Vegetarian Star

It’s no secret vegan musician Nellie McKay likes junk food, from calling herself a “junkatarian” to her theory that more vegan junk food would convert people to veganism. In this video from her Uncensored Interview set, she lists her favorite restaurants, which, ironically, don’t sound as if they’re serving junk at all. Veggie Paradise 2, the veggie burger at Better Burger, and even the Chipotle Burritos are on her fave list.

Frank Iero isn’t the only vegan musician who can strut around in his vegan MacBeth shoes.

Missy Higgins did an interview with MVids where she wore hers too. If you don’t know about how Missy makes her tours carbon neutral, you should watch below. At least have a look at her shoes!

Time magazine has declared 44th President elect Barack Obama as its 2008 Person of the Year. With the impact he’s made on election history, he’s probably deserving of it.

However, singer and “X Factor” winner Leona Lewis, has taken the crown in another, perhaps less known, person of the year contest held by the UK division of People for The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

“Leona Lewis is admired for her beautiful voice, but it’s her kindness to animals that makes her a superstar in our book,” said PETA Europe Director Robbie LeBlanc.

Leona, a strict vegetarian since she was 12 years old, refuses to even wear animal products, such as fur and leather shoes. She’s so passionate about this, she’s talking with various suppliers to design her own line of vegan shoes and bags.

She made quite a statement earlier this year, turning down over a million dollars by refusing to sing at a Harrod’s department store seasonal sale opening because the store sold fur products.

The “Bleeding Love,” star is joining the hall of fame with other vegetarian celebrities, including last year’s winner,  fashion designer Stella McCartney, the daughter of ex-Beatles Paul McCartney.

Congratulations, Leona! We look forward to learning how you’ll be leading vegetarians in the upcoming year.

Ah, the female vegan rocker edition!

They both love vegan food and rock and roll. Granted, Chrissie has an advantage, since she can have her chefs whip up something gourmet and vegan at her restaurant and all. So who would you…

The end of the year marks the making of lots of lists-resolutions, top or greatest events or people, and trends to look for in the upcoming year.

Carrie Underwood made PETA’s list for what’s “in” for 2009, and is obviously a stark contrast to her opposite of what is “out”, “Jessica Simpson.

Sure, they may both be beautiful blond babes who sing their hearts out, but as a vegetarian since her teens, Carrie’s got it going on where it counts.

Both have been considered, “sexy,” but Miss Underwood has won the title of Sexiest Vegetarian Alive. Still, waiting for Simpson to be crowned “Sexiest Carnivore.”

Lastly, Carrie definitely makes better judgement in fashion. We suspect Pamela Anderson will never leave Jessica alone for wearing her Real Girls Eat Meat t-shirt.

Congrats to Carrie. Better luck next time Jess.

Read the entire list to see who and what made the cut.

Country music star Emmylou Harris extends her activism for animals far beyond her plate.

She runs a dog shelter in her native state of Tennessee and performed at a Best Friends For Animal Society event designed to raise money to help four legged creatures in all sorts of ways, including getting them adopted.

Now, she’s teaming up with PETA to remind everyone to get their pet spayed and neutered and invite them in your home instead of keeping them chained outside.

You can listen to Emmylou’s radio PSA if you’d like, and be reminded that for some of us, respect for animals goes beyond deciding not to put them in our mouths.

For 15 years, singer-songwriter Lisa Loeb thought she was allergic to corn. Turns out she wasn’t and she wanted to celebrate. So she ate a corn dog at the Texas State Fair-minus the hot dog, according to Dallas News.

The vegetarian best known for her hit song in 1994, “Stay,” is getting married soon, but is not naming the lucky guy.

She’s a Texas native, and she dressed up as Sarah Palin for Halloween, but her views don’t mirror those of the party in which the current President who shares the same state as her stomping grounds belongs. Her fiance went as Joe the Plumber!

While it’s great Lisa knows she can eat corn, we just can’t help but wonder if she could have celebrated with something other than a hotdogless corndog, which probably resembled a mere hush puppy. Like maybe corn on the cob? Seems similar to ordering a Big Mac at McDonald’s with just bread and toppings.

But who are we to argue with a Brown University graduate?

Katy Perry attended the Z100 Jingle Ball in Madison Square Garden in New York City where she announced what she wanted her New Year’s resolution to be:

“I try to want to be a vegetarian cause I know it would be more of a healthier option for me. But I love chicken. I think I am just gonna try and be a healthier person and ya know think about my family more.”

It’s great for Katy to think about her family more, but does this gal who’s One Of The Boys know she can do both, even if she likes chicken?

Someone’s gotta inform Katy about Boca breaded Chik’n Patties or Lightlife’s Smart Strips Chik’n Style Strips. If she’s looking for something a little more titillating, Quorn’s Naked Chik’n Cutlets make a meal sound even more exciting than kissing a girl or boy!

PETA’s been known to send fake meat to celebrities in dire need of it. Maybe they’ll put Miss Perry on their not so secret Santa list this holiday.
