Heather Mills Blasts Jamie Oliver For Male Calf Castration

Vegan Heather Mills isn’t showing any love for fellow Brit Jamie Oliver.

The celebrity chef recently castrated a male calf and ate its testicles on his television show Jamie’s American Road Trip.

And Jamie’s show doesn’t involve any reality TV eating challenges, either.

Using the power of the Twitter, Heather wrote:

“I’m horrified watching Jamie Oliver castrate calves and eat their b*****ks, how low can you go, he says they taste like Scampi!”

Director of Animal Aid, Andrew Taylor, agrees with Heather.

“The public is convinced Jamie Oliver is the real deal but hopefully this barbaric act will open their eyes to the fact he is a phony when it comes to animal welfare,” Taylor said. “He pretends he cares about animals but this makes an utter mockery of that. Castrating cattle in this way is vicious and grotesque and he’s giving credibility to an ugly trade. If he thinks this is good prime time TV he has been duped.”

Jamie’s rep defended the chef’s actions by saying the show is meant to show the British public the different aspects of American cuisine and life.

A regular part of American cuisine and life? That’s it! Cow testicles must have been the “mystery meat” in your school lunches growing up.

“Jamie is on his American road trip to observe and to learn and to show the viewing public some parts of America they might not know about. Jamie is well-known for his championing of better welfare for animals and has had awards from many animal welfare groups.”

Guess Jamie thinks his awards are a free get out of animal cruelty jail pass.

Stella McCartney Shop Celebrates Fashion Night Out

Actress Kate Hudson hangs out at the Stella McCartney Store in NYC to celebrate Fashion’s Night Out, an evening meant to encourage shopping and pour money back into the economy.

The Stella McCartney store not only encouraged a sustainable economy, but sustainable eating as well.

A vegetarian food truck was on hand to provide meatless goodies and drinks to shoppers.

Think Kate enjoyed some vegetarian finger food?

And where is A-Rod, anyway? The K-Rod pact cannot be broken up for longer than, like, 10 minutes…

Rapper MURS took time to Tweet before grabbing some vegan food and taking some much needed R & R.

“tuck tuck tiggiddy tuckered out. going home for a nap. after a vegan chilli dog stop.”

A vegan chili dog sounds pretty easy to whip up.

After all, how hard can it be to grab some veg chili, slop it on a wiener, and place it between a bun?

We can’t get enough of Lightlife Smart Chili, which comes in pouch form, ready to heat in the microwave and serve.

While you’re in territory Lightlife, grab one of their many varieties of vegan hot dogs from Tofu Pups to Smart Dogs to Smart Dogs Jumbo-if you like your wieners big.

Grab a bun and top with fixings…There’s never been a recipe more convenient or tastier.

Exactly what you need during those tuckered out times.

Michelle Forbes On “True Blood” 2 Finale: Meat Tree Was Repulsive

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, September 10th, 2009 in Actresses, Film & TV, Videos.

SyFy / Entertainment Weekly Party

We recently learned that True Blood star Michelle Forbes has been a vegetarian for a long time-30 years!

So when it came time to film the season 2 finale of True Blood, Michelle was a little queasy about the set surroundings when it came to the “Meat Tree.”

Some bits from trueblood-online.com:

I assume you weren’t cutting into an actual human heart. Please tell me you weren’t.
Michelle: No, no. I’m not sure what it was, but we all got creeped out when I cut into it because it made the worst squishing sound in the world. The irony is that I’m a 30-year vegetarian. I’ve been an animal activist my entire life, so the role of Maryann has been a bit challenging – especially with the lovely meat tree – Di-meat-tree, as he became known.

That tree is repulsive. Tell us about it.
Michelle: It was filled with real meat and reeked as the weeks wore on. There are bobcats and coyotes roaming around that ranch where we shoot, so they had someone sit by the tree with a gun at night to protect it.

Real meat? Men willing and able to shoot and kill more animals to protect the already dead ones?

True-ly uncool, especially since fake meat props would be easy to create, as such was done with the vampire horror flick Moby starred in, Suck.

Here’s the promo for True Blood Season 2 finale, which airs September 13 on HBO at 9PM.

Janet Jackson has come public with the first interview since her brother Michael Jackson died in June.

In the October issue of Harper’s Bazaar, Janet discusses how her and Michael would find the time to have vegetarian lunches together, during the filming of the 1995 music video Scream.

“We would organize our days together and go out for vegetarian lunch at the Golden Temple in L.A.,” Janet said. “We were so busy, but we’d make time.”

Several stories have touched on Michael Jackson’s vegetarian diet, along with the occasional fried chicken (argh!) that he would have when he cheated.

Jenny McCarthy Vegan: Rachael Ray Block Party Announcement

Jenny McCarthy Hosts An Evening At Pure

Surprising news of all news.

Jenny McCarthy has publicly stated that she’s a vegan.

Celebrity chef Rachael Ray threw a Big Block Party in Jenny’s hometown of Chicago, Illinois to kick off her 4th season of the Rachael Ray Show that will air September 14 at 10 AM.

According to chicagotribune.com, Jenny and Rachael engaged in some chit chat and Jenny made suggestions for her hometown favorite foods.

Jenny recommended pizza from Giordanos.

“You’ve got to try the sausage one,” McCarthy suggested, “even though I’m now vegan.”

Hopefully, Jenny knows what vegan means and she’s not one of those chicken eating vegetarians like Eve.

Jenny has been outspoken on autism and her son, and some people believe switching an autistic child to a vegan, gluten-free diet improves symptoms.

Jenny has even recommended vegan, gluten-free Nana’s Cookies as one of her preferred products.

Could this have been a factor in Jenny’s switch?

All we can say is great for her, hope she keeps it up.

Now, let’s work on that animal killing Botox issue.

The Smiths have a slim chance of getting back together, but Johnny Marr and Morrissey were great then and now.

Both vegetarians, Johnny was labeled the “bad boy” during the band’s stint, while Morrissey was the focused dude who never brought a groupie to his hotel room.

They complimented each other beautifully during the song Meat Is Murder.

So between the two former Smiths members, who would you rather…
