Vegetarian Star

There’s nothing more uncomfortable for the rest of the friends and family than when bachelor Cassanova invites the girl he met two nights ago to a wedding or family reunion.

On a recent episode of How I Met Your Mother, titled “Say Cheese,” Josh Radnor‘s character, Ted Mosby, is painfully reminded by Lily (Alyson Hannigan) that he has a tendency to bring wacky girlfriends to important events.

Specifically, Lily doesn’t want any more random skanks in the group photos and she forces Ted to take a trip down “Random Skank Lane.”

One random skank was a vegetarian hippie girl named Strawberry who threw red paint on the chef at the dinner table and yelled, “Meat is Murder,” when Marshall (Jason Segel) passed the bar exam.

Strawberry had good intentions.

Words of wisdom for a potential date if you might not yet be promoted from the ranks of random skanks.

Kindly say “I’m a vegetarian,” and be prepared to politely answer any questions about your lifestyle without belittling anyone or staining their shirt.

If you’re a health conscious cinema fan, it’s tough going to the theatre these days.

Just when you’ve devised the perfect scheme to sneak your tofu jerky, soy milk and veggies in, the cap falls off your tightly sealed wrapped container, leaving you smothered with ranch dip.

A Sony executive wants to change that and says although he’s not here to spoil the tradition of popcorn and candy at the big screen, he’d like to see healthier options on the menu too.

Sony Pictures CEO Michael Lynton said, “I don’t mean to close the window for popcorn, soda and candy. Audiences love them and should always be able to buy them at your theaters.” Lynton added that “bringing healthier snacks into your concession stands, you would be helping our country meet an urgent public health need.”

Lynton suggested theatres offer veggie and dip, fruit cups and granola.

Sony conducted a survey of 26 theatres and found that 42% of parents would spend more at the concession stands if healthier items were available.

Corey Haim has passed away at the age of 38.

According to the New York Times, he was pronounced dead at 2:15 AM Wednesday after collapsing at his mother’s Los Angeles apartment of an apparent drug overdose.

A famous teen idol, Haim was trying to make a comeback and expressed interest in several movies with producer Tim Vogel, including one romantic comedy titled The Vegetarian Hunter.

“He was interested in playing the lead role,” Vogel said.

Vh1 also says that Vogel added:

“We had sent him a script, and he loved it. He wanted to shoot that. We were going to do it in upstate New York. Basically, it’s about a hunter who goes to New York, falls head-over-heels for a girl he meets who is vegetarian, he becomes vegetarian, and she does good things to animals that backfire. It’s a romantic comedy.”

This year, Woody Harrelson represented the vegetarian actors in the Oscar nominations and over the past years, there have been several meatless celebrities nominated and awarded for their performances on screen.

Forest Whitaker won in the category of Best Actor for The Last King of Scotland (2006) and Diane Keaton won for Best Actress in Annie Hall (1977).

Some celebrities deserve an award for perserving through all the loses, like Kate Winslet.

Says VegNews:

“Although it may have taken six nominations before finally winning that golden statue, Kate Winslet’s vegetarian lifestyle must have given her the energy to continually tackle challenging roles and complex characters.”

Kate was nominated for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Sense and Sensibility, Best Actress in Titanic, Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Iris, Best Actress in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Best Actress in Little Children, before she won for Best Actress in The Reader.
