Vegetarian Star

Like many politicians who fall down the slippery slope of indiscretion, vice president Joe Biden needs to keep his wiener (s) to himself.

PETA agrees, and after seeing Biden pass out hot dogs to returning troops during a taping of Stephen Colbert‘s popular Comedy Central show, The Colbert Report, the animal rights group wrote Biden a letter, suggesting next time he hand out veggie dogs, citing how many Americans are too out of shape to serve their country hat might benefit from a vegetarian diet.  It’s a great idea, but Biden will never be as sexy as those models on Capitol Hill during National Veggie Dog Day.

“One in four Americans between the ages of 17 and 24 [is] too fat for military service, and research shows that vegans are far less likely to suffer from obesity as well as leading killer diseases such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes,” the letter begins.

Lady Gaga Vogue Hommes Japan

Lady Gaga‘s latest publicity stunt is to get down and dirty with raw meat on the cover on September’s Vogue Hommes Japan.

Ingrid Newkirk, president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, has to say.

“Oh, Lady Gaga’s job is to do outlandish things, and this certainly qualifies as outlandish because meat is something you want to avoid putting on or in your body.”

Hugh Jackman is one confusing vegan wannabe/chicken eater.

Jackman wrote a foreword to one of vegan triathlete Brendan Brazier‘s books that contained the line, “there’s every chance that I will be a vegan by the time you read…”–crediting veganism for helping him put on lean muscle before filming X Men Origins:Wolverine in 2009.

Fast forward to today, Jackman’s reps confirm he is not a vegan.

However, what’s even more confusing is that at a press conference for the movie, Jackman emphasized that his ripped body had nothing to do with pea and hemp protein.

Awhile back the Daily Mail published a story on how Brad Pitt was disgusted by Angelina Jolie‘s meat-a-day habit and wanted the children to stop eating so much steak. Sure, it sounded like a tabloid rumor, but now Starpulse has published a quote from Jolie on how she used to be a vegan.

“I joke that a big juicy steak is my beauty secret,” Jolie said. “But seriously, I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time, and it nearly killed me. I found I was not getting enough nutrition.”

This must be her secret to retiring early, cause red meat as a prophylactic will do nothing but send her screen career down the tubes if she’s unlucky enough to be stricken with illness. More studies are linking red and processed meats with cancer more often than actors and actresses hook up and break up.

If the land of veggies is giving you problems in nutrition land, we’ve said it before, now we’ll scream it again.

Rip Esselstyn

Rip Esselstyn got a congratulatory package from the Texas Beef Council after his book that describes the vegan diet that allowed the firefighters at his station to lose weight and improve their health, The Engine 2 Diet, became a success.

The Beef Council sent brisket to not only Rip’s house, but every fire house in Austin, Texas.

Some people have no manners, you know?

“At first I was pissed, but then I thought, This is amazing, because it shows how worried they are; it shows that they recognize that people’s consciousness is changing and that this is something for them to worry about,” Rip said. “I thought, Wow, how ballsy of them!”

The author and firefighter has an interview with Supervegan about tofu, vegan cheese, his partnership with Whole Foods and more.

You’ve heard of those “I’m a vegetarian, but sometimes I eat” insert random meat product on occasion excuses. But KT Tunstall‘s revelation to a crowd in Stornaway in Scotland reveals she has vampire tendencies for pigs, as she enjoys the taste of black pudding, a dish made by cooking blood or dried animal blood until it is thick enough to be congealed.

Kristy Lee Cook has already drawn the ire of PETA after news that she’s starring in a new hunting show called Goin’ Country. The former American Idol finalist fired back–this time with words and not a rifle.

“Instead of angering thousands of would-be fans by killing helpless animals on camera in attempt to get her ’15 Minutes of Shame,’ Kristy Lee Cook’s fame crusade would be better served by following in the footsteps of fellow Idol alum-turned-country-stars Carrie Underwood and Kellie Pickler—as well as Simon Cowell—all of whom have used their fame and talent to speak up for animals,” said a spokesperson from PETA.

Cook isn’t taking the criticism sitting down and has responded by claiming hunters do more for conservation than any other group.

Katy Perry wants her next album to smell like meat and her breasts smelling like bacon.

“For my next album I’d like it to be about meat and I want to be on the cover wearing a bacon bikini. Also I want my records to smell of sausage or pork. CDs are over, but not if they smell original.”
