Vegetarian Star

Leona Lewis doesn’t like getting buzzed and has branded the idea of people needing to get drunk to have a good time, “ridiculous.”

This was revealed during her interview with In Style UK, where she said she prefers to have a Red Bull instead.

“I don’t drink. I haven’t for years it tastes like hairspray to me – I can have a great time without alcohol. I don’t need that to get me up on the dancefloor, I’m there already. I’ll sometimes have a little Red Bull. That’s my little buzz.”

Non-alcoholic partiers will be happy to know that, unlike many alcoholic drinks, Red Bull contains no animal products or derivatives and is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

According to the website’s FAQ, Red Bull is vegan, Kosher, Halal, wheat-free, gluten-free and dairy free.

And that rumor about the taurine coming from the bull’s testicles?

That’s bulls–t!

“The taurine in Red Bull Energy Drink is a purely synthetic substance produced by pharmaceutical companies and is not derived from animals or animal materials. All ingredients for Red Bull Energy Drink are synthetically produced by pharmaceutical companies. This guarantees the highest quality.”

What a great reason to stay sober!

What do Laura Bell Bundy and Natalie Portman have in common?

They both were involved in the off-broadway show Ruthless! The Musical.

Bundy played the role of Tina Denmark and Portman and Britney Spears were her understudies.

But Bundy and Portman had nothing in common when it came to food, as she told the Huffington Post, “We were actually good friends and had sleepovers. She was a vegetarian at 10 years old and I liked chicken on the bone. So we deferred a little bit in our eating choices, but we were very good friends, and we’d put on pageants and we’d make crank calls and we did all kinds of stuff.”

Any chance of Bundy calling up fellow country music ladies Carrie Underwood and Kellie Pickler and asking them to share a seitan recipe every now and then?

Leona Lewis requested that no one eat meat in her presence when she interviewed with In Style UK for the June 2010 cover shoot.

It was also revealed that the singer is very particular about how her tofu is prepared.

“I don’t think I’m demanding!” she said. “I think it’s okay to ask how you want your food cooked. People just dramatise everything.”

No, the singer insists she still has those sweet girl roots and has never even gotten angry, except for a few times, like when someone kept trying to give her a business card to get her a fur.

She is in the process of designing clothing for her vegetarian fashion line, which she says she hasn’t had a lot of time to focus on, but it’s definitely still scheduled to launch one day.

Leona Lewis "In Style"

Leona Lewis is the cover girl for the June 2010 issue of UK In Style.

Leona told the magazine, “I’m very fiery and very passionate,” adding that she has debated several times with Simon Cowell.

The vegetarian was probably very passionate when she convinced Simon to do Meatless Mondays.

More Leona can be found inside UK In Style, which went on sale today.

Female First has written an article on the “Things You Didn’t Know” about Miley Cyrus.

Ok, so after you admit you don’t care to know, one of the “secrets” is that Miley is “vegetarian, doesn’t eat anything green and her favourite colours are green, pink and purple.”

Green. Of course. That’s why she won’t eat anything that color.

Maybe FF has the latest update, cause last time we checked, Miley said she had tried being vegetarian, but couldn’t get enough of the Double Doubles and fries.

Maybe the recent change is from playing her vegetarian character, Ronnie, in The Last Song.

Then again, maybe it was that Hannah Montana personality that didn’t eat meat.

Carrie Underwood and fiance Mike Fisher have ditched the traditional wedding cake and opted to be sweet tooth locavores and serve cupcakes made by a bakery near her hometown instead.

The rest of the reception menu has been decided on as well, as Carrie told Ellen DeGeneres, “We pick out food, and we know where we’re going to be. The big hurdles, but everything else we’re easy about…We don’t care.”

Because Carrie’s a vegetarian, she’s sure to have plenty of meat free options besides cupcakes.

If you’re in need of a vegan cupcake (along with sugar and gluten free), BabyCakes bakery has you covered East Coast or West.

The bakery that originated in New York City and now with a shop in LA, offers cupcakes, cookies, brownies and now even donuts that are completely free of animal products.

BabyCakes’ owner, Erin McKenna, started the company because she had multiple sensitivities to foods like wheat.

Being a personal chef for celebrities sure has its perks, primarily in the form of good pay and entertaining stories.

The New York Post has written an article on some of the more outrageous requests personal chefs have taken from the likes of Hollywood, including fresh brewed coffee used not for drinking but for an enema.

Still, there are stars who’s demands make perfect sense, as they’re not for outrageously narcissistic purposes but to maintain good health on the road, thus avoiding the constipation that requires the decaf enema.

Madonna, for example, has asked her chefs to make twig tea and support her macrobiotic diet which consist of 50 percent whole grains.

Both Paul McCartney and Peter Frampton are strict vegetarians, and when Paul’s private chef can’t do it all himself, he drafts the hotel staff into vegetarian cooking duty.

Michael Jackson would request fruit juice, granola and almond milk for breakfast every morning.

The vegetarian  requests sound pretty normal, not far from what any ordinary non meat eater might encounter when traveling.

Leona Lewis is a new spokesperson for the Fabric of Our Lives campaign, which promotes the natural fiber, something Leona says is a great alternative to animal fabrics.

“I love fashion and I’m always finding alternative ways to non-animal products. Cotton is a great fabric,” Leona told Showbiz Spy.

Organic cotton should be your top choice if possible.

Treehugger reports that, “Conventional cotton is one of the most chemically-dependent crops, sucking up 10 percent of all agricultural chemicals and 25 percent of insecticides on 3 percent of our arable land; that’s more than any other crop per unit.”

This translates into needing up to 1/3 pound of chemicals to produce enough cotton for a t-shirt and 3/4 pound for a pair of jeans.

Plus, The World Health Organization says that up to 20,000 deaths occur each year from from pesticide poisoning in developing countries, where cotton is often still picked by hand.

There’s organic cotton for every budget, from retail brands like Nike and Patogonia to upscale labels like Loomstate and Katherine Hamnett.
