The dress code for the amfAR Inspiration Gala last week at the New York Public Library was black tie/black leather.

New York magazine asked Cyndi Lauper if she followed the code of real or fake leather, to which the 80s pop icon replied, “Oh, fake leather and real leather. You’re always looking to see which one is less hot. Like, temperature hot. I eat meat; I’m not a vegetarian. Do I think animals are treated badly? Yes, and it’s awful. But I do eat it, and I wear real leather.”

Whether it’s 90 degrees or 9, real leather is as old as Lauper’s first MTV video, but thankfully, you don’t have to be stuck in the 80s with so many leather alternatives, as an extensive database listing retail sources for many accessories, including fake leather shoes, guitar straps, computer cases, biking gloves and even sports balls exists.

Zooey Deschanel had a lovely quinoa dish cooked up for her on Top Chef Masters, but the singer and kid sis of Emily Deschanel says she wasn’t a vegan when she ate it, and her multiple food allergies keep her from being one.

From Time Out Chicago:

“Oh, man, that was awesome! Though, a long time before they aired the show, I gave up veganism. I can’t do it. And I’ll tell you why. I have multiple food allergies. That’s kind of why I became a vegan, because I was like, Oh, I’m halfway there. I can’t have eggs or dairy. I can’t have wheat, either. Or soy. It was impossible being vegan.”

No wheat or soy? Can’t imagine a life without tofu or seitan!

A list of alternatives to wheat reveal a popular vegetarian staple, buckwheat noodles, otherwise known as soba noodles, are gluten-free. Then there’s almond milk instead of soy. Unless you have a nut allergy.

Oh, boy, is there hope for wannabe vegans like Zooey?

Daily Muesli anyone?

Miranda Lambert performed at a concert that made two legged people happy and benefited four legged animals.

The country singer was part of the lineup at the third annual “Paws for Cause” concert, combining entertainment with a benefit auction that raised $91,000 dollars to animals affected by the recent floods in the Nashville, Tennessee area, as well as the East Texas Humane Society.

“Since we started working with the Humane Society of East Texas over three years ago, we have donated over $325,000 and they have become a ‘no kill’ shelter,” Lambert said. “Every year it amazes me that people spend their hard-earned money to partner with us in this fight. I am very grateful!”

Erykah Badu "Vibe"

Erykah Badu is burning up the stands, appearing on yet another magazine cover this month.

First, there was the JET issue, and now Vibe features Badu on the June/July 2010 edition.

Inside Badu discusses how both her diet and her family decisions have permanently changed her life.

“I was 27 when I had Seven. I was already a vegetarian. I had been for 10 years. I had started making choices that would shape me for the rest of my life. I never thought to measure by each child. My children are six years apart. It wasn’t planned, just how the relationships rolled out. I’ve had three unorthodox marriages of sorts. I’ve had the benefit of having substantial amount of time with people, mind-building time.”

Victoria Beckham is a diva when it comes to her vegetables.

The former Spice Girl reportedly sends her managers running left and right to satisfy her demands for fresh produce before each and every photo shoot gig.

An example of what Beckham requests from Gossip Center:

“Chopped fresh fruit – cut pineapple with grated lime peel, green seedless grapes, red grapes (frozen), cut-up pear with lemon juice, apples, peeled pink grapefruit, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries. Please DO NOT MIX up the fruit but keep separate.”

The pescatarian is even picky about what store things are purchased from.
