Vegetarian Star

Could a Twilight vegetarian vampire be a real vegan?

Ashley Greene was spotted taking her dog for a walk before stopping by vegan restaurant Real Food Daily for lunch.

Greene plays Alice Cullen in the Twilight, Eclipse and New Moon movies about a family of vegetarian vampires who call themselves such because they don’t eat humans like other vampires do, but they still eat animals in the wild.

After hearing what Taylor Lautner ate to gain weight for his New Moon role, even vampire blood is starting to sound better.

“Yeah, so I carry around a Baggie and it has meat patties in it,” Lautner told Entertainment Weekly. “The worst is not the patties. It’s the sweet potatoes. They get raw and cold and gushy.”

Taylor’s meat and potatoes habit allowed him to put on 30 pounds, but how many points did he put on his cholesterol?

All the vegetarian and vegan male athletes like Tony Gonzalez, Prince Fielder, Georges Laraque and Brendan Brazier know seitan “wheat” meat or Gardein faux meat and potatoes would keep Taylor buffed and ripped, save a few animals and not significantly add to the carbon emissions dirtying up Mother Earth like meat production does.

You can view Taylor’s “animal” body of steel when New Moon hits theatres November 20.

Unfortunately, the experience won’t be nearly such a turn on for the veggie ladies.

If you haven’t had enough of this “vegetarian” vampire talk with the Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse sagas, there’s more to satisfy your cravings of blood sucking creatures pretending to be vegetarians just because they don’t eat people.

But people like vampires, whether they eat meat, veggie burgers, or people, and the series premiere of The Vampire Diaries was the most watched in The CW network’s history, drawing 4.8 million viewers, topping 90210‘s 2008 debut, according to Tvguidge.com.

If it’s any consolation, vegetarian vampires, like Stefan pictured on the right, suffer ridicule and are ostracized like human do sometimes.

From tuftsdaily.com:

“The show follows Elena (Nina Dobrev), a tragically beautiful high-school student who has recently suffered her parents’ deaths. She is immediately attracted to Stefan (Paul Wesley), a handsome transfer student with a mysterious air. Of course, Stefan is a centuries-old vampire who refuses to feed on humans and has returned to his hometown for Elena, who is the splitting image of his lost love Katherine. His pursuit is complicated, however, by the arrival of his evil brother Damon (Somerhalder), who has been feeding on townspeople and taunting Stefan about his “vegetarian” status.”

Catch The Vampire Diaries Thursdays at 8/7c on The CW.

Ben Gibbard and Chris Walla of Death Cab For Cutie are celebrating with Amy’s Frozen Burritos.

They’ve got one of the first songs to be announced for the New Moon soundtrack, Meet Me On The Equinox.

Ben and Chris will truly be the real vegetarian vampires of New Moon-not just the pseudo ones that don’t eat people.

Between the two band members, who would you rather…

Death Cab For Cutie will have a song on the New Moon soundtrack called Meet Me On The Equinox.

Seems fitting that real vegetarians Ben Gibbard and Chris Walla would sing a song for a movie about vegetarian vampires.

Take a listen and say what you think.

Kristen Stewart will portray veggie singer and musician Joan Jett in the upcoming film, The Runaways, which portrays Joan’s life and the 70s band she fronted.

And you thought the dark mullet was just a fashion change for the actress who’ll be starring in New Moon, the sequel to Twilight this fall.

Looks like Kristen will be playing a vegetarian again.

Although technically Joan became a vegetarian after the Runaways, she’s been quite active with promoting the lifestyle, whether it’s recording PSAs, visiting farm sanctuaries, or casually mentioning her diet in interviews.

In Twilight, Kristen played vegetarian Bella, the love interest of vegetarian vampire Edward Cullen, who was seen enjoying Garden Burgers with her dad at the local diner in Forks, Washington. She even once told  him he should try one sometime instead of his usual steak.

Coincidence? A “Twilight” moment?

You can’t go to any news site on the web these days without hearing about the filming of the upcoming sequel to Twilight, New Moon.

Peter Facinelli will be returning to the set to play Dr. Carlisle Cullen and if his preparation is anything like it was for Twilight, he’ll be downing steak like it’s the last cow on earth. Disgusting!

“I started eating a lot more meat than I usually eat,” Facinelli said, when asked by Premier.com if he tried to be vegetarian to get into character for the role of a vegetarian vampire. Remember, these are only pseudo vegetarian vampires, because “vegetarian” to them, just means not eating humans.

“I was just hungry for red meat the whole time. So it kind of had a backwards effect on me, because normally I’m more on the vegetarian side. So with this, I was eating steak all the time.”

Normally on the vegetarian side? So normally, Peter doesn’t eat humans, hahahaha.

While his children with wife Jennie Garth were enjoying tofu stir-fry, he was sinking his fangs into beef. 

Hopefully, he’s gotten that out of his system and doesn’t need “re-schooling” to get back into character.

Hey Peter, just pretend your steak is cute little Bella and you’re Edward trying to fight off the urge to give her a big open mouth smooch and swallow.

The vegetarian vampires of the Twilight saga are like vegetarian humans who call themselves vegetarian but say they eat chicken. Yeah…not really.

But if you’re a vampire living in Forks, Washington, then refraining from eating humans and eating forest creatures instead is vegetarian. Vampire readers in Forks, you know what we’re talking about right? Never mind, we don’t really want that question answered.

Robert Pattinson plays vegetarian vampire Edward Cullen, who thanks to his “vegetarian” diet, has topaz colored eyes. The producers couldn’t find a real human with topaz colored eyes, so when Robert got the part, they forced him to wear topaz colored contact lenses. And they can make a vegetarian vampire quite grumpy.

He told Britain’s Ok Magazine he isn’t looking forward to shooting the sequel New Moon, because he has to wear the lenses.

“It was like I constantly had sand in my eyes. I was wearing them for three months constantly and my eyes never ever accepted them! It took me 20 minutes per eye every single day and I ended up having to literally fold it into my eyeball.”

Not only that, but they inhibit vampire seductive skills.

“It was frustrating as well because normally your eyes are saying something, but if you’ve got two orange blobs in your face it’s so annoying! The director would say, ‘Look at her (Kristen Stewart) like you love her,’ and I’d be like, ‘I’m trying!'”

At least he gets the reward of munching on some forest critters in his trailer between scenes.
