Vegetarian Star

Carrie Underwood was recently profiled on That’s Fit for her healthy eating habits and exercise routine.

Miss Underwood has been a vegetarian since 13 years of age, does a lot of cardio to stay fit, and practices what she calls “obsessive” food journaling, according to an interview with Glamour magazine.

Food journals are way people document what they’ve eaten and the nutritional content, cravings that come and go, and situations that made them eat more or less on a certain day.

While private journals of celebrities make for juicy reading info, you can bet if Carrie decided to publish hers, it wouldn’t sell well at bookstores in some states.

She said before that she’s learned to keep her vegetarianism to herself because in some parts of the country, when she’s announced she is one on stage during her performances, she gets booed.

Although her parents were cattle ranchers, American Idol alum and country music singer Carrie Underwood became vegetarian during her teens when she was still living with them.

While mom and dad were supportive of her diet, not everyone she encounters while touring in some areas are as welcoming.

She says she has to be careful while performing in places where cattle ranching is big, because there’s a chance if she announces she’s vegetarian, she’ll get booed.

“I’m a vegetarian and there are some parts of the United States where you do not announce that to the audience,” she explains. “And while the crowd might be kind of playing with me, sometimes if I do let that slip, I do get booed. So it’s something I’m working on-keeping me vegetarianism to myself.”

The end of the year marks the making of lots of lists-resolutions, top or greatest events or people, and trends to look for in the upcoming year.

Carrie Underwood made PETA’s list for what’s “in” for 2009, and is obviously a stark contrast to her opposite of what is “out”, “Jessica Simpson.

Sure, they may both be beautiful blond babes who sing their hearts out, but as a vegetarian since her teens, Carrie’s got it going on where it counts.

Both have been considered, “sexy,” but Miss Underwood has won the title of Sexiest Vegetarian Alive. Still, waiting for Simpson to be crowned “Sexiest Carnivore.”

Lastly, Carrie definitely makes better judgement in fashion. We suspect Pamela Anderson will never leave Jessica alone for wearing her Real Girls Eat Meat t-shirt.

Congrats to Carrie. Better luck next time Jess.

Read the entire list to see who and what made the cut.

American Idol winner and country music star Carrie Underwood has been a vegetarian since her teens and recently helped fellow Idol alum Kellie Pickler make the transition to the diet.

Carrie made the decision to stop eating meat while living with her parents, who ironically, are cattle ranchers. And although she wouldn’t dare eat anything they produce, it didn’t change her feelings for them.

“I respect what they do very much. That’s what put clothes on my back and paid for college,” she said in an interview with Tampa Bay Online. “But cows were like my dogs. I named them, I played with them, I bottle-fed them. When I realized why we had cows, I couldn’t think of anyone eating my friends. It scared me, and I quit eating meat.”

When she goes home to Oklahoma these days, it’s not exactly the vegan mecca, like L.A., so she’s forced to bring her own food.

“I can get a veggie sub at Subway, but that’s about it.”

People who grow up and take on different beliefs or lifestyles from their family deal with it in different ways. Some become extremely outspoken to the point where it damages relationships and some are able to separate the people from the act they do.

Are you a vegetarian in a family of people in the meat industry, such as cattle ranching or even a butcher shop? Has it affected your relationships with them in any way since you became vegetarian?

Carrie: No Kellie, you don’t want to eat it if it’s cooked in chicken broth. LOL!

Carrie Underwood may have found a man that’s just as good as animals this time.  She was spotted having dinner with Travis Stork, a former TV “Bachelor.”

Insiders gave lots of juicy details such as the dinner couple holding hands and showing affect and taking a break from lovin’ to sing Happy Birthday to a nearby party.

We have a strange suspicion that insiders failed to notice that Carrie got interrupted 10 times that night by newly vegetarian Kellie Pickler texting questions about rennet, soymilk, and natural flavorings.

Underwood had said before in an interview that if she had to choose between animals and men, she’d choose animals because she hasn’t found a good man yet, but lots of good animals.

Poor Stork. Doesn’t know the cats, dogs, and farm animals he may be up against.

Carrie ate a very veggie ravioli and beet salad, then finished off with an omelet. No news on what Stork ate.

Kellie: Thanx babe. Luv u so much:)

Once again, an oldie, but goodie.

Did Tony Romo get tossed away for Babe or Fido?

After Carrie Underwood won American Idol in 2005, she answered 20 questions for CMT about herself. When asked if she had to choose between animals and men, she replied, “I haven’t found a good man, yet. I’ve found lots of good animals, so I’d go with animals.”

Ouch! Her next beau will have to work really hard to measure up to all the relationships she’s had in the past with (non-human) animals. Growing up in rural Oklahoma, she bottled fed cows and befriended piglets and loved them so much, she gradually phased eating meat out of her life between the ages of 10-13.
