Vegetarian Star

Ben Harper makes us wanna steal some kisses from him.

Harper was in New York for Fashion Week recently showing his new clothing line with actor David Arquette, Propr.

Harper and Arquette were discussing the logo for Propr’s clothing line-three owls-over food and Harper decided to pass on the beer and burgers and opt for vegetarian chili instead.

Rumors have circulated that Ben is a vegetarian, but not much in confirmation.

As for why Arquette and Harper chose three owls?

“Owls have a great mythology, they’re mystical, they’re mysterious — and no one had claimed the owl,” Arquette said. “Except for Hooters.”

“We’re taking the owl back,” Harper said.

Eating lean veggie chili will help anyone look better in owls-even a Hooters girl.

Chris DeCinque, front man for the rising Australian band Closure In Moscow sat down with Vegnews.com to discuss his thoughts on being vegan, including the most important question every vegetarian should be able to answer.

Tofu or seitan?

Chris chose seitan, along with soy milk over rice and and vegan sesame prawn toast.

“Back home in Australia you can’t go past vegan sesame prawn toast—to die for. It’s basically deep-fried batter stuffed with “prawn” filling and a layer of sesame seeds on top, cut into the shape of toast. Simple, but amazing.”

Wonder if fellow Australian vegan musician Missy Higgins snacks on that during her home visits?

There is life after Vegemite down under.

Yesterday we learned that Wheeler’s Vegan Ice cream had its share of celebrity followings, including Erykah Badu and other hip hop stars.

Last week, Mos Def and Talib Kweli performed at the House of Blues in Boston and enjoyed some frozen vegan treats, courtesy of Wheeler’s backstage.

Plenty of Platinum Patron Apple Cider, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Swirl, Mexican Chocolate, Cucumber Vanilla and Mango ice cream were available to the performers.

Platinum Patron Apple Cider? Let’s not forget the Dom Perignon flavor with gold flakes.

Does chef Wheeler del Torro have an imagination or what?

The event will be featured in Wheeler’s next book, a followup to The Vegan Scoop.

Radiohead‘s Thom Yorke is set to play a live version of the song Reckoner at an undisclosed location on September 21 after the screenings of Age of Stupid take place.

Age of Stupid is a climate change awareness film where a man wakes up in the year 2055 and wonders why the heck no one did anything about climate changes years ago.

Cause it’s like, really, really bad then.

Thom knows not eating meat is a great way to combat climate change, even though when he originally became vegetarian, he just wanted to look cool for some chick, according to animalaid.org.

“A list of things I guess… first thing was Meat is Murder [a song by legendary band The Smiths]. The second thing was getting sick all the time every time I ate meat – getting sick a lot… and the third thing was I started going out with this girl and I wanted to impress her so I pretended I’d been vegetarian all along… and I immediately felt a lot better, a lot healthier. I was concerned, as many people are, about that ‘you’re not going to get all the things you need in your diet, you’re going to get sick all the time’, but the exact opposite happened to me, so I never looked back. It was never a problem straight off.”

Ah, men.

See the power you have, veg ladies?

Speaking of hip hop music that Natalie Portman enjoys…She’s sure to like this one cause it talks about not eating meat.

Remember when we told you about Method Man‘s song Dis Iz 4 All My Smokers that has the vegan reference to it?

Here’s a little video and the song.

The vegan verse begins around minute 2:20.

Catchy song, but hey, all that smoke can’t be good for you, regardless of your vegetarian diet. Chill, Method.

Warning: This post gets somewhat graphic. But it’s also hilarious.

In a chat with Jake Gyllenhaal for Interview magazine, vegetarian Natalie Portman revealed she liked listening to dirty hip hop music.

“Really, really obscene hip-hop. I love it so much. It makes me laugh and then it makes me want to dance. Those are like my two favorite things, so combined … I’ve been listening a lot lately to ‘Wait (The Whisper Song)’ by the Ying Yang Twins, where the lyrics are like, ‘Wait ’til you see my dick’—which is just amazing because it’s whispered. [whispers] ‘Wait ’til you see my dick … ’ [laughs] Crazy. So I just listen to it like I’m a five-year-old, like, ‘Oh my god! I can’t believe he just said that!’”

Ghostface Killah of Wu Tang Clan, also a vegetarian heard of this and now is certain he and Natalie should make music together!

“When I read that, it was, like, ‘Oh, [bleep], she would love the [bleep] I got right here on this album!’ It was wild, ‘cause I remember her as the little girl in The Professional, and now she’s all about the wild [bleep].” Killah adds, “Yo, if you see her, give her my number. Tell her we gotta make some music together.”

A collaboration like this could get interesting.

At least the two will able to agree on snack food in the studio.

Jason Mraz is known in the veg community for being a vegan, right?

So a recent interview with austin360.com, has left us scratching our heads, crinkling our eyebrows, and saying, “Huh?”

Read for yourself.

“Well, I’d call myself a vegan fishitarian who’s mostly a raw foodist. It’s a totally personal thing. In my case, it’s from touring so much. Everything in my life changed after I tried eating raw food for 30 days the first time – my mind, my physical appearance, my energy. I realized that food really is my fuel. Once I started to commit to whole foods and natural foods, I was like, “This is great!””

We wish these fish eating vegetarians would just call themselves pescatarians.

And how long has the Mr. Mraz been doing this while we’ve been dropping the name “vegan,” without offering any, “but he eats” behind it?

Or does “fishitarian” mean Jason goes fishing then throws the flippers back into the water?

Confused. Bewildered. Guess we’ll have to make some chocomole dessert and think about it for awhile.

“I actually really like those vegetarian Boca Burgers. Lately I’ve been finding myself sprawled out on my front lawn with my shirt off listening to the pleasant, friendly hiss and crackle of a couple vegetarian patties sizzling away on the gas grill. Pure bliss.”

—-Owl City, a band that consists of one member, Adam Young, on his favorite vegetarian food.

A one man show means more Boca Burgers for yourself after the performance.

Nothing wrong with that at all.
