Vanity Fair And Dior Host Kimberly Brooks' The Stylist Project Exhibition

Biggest Loser coach Bob Harper has Tweeted some words of encouragement for those looking to improve their diet and health.

Bob wants you and everyone else to sign up for the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine’s 21 Day Kickstart Program.

This month’s celebrity tip is from Ginnifer Goodwin, and she’s offering one of her favorite recipes containing Gardein faux chicken and bok choy.

It’s completely free of any meat and dairy, including Ginnifer’s former vice–cheese.

“For most of my life I lived on cheeseburgers, macaroni and cheese, and pizza,” Ginnifer says on the site.

“I just KNEW that “I absolutely, positively could never give up cheese.” Not only was I absolutely, positively wrong about myself, but now two of my four parents have gone vegan. They see the impact a plant-based diet has had on my life and want to live more healthfully and happily, too.”

Ginnifer is a champion for converting two of her parents to veganism.

Can’t wait to see her convert all the parents on Big Love to a meat and dairy free diet as well.

Calvin Klein Collection & LAND's 1st Annual Celebration For ALAC

Ginnifer Goodwin appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live where she discussed how her diet is a lot different from what she ate growing up.

Goodwin said she used to work in a barbecue restaurant in her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee and although she can still remember the smell, something she nicknamed “Eau de Memphis,” these days she prefers barbecue sauce on tofu instead of ribs.

Kimmel joked that was the reason Goodwin had to leave Memphis.

Of course, any Memphis vegetarian knows there’s no shortage of good tasting meatless food in the south!

Goodwin starred in Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey PSA and told Kimmel she was the  Turkey Ambassatrist.

Sounds like an exciting job to have!

Poker champ Daniel Negreanu was asked by a fan how to impress a lady with a good vegetarian meal.

Negreanu admits it’s usually his assistant who creates meatless miracles in the kitchen, but he did have a few suggestions.

Negreanu said start off with a caprese salad with tofu mozzarella.

Then for the real meal, he suggested seitan skewers with grilled vegetables.

Finally, for dessert, Negreanu recommended soy yogurt parfait with strawberries and granola.

If this guy isn’t currently accepting marriage proposals, he should be!

Pamela Anderson Banned Ad Looks Really Milky (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010 in Actresses, Food & Drink, Videos.

An advertisement for an Australian based Internet company featuring Pamela Anderson has been banned by Australia’s Advertising Standards Bureau.

The ad features Anderson talking to a male co-worker when suddenly the male co-worker starts to fantasize about Pamela and another woman drenched in milk.

Supervegan questioned Pamela for starring in an ad containing dairy, given the fact she is such an staunch animal rights advocate.

However, Pamela could have requested soy milk or she may very well have a body double.

Take a look and decide for yourself.

Are these two hot women being covered with phytoestrogen juice?

2008 Republican National Convention: Day 3

Mitt Romney may be a secret veg or pescatarian.

According to Page Six, the Governor of Massachusetts was spotted posing for the camera with staff at The Great American Health Bar at 57th Street in New York.

From the menu, the restaurant looks to be nearly vegetarian, serving plant based wraps, soups, pizzas and more, with a few seafood items here and there.

So refreshing to see a politician committed to his people and a good diet.

Walt Disney Pictures & Buena Vista Records Alice in Wonderland Fan Event

Christofer Ingle of Never Shout Never told Artists Direct how the song “Jane Doe” from the band’s latest album, What Is Love was created.

“I was actually sitting in a Santa Monica restaurant, eating with one of my buddies. There was this beautiful waitress, and I didn’t know her name but she served me an awesome veggie burger. I was like, “I’m going to write her a song, I’m going to go back and play it for her and I’m going to win her heart.” So I went back to my beach house and then started writing this crazy song about a girl named “Jane Doe” because I didn’t know the waitress’s name yet. I never ended up playing it for her though. It was really sad that I chickened out.”

Sad that Christofer didn’t get the girl, but at least he got a good meal.

Was the waitress really that hot or did the veggie burger serve as an aphrodisiac?

Growing up as a vegetarian, Olympic medalist Bode Miller and his family often took to the garden for their food needs.

“We grew our own produce.,” Bode said. “It was all organic.”

When Bode grew up, he continued the farmer’s tradition and bought an organic farm in New Hampshire

“I didn’t buy the place with the intention of making millions off it, I just like the idea of having a piece of land that is mine and that I can do whatever I want with as I grow older.”

Gorgeous red ripe tomatoes can be seen in the video below where Bode gives his thoughts about sustainable food and farming.
