Gym Class Hero Travis McCoy Wants Dinosaur Burger Last Meal

MTV Europe Music Awards 2008: VIP Arrivals

When lead vocalist of alternative hip-hop group Gym Class Heroes was asked what his last meal on earth would be, he suggested an entree completely different than what he’s used to eating.

“I’ve been a vegetarian for about five years now, so I’d probably just have the biggest, grossest carnivorous meal ever. Maybe like a human leg or a brontosaurus burger.”

A vegetarian for half a decade and suddenly he wants to get cannibalistic? Or visit Jurassic Park to hunt for his dinner?

Since he suggested a “carnivorous meal” as his last one, it’s probably safe to say he’s one of those vegetarians that misses his real meat and likes the imitation variety.

His longtime girlfriend, singer Katy Perry, who’s recently denied rumors they are engaged, said she wanted to make a New Year’s Resolution to become vegetarian, but thought it would be hard because she liked chicken too much.

Travis expressing his desire for flesh sure doesn’t do much to encourage her. Craving for chicken is one thing. How will she ever be convinced there are substitutes that taste just like T-Rex?

Vegetarian Gwyneth Paltrow Offers More Animal Flesh Recipes

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, December 19th, 2008 in Actresses, Not So Vegetarian.

The UK Premiere of Two Lovers

Gwyneth’s Paltrow’s vegetarianism these days is sort of like describing a prostitute’s puritanical traits. Yeah, there really aren’t many.

To make a long story short, the actress who claims to be “pretty much vegetarian”, has “pretty much” slept with the fur devil and given step by step instructions for making patties out of Tom Turkey these past few months. But she did abstained from ham. Always give credit when it’s due. 

Her latest newsletter from her online site, Goop, features the, cough, cough, vegetarian giving meal hints for the holidays.

“I generally always make the same meal for Christmas as I do for Thanksgiving with a few exceptions…Since you can pull up the Thanksgiving MAKE from the archive if you’re doing Whole Roast Turkey, I thought I would do a delicious Hanukkah menu and a Christmas breakfast.”

“For Hanukkah I love a Whole Roasted Fish with Salsa Verde and with the addition of the Latkes, you get that wonderful crisp potato thing on the side; it’s very satisfying…”

“The biscuits are a healthier version of the good ole’ southern version but are just as tasty. You can scramble an egg, add one of the homemade sausages, stick ’em in the fresh warm biscuit and, to quote a line from the epic eighties film Sixteen Candles, “Wha-lah, breakfast is ready!”

Um, wha-lah, girlfriend, breakfast is soooo not vegetarian ready!

It isn’t so much that we are attacking someone for promoting so much meat (not that we haven’t done that before), but it’s the fact that Gwyneth has associated herself with being vegetarian, yet is choosing to focus on so many meat dishes lately. She could have at least suggested her vegan pancakes with that darn turkey sausage!

“You find all kinds of things written about you that you don’t have the foggiest notion where they came from. I’m not a vegetarian. I love sushi and stuff like that. I do have to watch my fat intake, because I’m 78 years old.”
—Actor Clint Eastwood, in an interview with Canoe, on the rumors circulating the Internet that he is a vegan and/or vegetarian. We recently learned he practically fainted after learning of the rumor that he was a vegan. Apparently, he wants to make sure you know he’s no darn vegetarian either.

Well, excuse us, sushi man!

Bijou Phillips Smoking, Contemplating Steak: So Healthy Now

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 15th, 2008 in Actresses, Not So Vegetarian.

Grand Opening Of SLS Hotel

Actress Bijou Phillips who’s had roles in films such as Hostel II and Choke recently told the Los Angeles Times that she’s stop being vegan and started smoking again-now she feels healthier than ever.

“I’ve been on a vegan diet for six months and this morning I had eggs Benedict,” she said. “My body was like, ‘What happened? Did we just recover from a famine?'”

“It’s fine now! I’m eating. I’m smoking and eating regular food, so I should be OK.”

Okaaaay.

Phillips claims she got sick a lot when she was vegan and that she rarely got sick before trying to the diet. Of course, she didn’t go into detail into what she was eating while vegan. A severely reduced caloric diet that doesn’t include different types of food can make anyone sick. Perhaps she should have educated herself a little before deciding a vegan only meant to “cut” products from your diet versus “adding” others.

She said she was going to try Atkins because she had gained weight after quitting smoking.

So glad to know that everything’s fine now that Miss Phillips is smoking again. Everything will be even better once she chomps into a steak.

Pauly Shore Not Vegetarian, But Whole Ribs Too Hardcore

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 15th, 2008 in Actors, Flexitarian, Not So Vegetarian, TV Hosts.

The Cinema Society Hosts Screening Of

What’s with the wiki and other sites lately? Yes, we know they’re not law, but really, there’s been some wacky incorrect facts floating around.

First, we learned that Clint Eastwood is not only NOT a vegan, but had to have the definition of one explained to him, which resulted in a look of horror resembling a pet that knows it’s going to be spayed or neutered.

Now, we’re learning that Pauly Shore, actor best known for hosting MTV shows, is one of the falsely accused as well.

An excerpt from a recent interview with Memphis Flyer:

I heard you were a vegetarian. Is that true?

No. I love steak once in a while, just very rarely. I need my protein. I’ve got to stock up, you know.

So are you going to munch on some Memphis barbecue while you’re here?

Oh, I don’t know. I’m kind of sketchy on barbecue right now. Like, the whole ribs and shit, it’s kind of hardcore.

Hmmm. Since Pauly says he eats steak every once in awhile, but “whole ribs and shit” is hardcore, maybe he’s a flexitarian?

Update Wikipedia, update everyone. And keep your computers on standby ’cause you’ll probably be updating again soon.

Clint Eastwood Has Vegan WTF Moment

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, December 13th, 2008 in Actors, Not So Vegetarian.

The 2008 Kennedy Center Honors in Washington DC

Clint Eastwood has appeared on one of PETA’s Go Veg brochures with the quote attributed to him, “I try to stick to a vegan diet heavy on fruit, vegetables, tofu, and other soy products.”

Um…no, not really. In a recent interview with the New York Times, he stated he is not and has never been a vegan and looked rather disturbed when he was told what a vegan was, as if being a vegan was equivalent to castration.

“I never look at the Internet for just that reason,” he said.

Understandable. If you’re a celebrity it may be painful to read some of the stuff written about you. Just imagine what would have happened if Clint read his was a raw foodist!

The rumor that Eastwood is a vegan has shown up in a lot of places, including Wikipedia and other vegetarian and vegan sites.

But don’t let this tarnish your visions that there aren’t tons of vegan celebs out there, including the macho manly ones like Eastwood.

Ultimate fighter Mac Danzig can still kick carnivore butt. And since his girlfriend does a lot of cooking for him, it’s safe to say he’s far from being castrated.

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.

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

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
