Daisy De La Hoya Missed Her Non Drinking Brian Magee

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, May 15th, 2009 in Reality TV.

LA Premiere Of Anvil! The Story Of Anvil - ArrivalsDaisy De La Hoya recently suffered from exhaustion and had to recover in a hospital room, according to msnbc.com.

After hearing her complaints about the lack of serious men she’s trying to hook up with on Daisy of Love, it’s no wonder the poor gal gave out!

Apparently, these men are members of the Vh1 Fraternity and love to drink, drink, and drink. Did we mention they like alcohol?

Entertainment Weekly reported Daisy to have once said, “This is Daisy of Love. Not I Love Liquor.”

Too bad for Daisy, that she missed out on one contestant, Syracuse resident Brian Magee, who was let go shortly after winning a chance to compete on the show. Magee is a straight-edge vegan like Fall Out Boy’s Andy Hurley. And straight-edgers don’t drink alcohol.

Maybe in a different life Daisy. For now, it’s Bachelor Heineken or Bachelor Coors.

The celebrity natural foods chef even created BethennyBakes™, baked goodies without eggs, wheat, and dairy.

So happy to hear this gal is taking a stance against fur. We’ll keep you posted when the ad comes out!

Kim Kardashian Keeping Up With Tofu, Soy Cheese, Veggie Burgers

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, May 1st, 2009 in Food & Drink, Reality TV.

Premiere Of Wonderful World At The 2009 Tribeca Film Festival

If you thought Kim Kardashian was looking hotter these days, maybe it’s because she’s following a macrobiotic diet that keeps her away from burgers and fries.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians reality TV star told US Weekly Magazine that lately she’s been eating lots of tofu, quinoa, soy cheese, and veggie burgers.

If she keeps this up, she may become vegetarian before sister Khloe does.

The diet change complements her workout regime of 2 hours a day in preparation for filming her 3 part fitness DVD series titled, Fit In Your Jeans By Friday.

Sure hope Kim continues her veggie burger with soy cheese habit once she slips into those  jeans on Friday.

A commercial aired during a recent episode of Dancing With The Stars that made fun of PETA’s “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaigns.

Here are a few of the cold, hard facts and statements about the dance television industry you should know about:

“Every year, hundreds are dancers are hurt senselessly in order to make dance television.”

“How many more mic pads do I have to land on?”

“How many more camera men will I run into?”

“I’d rather go naked than see another dancer hurt.”

Watch the video for hilarious satire.

Hell’s Kitchen Ben Thinks Tuna Is Vegetarian

Take a good look at this man, folks. If he is preparing your vegetarian meal, run away and don’t eat it.

Twenty-six year old Ben from Chicago, IL is the latest contestant to burn in Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen.

After last week’s performance, we’re not surprised.

You see, Ben asked Gordon if a vegetarian salad needed tuna.

The question resulted in a slew of tirades from Ramsay, but Ben just didn’t get it.

Later to the camera, Ben boasts the only reason Ramsay yelled at him is because Ramsay see him as a potential winner in the contest.

Maybe Ben himself has been eating too much tuna like Jeremy Piven and is suffering from some sort of mental confusion from mercury poisoning. 

If you’re looking for a faux tuna recipe, check out this Dolphin-Friendly mock tuna sandwich.

Update from our post on Sign Carrying Vegans in the American Idol audience!

Liz D. just dropped a tip to let us know that the sign carrying vegan was Isa Chandra Moskowitz of the Post Punk Kitchen!

You kitchen fanatics know Isa from her cookbooks, such as Vegan with a Vengeance and Veganomicon.

We think it’s totally rad that Isa got some face time for carrying her vegan sign! Maybe this will make Simon Cowell reconsider going back on the vegetarian diet he tried for a week years ago

For other pics of Isa at the American Idol show, visit PostPunkKitchen.com.

Sign Carrying Vegans In American Idol Audience Hurt By Flowercide?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, April 25th, 2009 in Reality TV.

Update: The vegan sign carryer in the audience was vegan author Isa Chandra Moskowitz. See new post for details

Either Entertainment Weekly is making fun of Earth Day and vegans or there were some people in the American Idol audience professing their vegan love!

In a recap of last week’s Idol show at popwatch.ew.com, writer Whitney Pastorak poked fun of several people, including a wild pack of teenage girls:

“The pack of three preteen girls behind me — who were so excited they spent most of the show clawing at one another’s arms, and I hope to god their mothers trimmed their nails beforehand lest they look like they were mauled by adolescent bobcats..”

Since there were live flowers passed around, Pastorek joked she hoped the vegans in the audience weren’t too shook up over the death of the plants.

“There were a bunch of sign-carrying vegans in the audience tonight, and I can only hope the whole incident wasn’t too much for them to bear. Unless vegans don’t mind flowercide. I always forget what we can and cannot kill in this crazy world.”

It’s hard to tell if Pastorek is serious or not, so chime in and let us know if you’ve heard anything. Were there any veg groups attending the American Idol show that night?

The Celebrity Apprentice candidates are dropping faster than the real hairs on Donald Trump’s head did before he put whatever creature of a hairpiece is currently living there now.

Heisman Trophy winner and former running back Herschel Walker is the latest to get the ax. 

The apprentices were given the task of creating a healthy frozen meal for a large company which produces frozen entrees. Herschel led his team with the idea of soy ginger chicken. But dude should never have advocated the chicken dish, given the fact that he’s vegetarian. And that’s probably why he paid the price.

The meal wasn’t exactly the most palatable. Anna Pickard at the Guardian, had a funny way of describing the ordeal:

“The orange helps a lot, and it’s presented: Asian Orange Chicken, quickly renamed to Orange Asian-style chicken when someone notices it’s not ACTUALLY Asian and has never had an Asian person remotely near it: and that something that sounds like ‘Agent Orange Chicken’ might not be a great selling point.”

Yes, Agent Orange, DNA mutating chicken is definitely bad for business.

Unfortunately, Trump was into turkey balls that night and no amount of Agent Orange could mutate him into saving Herschel.

Said Trump, “I love you. I love you Herschel. I love you. I’m not a gay man, but I love you. And you’re fired.”

When Herschel admitted he wasn’t a meat eater, Donald asked why he chose to be in charge of it. It was because that dreadful dog eating Joan Rivers pushed for it.
