Jimmy Fallon Going Back To The Vegetarian Roots

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, December 26th, 2008 in Bands, Male Musicians, Male Singers.

38th Annual NAACP Image Awards - Show

Actor and comedian Jimmy Fallon will be replacing Late Night host Conan O’Brien next spring on March 2nd, and he’s picked The Roots to be his house band.

Scratch, Rahzel, Black Thought, ?uestlove, Hub, and Malik B. all once recorded a video advocating vegetarianism. The band has been through some changes, Black Thought and ?uestlove are the only great men remaining who appeared in that video and it’s not certain whether other band members are vegetarian, but The Roots has generally been thought of, as a veg band.

Incidentally, Kevin Eubanks, a musician on Jay Leno’s Tonight Show, is also a vegetarian, and was voted the sexiest male vegetarian in 2007.

Break out the hummus and pita chips. Late night TV just keeps getting veggier.

Rocker Bryan Adams Exposes His Refrigerator To Rachael Ray

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008 in Food & Drink, Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Peace One Day - Stage Performances

Bryan Adams exposed himself to Rachael Ray. Geez, we thought he was a gentleman.

Actually, he still is. He just opened his refrigerator to the celebrity chef for her Everyday with Rachael Ray magazine in the December/January 2009 issue, where you’ll also find his favorite Pineapple-Ginger juice recipe, which he drinks every morning.

His fridge is obviously stocked similar to what we told you was in his shopping cart, such as wholesome vegan foods like medjool dates.

Those who follow him know he’s been a vegan for 20 years and he even switched to a completely raw diet for awhile, which he claims during that time he never got sick.

“I didn’t even have a headache—it was unbelievable,” he said. “So now I still try to eat raw about 50 percent of the time.”

So take that, Bijou Phillips, who recently said she was going back to Atkins to lose weight and being a vegan made her sick all the time.

Adams has a self-portrait in front of his fridge-probably to remind him of how gorgeous his body looks so he’ll keep eating vegan.

Read his interview with Rachael Ray, and hear how he’d love to invite her over for a 30 Minute Meal of cheeseless rigatoni pasta with pesto sauce.

Moby Proves Even Douche Bags Get 45 Words Of Fame

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, December 19th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

The Fifth Annual Art Party Celebrating The Whitney Museum Of American Art

Grab your urban dictionaries, boys and girls. The word for the day is douche bag. And how do you define it? Douche bag= An unattractive or offensive person. Also known as any character vegan singer Moby plays on film.

While discussing his character in the upcoming vampire horror/comedy Suck, he mentioned that he manages to get the same types of roles in movies: the role of the ugly nuisance.

“I’m making a specialty of playing douche bags,” he told Rolling Stone. “I could spend the rest of my career perfecting the douche bag. It’s the journey not the destination.”

He also played a douche bag, as a porn addict in Pittsburgh. It’s never type casting, of course.

The vegan musician’s character “Beef Ballow,” gets only 45 words to say in the film and is assaulted with rubber latex meat while dripping in fake blood made from raspberry syrup. Raspberry syrup… Mmmm, yummy. Makes you suddenly want to be the vampire that sucks on him.

The costume attire was created with him in mind, since he’s vegan and wouldn’t be down with any real USDA approved meat on him. Even his trench coat is synthetic leather.

“I only have 45 words,” Moby said. “But they are 45 important words. Then I get eaten.”

Will Anthony Kiedis Get Duped By Docs?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, December 17th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Anthony Kiedis Hosts American Eagle Outfitters' New American Music Union

Anthony Kiedis experienced some real “Scar Tissue,” this past summer. His kidneys almost failed him and there was even talk of needing a transplant as he made repeat visits to Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment, according to E! Online.

“Anthony’s health was pretty bleak,” a source said. “Organ failure was a possibility.”

The Red Hot Chili Peppers singer is doing better, but with all the celebrities who don’t eat meat having doctors telling them biting into a burger will ease their maladies lately, it makes you wonder? In the midst of Anthony’s health situation, do you think he’ll have at least one doc telling him, “A chicken wing a day keeps the doctor (and further kidney problems) away?”

Years of drugs and alcohol abuse did the damage, but Kiedis has come a long way to clean up his act, turning vegan almost a decade ago, on the advice of one smart doc. He even took up yoga!

Incidentally, Anthony hired his own personal vegan chef, Laura Dakin this past summer as well. It’s possible he knew he would need to watch his nutrition even more carefully since learning of his liver problems, so he hired Laura to help him out.

What do you guys think? Will Anthony stay on the straight veg course? Did he hire Laura because he knew he needed the best vegan super food in such a time of dire need? Chime in and let us know your thoughts!

Jason Mraz Shies From Revealing Choco Avocado Masterpiece

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, December 16th, 2008 in Food & Drink, Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Hard Rock Calling Festival 2008 Day 1

If you’ve been keeping up with the news we bring you (and you should), you know that Jason Mraz switched to a raw foods vegan diet last Spring and is a homegrown avocado farmer.

He’s talked about his love for avocado before and mentioned it briefly with E!Online. When asked if he was an avocado expert, he replied:

“I like to think so. I certainly know how to choose them in a grocery store.”

Oh, Jason, Jason, Jason! You do so much more than choose the right ones in the grocery store.

Mraz has created his very own Chocomole, a chocolate mousse made with avocado.

Trying to be humble?

When he doesn’t have an avocado sweet tooth, Jason likes to cut them in half and sprinkle lemon juice on them before gobbling up.

Read the rest of Jason’s story with E! Online.

Paul McCartney On Dalai Lama Doctors: They’re Just Wrong!

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 15th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Celebs at Stella McCartney Fashion Show - Paris

Mere regular celebrities may fall prey to the medical industry telling them meat is necessary for health, but His Holiness?

The Dalai Lama was vegetarian once, but on the advice of doctors, decided to start eating meat. He has been criticized for this by some, including Paul McCartney.

In Prospect Magazine, Paul reveals he wrote to His Holiness after the Dalai Lama stated, “As Buddhists we believe in not causing any suffering to any sentient beings.”

Paul replied to this by saying, “Forgive me for pointing this out, but if you eat animals then there is some suffering somewhere along the line.”

It was then revealed by the Dalai Lama that he was simply following doctors’ orders.

“He replied saying that his doctors had told him he needed it, so I wrote back saying they were wrong.”

Morrissey Ready To Eat His, Um, You Know

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, December 13th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Morrissey Plays Alexandra Palace

Gossip has been taking place over the internet for some time about the 80s English Rock band The Smiths reforming for a reunion. But Morrissey has in the past denied having a happily ever after renewal of vows with Johnny Marr and the others.

“I’d rather eat my own testicles than reform The Smiths – and that’s saying something coming from a vegetarian,” he was once quoted as saying.

Wonder if he likes barbecue or sweet and sour with those jewels?

Before we gross you out even more with our junior high school humor, we should tell you that a source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper:

“The very fact they are talking again is the most hopeful thing in years. The industry has been buoyant with talk of them getting back together.

“A lot of people think of them as the best thing since The Beatles. They’d fill stadiums many times over.”

Reforming could be a good thing for Morrissey, who is so strict about his diet he even prohibits his employees from eating meat while on tour.

There’s power in numbers. With Johnny and and his entire band backing him up singing Meat Is Murder, Morrissey might get his wish to have the beef and pork selling food booths turned into tofu kabob ones.

Share Inc's 52nd Annual Boomtown Party - Inside

Michael Bolton was seen having dinner with his band and crew at Positano Coast restaurant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Unlike some tabloids have incorrectly printed, we can assure you he wasn’t eating lobster.

Bolton had frisee salad, eggplant parmesan, and spaghetti marinara. When his belly was full, unlike Andre 3000 Benjamin, he tipped well.

Since most of his crew is probably not vegetarian, wonder if it grosses him out to watch them eat when he’s out with them?

While dating “Desperate Housewives” star Nicollette Sheridan, a source said he tried to get her to stop eating meat and that it “grossed him out” to watch her eat lamb chops.

Of course, with the band it might be different. He’s not kissing them after dinner.
