James Cromwell became vegetarian after playing the pig in the movie Babe. Paul currently has too many pigs around his home, according to his neighbors. But you won’t be eating pig, regardless of who you choose…

Is Paul McCartney Giving The Boo To Cull Wild Boar?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, December 10th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

The McCartney And Mills Hearing Continues Into Day Three

This little piggy came to Paul’s house. This little piggy called it home. Boars like the Beatles. Or at least, ex-Beatles Paul McCartney.

Dozens of them are running around his 1,500 acre estate in Peasmarsh, East Sussex and those around want Paul to do something about it. But so far, he hasn’t given in and okayed for the population to be controlled.

Those who have problems with the wild boars say they are “breeding like rabbits,” and cause problems for those living in the area, including meddling in their gardens and shrubs.

“Boar are a huge problem for farmers. As with deer, the government has a policy to allow humane culling but Sir Paul is having none of it,” a source told the Sun.

Wild Boars can weigh up to 900lbs.-not your average stray cat eating the flowers in the garden. But surely, there must be a non-lethal way to take care of the problem.

Paul’s spokespeople haven’t gave word on why he isn’t doing anything about it, but given the fact that the vegetarian for decades is such an animal rights activists, he may very well find the current government “policy,” to reduce the numbers inhumane.

Moby Spontaneously Shops For Sexy Food, Not Hookers

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, December 9th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers, Videos.

The Cinema Society & GQ Host Screening Of 'Children Of Men'

Awhile back, we told you where to find an awesome video of Moby giving the tour of his kitchen.

Here’s another video in the Epicurious.com series where Moby talks about how it can be hard to do the vegan thing while on the road. No kidding. Just ask Mark Ruffalo, who is currently winning the Who Would You Poll, by the way.

He does a lot of “spontaneous shopping” since he lives a block or two from several grocery stores and apologizes for mentioning it because “spontaneous shopping,” doesn’t sound nearly as sexy as what a rock star should talk about, like hookers and drugs. Sometimes the best code words are the vegetarian ones.

Kid Rock Ready To Roll With PETA Over His Fur Collection

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 8th, 2008 in Fur, Male Musicians, Male Singers, Not So Vegetarian.

Kid Rock in Liverpool

Kid Rock likes his fur. And he’s sick of PETA telling him he should do otherwise. Apparently, their anti-fur campaigns are fightin’ words.

“I want to go to war with PETA. My biggest extravagance is fur coats – I’ve got every kind of animal in my wardrobe,” he told Britain’s Mail.

We think he not only has every animal in his wardrobe, but his own laboratory as well, where he makes hybrid animals when he runs out of ideas. He loves fur and hunting so much, it’s rumored that’s why he and vegan, PETA supporting Pamela Anderson got divorced.

Now, the musician whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, is begging for some action from the animal rights group, hoping he’ll get a little flour thrown in his face soon. Or at least some red paint.

“I’m just willing the animal rights protesters to chuck some red paint on me. I understand people’s problems with it but to throw paint on someone is just wrong.”

Plus, those poor, helpless, actresses are so defenseless and cannot fight off the big bad PETA wolf.

“They do it to little Hollywood actresses who can’t defend themselves,” he said.

When a celebrity is this brazen against animal rights, PETA usually responds by sending them “a nice letter,” and information on why they should change their ways.

Since they have his ex-wife Pamela working for them, things could get nasty. It’s quite possible her theory of why men hunt was conceived during her relationship with him.

Radiohead Perfom At Victoria Park In London

Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who’s the greenest of them all?

Vegetarianism and environmentalism go hand in hand. You really can’t discuss being eco-friendly without at least talking about reducing meat consumption.

So it’s no surprise that several known vegetarians as well as some rumored vegetarians have popped up on the Coventry Telegraph list of greenest celebrities.

There’s vegan Thom Yorke of Radiohead, who refused to play in Glastonbury earlier this year, because the city had poor public transportation and he and the band felt that was damaging to the environment.

Vegan Alicia Silverstone has long supported PETA, but also has her own organic vegetable garden in the yard of her solar powered home she shares with her husband.

Natalie Portman attempted to make things greener for shoe fashionistas by starting her own vegan shoe line and donating a portion of the profits to charity. Although Te Casan closed shop, she still leads by example, never failing to let the media know she’s vegan, and filmed a video for National Geographic about how replacing regular light bulbs with energy saving light bulbs would have the environmental impact of taking millions of cars off the road.

Read about what the other celebs that made the list, including Brad Pitt, Leonardo Di Caprio, and Jack Johnson are doing at the Coventry Telegraph.

Why Throwing Rubber Meat At Vegan Moby Won’t Suck

Written by Vegetarian Star on Sunday, December 7th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Rosario Dawson hosts The 2008 Willow Awards to benefit the Lower Eastside Girls Club

The horror/comedy film Suck, which vegan musician Moby has a role in, has just completed a few days of filming in Toronto.

As we told you earlier, the story is about a loser band that meets a vampire that while changes their fame and make others lust after them, results in their insatiable lust cravings for blood as well.

Since there is so much blood and guts in the film, you might wonder what kinds of props they’re using. Rest assured, Moby’s not down with being covered in real meat.

Suck’s production crew had fake beef created from latex rubber and foam, then dripped in fake blood.

The latex beef will be thrown at Moby’s character, Beef Ballow, lead singer of a band called Secretaries of Steak. Secretaries of Steak is a rival band to the loser band, The Winners, who’s luck improves after meeting the vampire.

Other stars in the film include Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper, and Henry Rollins.

Who Would You: Mark Ruffalo Or Moby

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008 in Actors, Male Musicians, Male Singers, Polls/Surveys, Who Would You.

Mark Ruffalo is of Italian descent. Moby lives in New York’s Little Italy. Doesn’t matter where you’re eating, though, ’cause “When in Rome…” you can always adapt, unless you only have Shopska Salad to choose from. Most importantly, who would you..

Boo To Wu: Wu-Tang Weather Tech Boot Contains Suede

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008 in Bands, Fashion, Male Musicians, Male Singers, Not So Vegetarian.

Giancarlo Esposito teams with Subaru to debut his new film Gospel Hill at the 2008 Democratic Convention

No thumbs up on this one, RZA.

Most members of the Wu-Tang Clan hip hop group are either vegetarian (RZA, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, Masta Killa) or have been outspoken on animal rights issues in the past (GZA). So when the group collaborated with Fila shoes to produce a shoe with their name branded on it, the Wu-Tang Weather Tech Boot, you’d think it’d be cruelty free as well. No such luck.

Along with it’s “molded rubberized vamp, d-ring lacing system and padded ankle collars,” the Wu-Tang Weather Tech Boot contains an “oiled suede upper.” Boo to the Wu!

So while we were hoping RZA and his boys would follow the steps of other veggie metrosexual men and associate himself with a vegan shoe, like Frank Iero and his MacBeth’s, he’s let us down this time. This is even grosser than his veggie burger with fried egg on waffles.

Thanks Vegblog
