelves in April.
