Cows And The Earth: A Story Of Kinder Dairy Farming - Book Launch Photocall

Chrissie Hynde posed with these two lovely models in a photo shoot for the book Cows and the Earth: A Story of Kinder Dairy Farming.

The book by Ranchor Prime contains a preface by Chrissie, and details an experiment which ran a dairy farm without slaughtering animals or using fossil fuels.

Chrissie got to fulfill a lifelong dream and milk a cow.

“She said to me, ‘One of the things I’ve always wanted to do before I die is to milk a cow,’ so she spent the day hand-milking cows at the manor,” a source said. “She loved it, she spent the whole day there.”

Wonder if Chrissie also got bovine autographs before the day ended.

Hynde has spoken out against the dairy industry, saying it “turns cows into robots” and uses “grotesque and archaic machinery”.

“We need to reassess our relationship to the natural world,” the singer added.

If experiments like the one described in Cows and the Earth can be applied to more dairy farms, would you consume milk again knowing no animals would be slaughtered?

Gisèle Theriault "The Barber's Daughter" and Alicia Keys

Gisèle Theriault took her passion for crafting jewelry and turned it into a profitable business, The Barber’s Daughter.

It all started when Theriault met Alicia Keys backstage at a concert when she was just starting to operate the business.

Keys liked the jewelry so much, she helped spread the news and not only is Oprah Winfrey wearing her bling, but she has five employees and the same publicist as Keys.

But is the Barber’s Daughter also a vegan daughter?

From macleans.ca:

“A few days before the Black Ball, Theriault sat in the sun-splashed kitchen of her home—a three-storey semi that doubles as the headquarters for her company, the Barber’s Daughter—and served a slice of vegan pumpkin pie and empowering tea.”

Theriault’s collections includes earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings and watches.

Both girls maintain great figures and voices by sticking to the veg diet.

Carrie Underwood interviewed with Chicago Country Radio US 99.5 to discuss her life, her boyfriend, and her new album, Play On.

US 99.5: When was the last time you had a piece of meat?

Carrie: We had a problem like three years ago-I was in the recording studio…We ordered out and I asked the guy if the soup was vegetarian and he said, ‘oh yes, vegetarian, vegetarian’…I got it and there was a piece of chicken in it. But I don’t know if I actually ingested any.

US 99.5: If we could just have a moment of silence for the chicken.

The moment of silence was given.

Have you ever accidentally eaten meat in a pseudo vegetarian dish before?

Katherine Jenkins Goes Dairy Free For Mezzo Soprano Magnificent

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, October 26th, 2009 in Female Singers, Food & Drink.

Katherine Jenkins Takes Helicopter Ride To Promote "Believe" In Wales

Not only does Katherine Jenkins try to stick to a vegetarian diet to keep her energy up for her performances, she also avoid dairy, which she feels reduces the presence of catarrh and mucus, two substances that negatively affect the voice.

Along with alcohol and coffee, some sources rank dairy right up  there with things to avoid consuming before giving your Grammy award winning performance.

The Associated Content put it this way:

“It can feel soothing to your voice to drink a large, cool glass of milk, which makes it all the more perplexing that milk is bad for your singing voice. Milk won’t damage your vocal cords, permanently or otherwise, or restrict your vocal range, unless of course it’s really, really cold. What milk will do is create a thick layer of phlegm that will make you sound disgusting. Any dairy product, in fact, has this effect. If you drink dairy before singing, follow it up with a lot of water to wash out some of the phlegm. In a live setting, you’ll get away with it, although you may not be so lucky in a recording studio.”

If you’re a vocal performer, maybe you and the cows can sing better if you just say “No” to milk.

Katherine Jenkins “Believe” The Vegetarian Rumors

Written by Vegetarian Star on Sunday, October 25th, 2009 in Female Singers, Food & Drink.

Chelsea Flower Show - Press & VIP Preview Day

Katherine Jenkins is releasing a new album, Believe, on October 27 2009 and the mezzo soprano singer is probably ready to dodge the bullet of rumors regarding her off stage personality any minute now.

In the past, some have labeled her demanding and difficult.

“I am definitely not a diva,” she said.

Oh, good. And she’s no assault by cell phone Naomi Campbell either.

“For starters I have never thrown a mobile phone at anyone. It is so not me to do something like that. I would never ever.”

“There is always a grain of truth in things that are written, like me ordering a vegetarian meal. But I’ve been a veggie for three years, so what else would I eat? My mum would sort me out if she thought I was acting up – and give me a good slap.”

Katherine took some heat from vegetarians when she agreed to sing at Harrod’s Department Store, the same store that Leona Lewis turned down to open, because it sells fur.

Beth Ditto‘s band Gossip just released a new album this month, Music For Men, and Beth describes her mates as coming from a punk scene of “striking vegan radicals.”

Does this mean Beth and the boys were trying to run away from the vegans?

Ditto announced several months ago that she became vegetarian.

Wonder if she stuck to her regime.
