Quantcast Vegetarian Starbreast cancer

Like many men, Steve-O has an interest in breasts.

He recently told Vanity Fair how he really feels about those pink ribbons going around during the month of October for Breast Cancer Awareness.

“Let me tell you how I feel about these pink ribbons. I was watching the N.F.L. last week, and all the players were wearing pink. I don’t think they did anything to educate people about cancer prevention. I don’t think a pink ribbon does anything. What people need to know is that it’s the atrocious diet of Americans that’s responsible for all your cancer, all your heart disease, all your diabetes.”

Stand Up To Cancer - Arrivals

It’s October and that means Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Fitsugar.com has compiled a slideshow of 10 celebrity breast cancer survivors, and two of the ladies are vegetarian favorites, Melissa Etheridge and Christina Applegate.

Doctors found a lump in Melissa’s breast in 2004 and she sought chemo and radiation treatment, performing bald at a Janis Joplin tribute in 2005.

After Christina Applegate’s breast cancer was detected, she decided to remove both breasts and treated herself to a brand new pair of manufactured boobs after her surgeries.

As we’ve cited before, vegetarians tend to have lower death rates from cancer than meat eaters.

Rock A Little, Feed Alot Benefit Concert - Arrivals

Christina Applegate visited Kansas City in the Power & Light district, in celebration of Lee Jeans’ National Denim Day, the company’s biggest all day fundraiser for breast cancer.

Applegate, a breast cancer survivor herself, helped unfurl a check with 10 other survivors she called her “sisters in boobs” for $4.5 million.

Kansas City is nicknamed “cowtown” and a reporter for kansascity.com asked the vegetarian Applegate if she could live in such a town that’s famous for barbecue and steaks.

“I don’t know. Probably. I’ve lived in a big city, I’ve lived in the mountains,” Applegate said.

Q: But you wouldn’t eat the cows.

A: I would love them and protect them.

Q:…So I guess we don’t appeal to you on those grounds (eating barbecue and steak).

A:Not necessarily on that front, but the people are very kind. And it looks like a nice little city. And I can play “Kansas City” on the guitar.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, btw. If you haven’t touched a tit yet, now’s a great time to get started.

“It’s funny when you get diagnosed with cancer and you’re a raw food vegan — for 10 years! You think they’re lying to you, or they got your chart mixed up. You’re like, ‘Get out of here!’ You’re not shocked. It’s not like you’re devastated. You don’t buckle. I didn’t. I know people who did. I was just really surprised. I thought someone was playing a bit of a practical joke on me because I’m a joker.”

—-Juno Award winning, Canadian singer-songwriter Bif Naked, who has been undergoing treatment for an aggressive form of breast cancer. But don’t let that fool you into thinking she’s been bedridden. Her 6th studio album, The Promise, is set to be released in May.
