Bethenny Frankel‘s long awaited “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” PETA ad has finally arrived.

This is what every real housewife should be wearing.

Not long ago, Bethenny felt the need to cover up–with fur.

Then an encounter with some anti-fur protesters made her rethink her fashion decisions.

“Since then, I have really been against it. I’m cleaning out my closets–trim, everything.”

Is it time to clean out your own closet from all things cruel, including fur and leather?

“Top Chef” Season 6 Finale Featured Vegetarian Dishes (Video)

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, December 3rd, 2009 in Food & Drink, Reality TV, Videos.

It’s been a great season for herbivores on Top Chef.

Zooey Deschanel made a guest appearance that challenged the judges to not only cook meat free, but also without gluten and soy.

Then came along Natalie Portman, who dropped the V word on the cheftestants and ended up with a mouthful of shallots and garlic.

Last night’s episode featured the chefs making two dishes-one vegetarian and one featuring a local protein (which could have also been vegetarian…hmpf!) for a party of 150 people.

In the end, Jen put way more salt on her veggie dish than the judges preferred and she was sent packing while the brothers Voltaggio and Gillespie remain standing.

Watch the clip above to hear Jen’s thoughts on her exit.

Joanna Krupa “Be An Angel For Animals” Pet Adoption PETA Ad

A little bit of nakedness here and there never hurt anyone and certainly gets your attention for a good cause.

Dancing with the Stars competitor Joanna Krupa strips down to her wings to urge you to always adopt from a shelter.

According to the Humane Society of the United States, out of the 6-8 million dogs and cats who arrive at animal shelters every year, only 3-4 million of those are adopted.

You may not look as great in wings or on the dance floor as Joanna, but if you open your home to the animals in shelters waiting to be adopted, you’ll never be voted off the competition.

Sinitta X Factor Fountain Studios–Fur Real Or Fur Fake

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 in Fur, Fur Real Or Fur Fake, Reality TV.

The X Factor judge Dannii Minogue and show's mentor Sinitta are seen leaving Fountain Studios in Wembley

Simon Cowell knew Linda McCartney faux sausages had the X Factor.

But if his assistant and X Factor mentor Sinitta is wearing real fur trim, she definitely isn’t a star.

What is with this bizarre looking accessory on her coat, anyway?

Seems as if an animal is crawling around her neck, hoping to pop out any minute to get its 5 minutes of fame on TV.

Of course, Sinitta probably knows the only way to wear a fur is to wear one more artificial than John and Edward’s (aka “Divas of Dublin”) gel preserved hairdos.

Your vote counts.

Is Sinitta keeping her X Factor by faking it?

Or is she fur real?

Jillian Michaels is quite the multi-promoter.

The Biggest Loser coach was spotted sporting a PETA Fight Breedism t-shirt.

What’s even more cool is that Jillian is standing in front of a Subway restaurant–and highlighting healthier alternatives to fast food.

Jillian is almost veg–saying she consumes some fish here and there.

We’re crossing our fingers she’ll follow the lead of Biggest Loser co-star Bob Harper and go veg completely one day.

Kim Kardashian Fitness DVDs–Keeping Up With Nutrition On Set

Kim Kardashian Hosts Launch Event for FusionBeauty's New Infatuation Lip Gloss

Jennifer Galardi choreographed Kim Kardashian‘s fitness DVDs and gave some exclusive behind the scenes details to That’s Fit on the moves that help Kim maintain her famous Armenian Princess Kardashian curves.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has hinted that she’s eating more vegetarian meals to stay fit and she and Galardi enjoyed vegetarian food during the filming of the DVDs.

“It’s always challenging to eat well on a production set, but one of my favorite vegetarian restaurants was near the studio, and I introduced Kim to some great-tasting raw and macrobiotic foods, like Scarlett Quinoa (grains made with beets to color the dish a beautiful red),” Galardi said.

“We also ate lots of steamed kale and some sushi. You really can’t practice the “starvation” diet method that many models and actresses employ when you’re shooting energetic exercise DVDs. You’ve got to sustain all that stamina for the cameras. Kim and I were doing multiple takes of these workouts so it’s crucial to give your body the energy it needs from healthy and vibrant foods. Of course, dark chocolate is always a great snack option!”

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, October 15th, 2009 in Fashion, Reality TV.

61st Primetime Emmy Awards Nominees For Outstanding Costumes Kick-Off Party

Tonight’s episode of Project Runway titled “Sequins, Feathers and Fur, Oh My!” seems puzzling, as it conveys that the catwalk will be covered in bird and animal-wear.

But wait.

Anyone who follows fashion king Tim Gunn knows he not down with fur by any means, as designers are not permitted to use it in their fashions.

And a recent episode had one divorcee request a completely animal-free piece of fashion created by recycling her old wedding dress.

Will this be an opportunity for the contestants to shine faux style?

Tune in tonight at 10PM et/pt on Lifetime to find out!

“Project Runway” Cruelty Free “Divorcee Dress Challenge” Stephanie

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, October 12th, 2009 in Fashion, Reality TV.

61st Primetime Emmy Awards Nominees For Outstanding Costumes Kick-Off Party

A recent episode of Project Runway with anti-fur fashion guru Tim Gunn highlighted a newly singled woman’s mission to make a fresh start in the most kindest of ways.

Divorcee Dress Challenge “Stephanie” asked Nicolas to take her wedding dress and turn it into something she could wear for everyday use.

But Stephanie wasn’t just looking to turn a train into a tube top. She wanted her outfit to be free from wool, leather, silk and fur.

The New York Post joked about Stephanie’s “cruelty-free” request.

“Tim sends in their divorcees. I think Tim just likes to Frenchify words whenever c’est possible. Gordana’s divorcee wants to attract a young ruffian of the street, Shirin’s divorcee wants to be a “Cher half-breed,” and Nicolas’ divorcee wants her new look to be cruelty free and preferably made out of organic granola. Nicolas can’t guarantee it will be cruelty-free, because having to deal with Nicolas is the cruelest joke of all.”

Yay for Stephanie!

With a heart like hers, she’s sure to make a great new start for herself.
