Pamela Anderson Getting RAW With Her Own Fragrance Line

Pamela Anderson has been running and hitting the pavement at full speed lately.

She recently collaborated with Richie Rich to develop a cruelty-free clothing and shoe line, Muse. She hinted (if even humorously) at a cooking television show where women make vegetarian food in bikinis.

Now, she’s coming out with her own brand of fragrance.

From her blog, Pammie writes:

“Finally a company with a heart—so glad we found each other- a company in Florida looks promising- I have developed a line of natural body fragrances and have more products to come- first fragrance is Raw by pamela…company is called pamela- super enviro-conscious, cruelty free- yummy-natural- very sexy fragrance I wear every day- will be available this summer—department stores, drug stores, affordable choices- I want to sell where I shop— nothing too fancy— Keep the Country COUNTRY!”

How cool it will be to get inexpensive, vegan fragrances at the local drug or grocery store!

But she’s not done yet. There’s also talk of a beauty drink under the same RAW brand, which stands for “Real Activist Wild.”

Go Pamela!

Ecorazzi Dude Michael Parrish DuDell Says There’s A New Veganism

Experience Life Magazine is all about healthy living.

Smart folks like you know healthy living includes a vegetarian diet, and this month Experience Life has chosen to speak with two folks well known in the vegan world-Rory Freedman, author of the Skinny Bitch series, and Michael Parrish DuDell, senior editor at Ecorazzi.com, a green gossip website.

DuDell says there’s a new veganism taking place, one which doesn’t involve the stereotypical person the Gossip Girls Blair and Serena poked fun of on a episode.

“There is a new veganism,” said DuDell “The new vegan is not your typical patchouli-wearing, dreadlock-sporting hippie. There’s even vegan fashion from designers like Stella McCartney.”

“Now you can walk into some of the best restaurants and tell them you’re a vegan, and they’ll prepare a great vegan meal for you.”

You can read the rest of what Michael has to say at Experiencelifemag.com.

There’re definitely more options for vegans than there were a decade ago. But is it really that easy to get a great vegan meal prepared? And do most people still stereotype vegans as non deodorant wearing college students who camp out on the adminstration lawn?

What do you guys think of Michael’s statement? Chime in and let everybody know.

Damien Fahey Hosts The TRL Wrap Party


John Norris, MTV news correspondent, likes his candy dirty. The vegetarian restaurant in New York city, Dirt Candy, ran by Moby’s former chef Amanda Cohen, has earned his praises.

The vegan wrote about his love of Dirt Candy recently on newyork.decider.com.

“When Dirt Candy opened on East 9th Street last October, it was initially a “find.” Suffice it to say that much of the city has found it. The place is packed night after night, and for good reason: From jalapeno hush puppies to spinach soup with tofu dumplings, from carrot risotto to crispy tofu with green ragout, the restaurant boasts one of the freshest, most inventive vegetarian menus in town. Amanda Cohen, Dirt Candy’s chef/owner, boasts a résumé that includes such treasures as Angelica Kitchen, Pure Food and Wine, and the late, lamented Heirloom. And not only are all of Amanda’s dishes vegetarian, they can all be made vegan—even better. The only suggestion I would offer Dirt Candy: Triple in size! Then maybe I could get in as often as I’d like.”

Ironically, Cohen and her restaurant were criticized by some vegans when it first opened, due to some statements she made to the media about them and the food.

Looks as if John Norris doesn’t take a bit of offense!

Meatless Mouthful: Heather Mills Nuts, Hated By Everyone

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, April 21st, 2009 in Meatless Mouthful, Models.

Heather Mills Named Honorary Chair Of Hunts Point Alliance For Children
“Everyone thinks I’m nuts because I speak the truth and I’m very outspoken. The meat industry hates me, the dairy industry hates me, the Beatle industry hates me, the landmine industry. So I have a lot of enemies out there. But I also have a lot of support.

—-Heather Mills, in a speech given at a vegetarian show in London recently. Love her or hate her, Heather has certainly put her footprint in the media. And although she may be viewed as erratic by some, she continues to be a vocal activist for the veg life and animals.

What’s your opinion on Heather? Does she appear too nutty in public with her words and antics? Or is it just her free spiritness and passion for her work that drives her behavior?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, April 20th, 2009 in Environment-Eco-Green, Fashion, Models.

zoe_zac_payless

In the old days if you were on a budget and looking for animal-free footwear, Payless ShoeSource was your one stop hub. Only every shoe there was made from fibers drenched in toxic chemicals that made your feet turn colors on a hot summer day.

That’s all changed now. Payless launched their Zoe & Zac collection last week and model and green activist Summer Rayne Oakes is the face of sustainable, green footwear.

Every pair in the women and girls collection is under $30.

If that doesn’t get you salivating, here’s some of the green features the shoes have to offer: organic cotton, faux suede and faux leather materials manufactured with reduced heavy metals, recycled rubber and elastic made from recycled plastic bottles, and water based and non-toxic glues. 

Plus, any Zoe & Zac shoe purchased donates $1 to the Nature Conservancy’s Plant a Billion campaign. As in, a billion, beautiful, CO2 reducing trees.

What are you waiting for? Head to the nearest Payless near you now!

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.

Pamela Anderson Wants Veggie Bikini Cooking Show On Beach

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, April 20th, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink.

Vivienne Westwood Red Label - LFW Spring Summer 2009 - Runway


Pamela Anderson wants to return to her Baywatch days, only this time combining thongs with tofu.

The actress wrote on her blog that she is interested in doing a vegan cooking show. But she wants to host it in a bikini.

“I’ve been cooking Vegan every day (myself) – experimenting – trying out new things – I still think I should have my own sexy/fun Vegan-cooking show?- maybe one day.”

“Could always have Girls in bikinis cooking veggies on the beach. I keep getting crazy offers to go back on TV – I don’t think I have the passion anymore for it. What is TV these days anyway? Sensory overload – too busy living the dream? (unless I could do the veggie bikini BBQ show) – I just don’t think I could pull it off – no studio for me (sic).”

Could this be the next Food Network hit?
