Vegetarian Star

“I’m vegetarian at the moment. I have been vegan in the past but I’ve found it a bit too hard with all the travelling I do. It is possible if your heart is really in it and you have a lot of discipline but I was just spending way too much time trying to find places that could serve me something vegan.”

—Missy Higgins, on her wavering plant-based diet. Not only is it hard to find vegan food on the road, it’s much easier to find Tim Tams. Higgins explained the chocolate covered desserts “might be half the reason why I find it so hard to be vegan!”

March 11 marked the start of Be Cruelty-Free Week, a celebration of the European Union’s decision to ban the marketing and sale of cosmetics newly tested on animals.

Several celebrities have voiced their approval of the ban, and have signed the Humane Society of the United States and the Human Society International Be Cruelty-Free Pledge.

Award winning singer-songwriter and vegetarian Colbie Caillat said:

“Everyone wants to look their best. And it’s great to know we can look and feel beautiful without causing pain to animals. The HSUS/HSI’s Be Cruelty-Free campaign is urging companies to stop testing their products on animals. There are so many great products, from skin care products, to shampoo, to makeup, that are cruelty free–there’s just no reason to buy anything else.”

“I guess it’s the daily routine. I don’t have any particular thing I do ritualistically. I do the same thing every day. I get up. Drink a lot of water. Have a wheatgrass shot. Drink some green juice. Eat as healthy as I can. I’m not trying to win an award for being the best vegetarian, just want to be healthy. Take a salt bath. Do things that my parents were never able to do. I’m blessed to do anything I want so I decide to take the best care of my body and my family in the same way. Holistically. Vitally.”

—Erykah Badu, in an interview with Huffington Post, when asked how she kept herself “centered” and “grounded” when her schedule lends to anything but.  Badu has been using greens and grains to keep her center and every other part of her body healthy since the late 90s.
