Vegetarian Star

Kellie Pickler was a guest on The Ellen DeGeneres Show where she displayed her new hairdo!

Pickler’s sleek, almost bald look was created to support one of her closest friends who was diagnosed with cancer.

“It’s just hair!” she said. “I will be honest with you, I was a little nervous and she was too. [We thought], ‘I hope we don’t have some crazy birthmark or wort or mole or something . . . but we had fun.”

Mark Bittman agrees that the new soda ban in New York pushed by Mayor Bloomberg is a step in the right direction toward fixing America’s health problems. But more can be done, as he explains in an interview with The Daily Ticker.

Bittman is asking fast food establishments like McDonald’s to make calorie content more visible and start offering more plant-based options.

“If McDonald’s wanted to make a dent in obesity, they could do something much better than posting calorie counts,” he says. McDonald’s could “encourage the consumption of smaller sodas rather than encouraging the consumption of bigger sodas. What I say to them is: how about falafel? How about hummus? How about more plant-based food that’s becoming much more mainstream in the U.S.? People know what this stuff is.”

Fur-free and otherwise ethical fashionistas will come out on the evening of September 22 for the Humane Society’s H-Couture fashion show meant to highlight cruelty-free men’s and women’s designer wear.

Vampire Diaries stars Paul Wesley and Torrey DeVitto will host the event featuring designs by John Bartlett, Charlotte Ronson and more.

“Fashion should be fun, and I don’t see how wearing animal fur can be anything other than cruel and unnecessary,” says DeVitto. Wesley added, “We both support events that promote compassion for animals.”

Arian Foster sat down for an interview with CBS News to discuss some highlights about his NFL career, including his recent decision to adopt a vegan diet.

“I’ve always dabbled in healthy options,” Foster said. “I just kind of felt like it was the most healthy option for me.”

In response to some of the criticism he’s received on his decision, Foster said, “I think it’s funny, like nobody cared what I was eating last year and now everybody’s interested.”

He said he feels his diet has aided him in the ability to recover from injuries.

The first ever Internet Cat Film Festival was a huge success, drawing a crowd of over 10,000 feline lovers.

Festival Organizer Katie Czarniecki Hill said the idea started out as a joke.

“It is an experiment,” she told the Los Angeles Times. “It will be interesting to see if people think it is silly, or great, or a waste of time. But I like the idea of everyone admitting they like cat videos.”

A total of 79 videos were shown at the Minneapolis event, handpicked from about 10,000 entries.

This year’s winner in the people’s choice award was Henri 2, Paw de Deux, which won the “Golden Kitty” award. Henri 2 spends his moments lamenting the everyday problems cat endure, such as the pains of living with another “idiot” cat that annoys him by begging for cheeseburgers and the fact he’s not paid enough attention. Self-confident and secure with his body image, he pokes fun of humans who fear the bathroom scale.
