Vegetarian Star

If you could pick any one celebrity to dress vegan, who would it be?

Obviously those fur wearing hags of Hollywood top the list.

Vegnews.com recently spoke to three vegan fashion designers, Inder Bedi of Matt & Nat, Elizabeth Olsen of OlsenHaus, and Leanne Mai-ly Hilgart of Vaute Couture on who they’d like to play dress up with.

Leanne of Vaute Couture answered:

“I adore Ginnifer Goodwin, and she has just reserved her own Vaute coat! This made my month. Next, I would flip to dress Ellen [DeGeneres]. To steal the immortal words of Sting, “Every little thing she does is magic.” For non-vegan celebrity, Audrey Hepburn is my all-time favorite.”

Inder would like to take his fashion stab at Natalie Portman and Madonna.

Emily Deschanel and Cameron Diaz are favorites for Olsen.

If you want to copy Ginnifer’s style, you can choose your very own Vaute coat online at vautecouture.com.

Here’s a video clip of Aaron and his dogs Laila and Ali, with Aaron explaining why he wanted to get involved with the PSA.

“I felt like dogs deserve the same respect as a human being,” Curry said. “How would you feel if you were chained up in the backyard all day.”

Laila was given to Aaron as a birthday gift recently, and Ali was rescued from a shelter.

Pamela Anderson enjoyed some vegan pizza at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica recently.

Pamela’s probably taking the time to chill before her big eco fashion label debut, A*Muse, in New Zealand next week.

Contrary to what Olivia Munn says, vegan pizza doesn’t taste like poo and if you’re interested in doing pizza sans cheese, whether it’d be for health or ethical reasons, you just might find what you’re looking for at even a fast food restaurant.

Leaving the cheese off a Papa John’s for example, gives you a pizza with both the crust and sauce vegan.

Dominos has one of four crusts that are vegan, but is only available in select stores. It’s sauce is vegan too.

And Godfather’s pizza sauce and dough are vegan as well.

Michael Vick‘s return to the football field has sparked much animal activism, and Sally Andersen, guest blogger for vegdaily.com, was recently out and about promoting vegetarianism.

A woman approached Sally and said that although she had been a vegetarian in the past, she became a slacker and started eating meat again.

However, the whole Michael Vick dog fighting incident has made her rethink her decision and she’s going back to veg.

The woman stated:

“This whole thing with Michael Vick got me thinking about it again and reminded me why I became vegetarian in the first place. I am ready to go back.”

A positive spin can come out of anything!

Britain’s #2 squash player, James Willstrop, is starring in a vegetarian PSA, letting viewers know how they can “squash” obesity.

Yeah, this is sure to cause less controversy than that other obesity ad PETA put on a billboard.

“I had first heard about PETA through Morrissey actually,” Willstrop said.

“I’m very keen to support animals, and I liked what PETA were doing, so I got in touch because I wanted to make it known that meat is totally unnecessary, and detrimental, to a world-class athlete. People laugh at me when I tell them, and I can’t for one minute believe that so many people find it perfectly natural to mercilessly slaughter animals and devour them for their own gratification. I did it once, but having seen the atrocity that is the battery farm, I want to convey to people to stop and actually think that they are eating dead, slaughtered flesh that has been battered around, tortured and plied with nasty chemicals.”

New Yorkers will be heading to the polls tomorrow to cast their votes in the primary election.

Yetta Kurland, an openly vegan candidate for City Council, has received some props from singer-songwriter Nellie McKay in this PSA.

Kurland has championed for the rights of many, including animals and humans.

“She fights for civil rights for every person,” McKay says. “She fights for animal rights. And she fights for environmental justice.”

Jennifer Aniston was snapped carrying this FEED bag while on the set of The Bounty.

The FEED bags were designed by the lovely Lauren Bush (niece of George W.), a lifelong vegetarian, environmentalist, and humanitarian.

Which is why we’re confused as to why the straps of the bag are made with leather. Maybe Lauren wasn’t aware of the materials when the bag was constructed. Or could she not be as strict with fashion and vegetarianism?

Lauren designed the bags to help support the UN World Food Program.

Pictured here, the FEED 2, will feed 2 school children in Kenya for 1 year when purchased.

This weekend, stars flocked to the annual Animal Acres Gala for celebration.

Animal Acres is a non-profit animal advocacy organization that works to protect farmed animals through rescue and shelter, education, public outreach and investigating claims of abuse.

Ellen DeGeneres was this year’s honorary Gala chairperson and a host of celebrities, including emcee Hal Sparks, author Kathy Freston, actress Emily Deschanel and actor Ed Begley Jr. attended the celebration.

Drummer and author Bobby Rock received the “Compassion Into Action” award for his education efforts, which he said aren’t always easy when faced with the competition for meat and dairy advertisements people are bombarded with.

“It’s not easy, since the average kid gets 10,000 hits of animal agriculture through the media from hamburger commercials, to cheese from happy cows ads, to give eggs a break and we only get them for three hours,” Rock said.

Author of the Quantum Wellness books, Kathy Freston, was the recipient of the “Vegetarian Vision” Award.

Speaking of celebration, food always makes the party better and the Animal Acres Gala-a vegan catered event by Madeleine’s Bistro-was no different.

With menu items such as “Ham” ‘n cheese in filo, Mini mac and Philet-no-fish, you know thing’s had to taste good.
