Vegetarian Star

The sole vegan face of Big Brother, Sunshine Martyn, was recently given the boot from the house.

Too bad, as she served as a great lesson in the joys and pitfalls the lifestyle can bring, such as when she broke the stereotype by revealing she hated tofu and found it difficult at first to get the items she wanted to eat.

Of course, her carnivorous housemates discussed how easier it would be to shop for food with her departure, hinting it may have been a reason for her eviction.

Sunshine thought her exit was because she refused to share her stash of vegan items with her hungry house mates.

“Because I didn’t share my crisps until the day after,” she said.

That’s right, Sunshine. They were just hungry and jealous. Mmm…what flavor were those crisps again?

Gary Conklin, owner of Conklin Dairy Farm, the Ohio based farm where Billy Joe Gregg, Jr. was caught on camera beating a cow and poking it with a pitchfork by animal rights group Mercy for Animals, will not be charged with any criminal activity involving the incident with one of his employees.

This cleared the way for him to talk to ABN, Ohio’s Voice for Agriculture, about the incident, the employee charged with several counts of cruelty, and its impact on business and his family.

Justin Gaston Ben Elliot PETA "If I Can Dream"

Well, well, well.

Miley Cyrus‘ controversial Vanity Fair photos are nothing compared to her ex boyfriend Justin Gaston‘s latest photo shoot with Ben Elliot to promote People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and the television series that follows aspiring musicians on their way to fame, If I Can Dream.

PETA people are known for nakedness, so it’s easy to figure out the idea here is either vegetarian, stop wearing fur, etc., but beyond that, it’s not really clear which campaign these guys, along with model Giglianne Braga, are promoting, other than bedroom freakiness. More nakedness down below (ha, ha great pervert pun).

Gordon Ramsay joked he would put his kid on a fence and electrocute him if he went vegetarian. Now another celebrity chef with a taste for both fine food and foul mouth has shared how he would react if his daughter went meatless.

Anthony Bourdain told the Miami New Times he will cope with the situation by making her smell pork every day. Lovely.

“I’ll say, “It’s a phase! It’s a phase!” I will live with it. I will love my daughter. But I will cook bacon around her every day.”

Bourdain had better get ready to grab the faux ham instead, because according to the LA Times, his daughter is a good candidate for going veg 10 years from now.

Nicole Richie is one of the greenest celebrity moms out there, known for being super-strict about buying organic products for the family, eating less meat, and composting. It’s no surprise she’s one of a slew of celebrities backing the Healthy School Meals Act, a bill that would provide regular vegetarian and dairy-free beverage options to more schools.

Richie and her partner, Joel Madden, recently opened a Los Angeles garden for school children and suggests this is yet another way government can give schools the kick they need to churn out healthy, intelligent adults.

“It’s wonderful to teach children about good nutrition and show them how to grow vegetables, but it’s even more important to ensure that they actually have an opportunity to eat these healthier foods on a daily basis.”
