Vegetarian Star

After a drawn out discussion and some investigation, we were saddened to learn that Hayley Williams of Paramore isn’t vegetarian after all.

During a conversation with Rob Pattinson, Hayley appeared as if she genuinely loved Gardenburgers.

But one thing Hayley does love is vegan desserts baked by Danielle Konya and her Vegan Treats crew.

On a recent Twitter, Danielle wrote:

“Tonight we baked for Paramore, No Doubt, and Eddie Vedder, fun!!”

The vegan bakery Danielle owns has baked goodies for several celebrities, including AFI and Alkaline Trio, who’s drummer Derek Grant recently wrote a jingle to express his love for Vegan Treats.

You can check out Vegan Treat’s new website, and follow Danielle’s tweeting @vegantreats.

Denny's All Nighter

All you late night fast food junkies can breathe a sign of relief.

At least there’s one place to visit where you can get some decent vegetarian fare at odd hours in the morning.

A few months ago, we told you, at its own risk, Denny’s restaurant let stars like Good Charlotte twin brothers Benji and Joel Madden into their kitchen to whip up burritos so they could attach a celebrity name to it.

The Denny’s Rock Star Menu #3 is out and features the boys’ creation of a Boca burger burrito with shredded cheese, sliced mushrooms, fire-roasted peppers and onions and spicy mayo. Both are served with tortilla chips and ranch dressing.

This option is available starting next week, but we have some unanswered questions.

Originally, vegetarian and vegan options were suppose to be available. While it’s easy to leave the cheese and mayo off, not every Boca burger is vegan.

Did vegans get ripped off? The only way to find out is to give a holler at the restaurant next week!

Ah, Rhett Miller is such a slacker.

The Old 97s singer was suppose to serve as guest editor for Magnetmagazine.com, but instead let his other famous musician, actor, and artist friends do the job!

But Rhett does have a couple of friends that interest us, particularly, cartoonist Dan Piraro and singer Lisa Loeb.

Piraro is a vegan who often incorporates veg and animal rights themes into his comedy and sketches at bizarro.com. Piraro can’t wait for the newest album by the Airborne Toxic Event.

Lisa Loeb is vegetarian-sorta. Although most sources say she is, she admitted she likes bacon every once in awhile.

Lisa’s a fan of Peanut Butter & Co. “Smooth Operator” creamy peanut butter. The company makes other entertaining flavors like “White Chocolate Wonderful” and “The Heat is On.” The nut butters are no-stir, natural, and contain no trans fat or cholesterol.

You can learn what else Rhett’s super veg friends recommend on the Piraro and Loeb pages.

Who knows? Maybe they’ll recommend Rhett go veg too. Or at least almost there, as in Lisa’s case.

For you Rhett and Old 97 fans, Rhett’s self titled solo album is out this week.

Some fans got together and did a remix of Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours,” from his album, We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things.

Everything’s cool and all except the fact that it’s filmed at MCDONALD’S and features people ordering all SORTS OF NASTY MEAT DISHES!

Of course, raw vegan Jason is cool about it and let’s people know on his Myspace blog, that while he’s not down with McDonald’s, he’s down with people having fun with his song.

“I’ve seen a lot of covers and heard a lot of parodies of “I’m Yours,” but this one is super sized. While I don’t advocate that brand of fast food, I dig what these talented people are doing by taking their art into the real world, being joyous and unafraid to shine their light in random acts, enrolling others in their wonderful state of play. This is life you guys. This is it. There ain’t no dress rehearsal. Order what you want.”

Seriously, people need to make an “I’m Yours,” remix at a vegan restaurant.

Watch the video for yourself.

The drummer of the all vegetarian band Rise Against, Brandon Barnes, sat down for a little one on one chit chat with tomtimms.com where he talked about how easy it is to be veg and gave some thoughts on global warming and Sarah Palin.

This isn’t the first time Brandon has expressed himself on the 2008 vice presidential candidate. She must stir up a world of opinions!

So it was sorta by chance you all were vegetarians and had the same beliefs.
Yeah we all have same politics, not all bands have that dynamic. We’re all veggie and minded on those beliefs.

How is it on the road and finding the grub.
Well the catering is all veggie, restaurants are very accommodating to vegetarians. We can get pasta and veggie burgers. Most major cities now have vegetarian restaurants.

What do you think about Governor Palin talking about the ice glacier’s not melting due to Global Warming.
Yeah I saw the skit with Tina Fey on SNL, one of her lines was “There isn’t global warning, its just god hugging us a little tighter”. Most of the major scientist in the world agree that global warming is the cause, so you can’t really argue against it as its pretty much fact. I think alot of the Republicans wanna believe it’s not. Climate change does go in cycles, however they wanna keep drilling. What happened to the battery operated car, it’s a possibility. There are all these people who own oil and sell oil there keeping things like that from developers as they wanna make more money. Sarah Palin probably does know.

Jason Mraz likes it raw. And ever since he opened up about his chocolate avocado dessert, he’s never stopped talking to the media about his raw vegan diet.

So it comes as no surprise that Jason’s named his latest tour after a chain of raw foods restaurants in San Fransisco, California, Cafe Gratitude.

Cafe Gratitude, the tour, kicks off in July in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

Cafe Gratitude, the menu, offers elixirs, juices, and smoothies, appetizers like raw nachos, and raw soups, salads, pizzas, and veggie burgers.

Iron Maiden’s drummer Nicko McBrain recently did an interview with Heavy Metal Examiner blogger Mark Morton.

Apparently the guys are known for dining on pizza with some weird toppings, and Morton wanted to investigate this.

McBrain likes a vegetarian pizza, but there’s one vegetable he can do without-olives! You can hold that funny looking cheese, too.

And what is with your penchant for nasty looking pizza?
“Oh, no, no, no, no. Let’s get something right, here. I don’t order that stuff. That is just what they order in for me. And believe you me, there was that one friggin’ pizza – I don’t remember where we were – but it had this funny cheese on it. I looked at this pizza like, “What the f*** is that???”

“Normally, I like a vegetarian pizza, no olives….I can’t stand f***in’ olives! Or, just a regular pizza with a Margherita sauce on it, or whatever. And they send all these exotic pizzas out thinking we’re going to like them. And there’s always a big row about it. But yeah, I was known for eating pizza and Gatorade. What can I say? They should have put some of those wars in there; that’s what should have been filmed! Pizzas flying at the band, and flying at Steve Gadd [tour manager]…hahahaha.”
