Vanity Fair & Apparition Present the Premiere of "Bright Star" - Arrivals

Actress Abbie Cornish stars as Francis Fanny Brawne, the love interest of famous poet John Keats in the recently released movie Bright Star.

We’re proud to say Abbie is also a veg star and has been that way since age 13.

According to the Times Online, Abbie grew up around farm animals in New South Wales and spent her time painting, swimming and taking photos.

“I never felt like I just want to be an actor, and that’s it,” she said. “I always wanted to work with animals. I want to make music, to paint, to take photos, to travel…“That’s a lot, right? Sometimes I wonder how I’m going to get it all done.”

As a beautiful and talented actress, now’s the best time ever to work with animals and encourage others to do the same, Abbie.

You’re a superwoman! Start promoting adoption or animal rescue ASAP!

Dr. Neal Barnard

Dr. Neal Barnard

When Marilu Henner was asked who to Award the Veggie Guy Power label to, she answered:

“Dr. Neil Barnard for creating PCRM (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine). He’s great at getting the word out, and he looks so damn good doing it!”

PCRM is a network of doctors and other individuals who work to promote more ethical practices in medicine, research and health care.

They are for alternative methods of testing to animal research and advocate a vegetarian diet.

Dr. Barnard is the president of PCRM, has authored several books, contributed to academic journals and lay magazines and has been a proud veg since discovering the ribs in his med school cafeteria resembled the cadavers he worked on in the lab.

He’s also quite good looking.

Hmm…Maybe the PCRM could promote their mission better if their doctors did do nude veggie PSAs.

"Movies Rock" A Celebration Of Music In Film - After Party

Christopher Jarecki, rock musician and husband of Alicia Silverstone, is normally a pretty well behaved man.

But every once in awhile he gets “naughty.”

When asked if her husband was also vegan, Silverstone replied, “He’s a vegan who flirts with fish. Sometimes he gets naughty and has a little fish here or there.”

But the most important question is: How does Alicia punish Christopher for being bad?

Are you guilty of being naughty in your diet?

Although some vegetarian celebrities have reported difficulty finding food in some countries, Propagandhi front man Chris Hannah says the exact opposite has been true for his traveling abroad experiences.

“The staple foods in most cultures are plant-based and then they add animal products on top of that, so I’ve never had trouble. If you’re not the type of person that defaults to processed junk food, if you enjoy and eat fresh fruit and vegetables, they’re everywhere on the planet. Outside of the extremes of Antarctica and the Arctic, there’s something to eat.”

And now with cool veggie technology like the iphone application VegOut, it’s never been easier to find the restaurant that serves what you’re looking for.

There may even be a tofu stand in Antarctica somewhere.

The best part about Twitter is getting to update about the good grub you’ve devoured.

Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter, recently did this about a homemade meal his wife cooked.

“Wow, @Livia just took her homemade vegan lasagna out of the oven — I’m hungry!”

Here’s the finished product.

This puzzle us, because last time we checked, Biz was a vegan.

Is that soy cheese on the lasagna?
