Vegetarian Star

Stella McCartney just revealed she thinks her mom was one of the greatest in the world.

Not only does Stella admire Linda McCartney, but she aims to be just as free-spirited and compassionate about all life just like dear ol’ mom.

Stella told Harper’s Bazaar:

“She had a strong voice and was very ahead of her time. The connection she made between how people treat animals and the environment is proving to be very significant.”

Stella probably “borrowed” a few things from her mom’s closet now and then.

“I love the way my mother wore clothes. She used to always cut her own hair and wore very little make-up, and she just did things differently. She used to wear odd socks but then she also wore beautiful suits and little dresses with platform shoes. That is sort of how people dress now, so she was very modern and ahead of her time.”

Do you have a parent who influenced your veg lifestyle decisions tremendously?

Treehugger has compiled a list of their favorite celebrity green businesses and vegan star Heather Mills made the cut.

Not only does Heather run her little vegan cafe and restaurant in the UK called V Bites, she also recently purchased Redwood Wholesale Foods.

And that just makes Heather greenalicious!

From Treehugger.com:

“Last month we reported that Heather Mills opened Vbites Café, a seaside vegan establishment in the U.K. offering unique meatless meats and vegan favorites–accompanied by vegan and organic wines and beers. At the time, we had also caught wind of a potential new vegan frozen food business. While we at TreeHugger were skeptical over the motives, Heather Mills’ Web site now confirms that Mills is indeed the new owner of U.K.-based Redwood Wholesale Foods. And she isn’t stopping there: The company hopes to soon bring their meat-free brands to the U.S. for distribution.”

It’s no surprise a vegetarian business made the eco cut.

Meat’s not green and never has been.

Go Heather for making green so darn tasty!

So Alicia Silverstone has a vegan diet book coming out in October. You know what that means.

The Skinny Bitches have some competition!

Rory Freedman had a head start with Skinny Bitches in the kitchen, the uterus, and skinny bastards to back her up.

But could Silverstone gain some ground with A Kind Diet?

Between the two vegan diet book authors, who would you rather…

Everyone’s favorite vegan girl, Alicia Silverstone, recently sat down with Health magazine where she discussed her upcoming vegan diet book, A Kind Diet, as well as her vegan lifestyle in general.

Here are a few excerpts:

On The Kind Diet Book:
“I’m excited about presenting something that can make you feel amazing and look your best. Once you’re informed, then you can be really gentle and kind to yourself, by giving yourself all the gifts life has to offer—like mental clarity and vitality—all while making the planet better”

The Role A Vegan Diet Played in her weightloss:
“Diet first, exercise second. Exercise is fantastic, and when I need to be a certain way quickly, I amp up my exercise by walking the dogs and doing yoga.”

How The Right Foods Make You “Juicy”:
You can hear your needs and desires more clearly. You’re just more juicy—there’s just this lightness that happens.

Ah, the changing of the seasons.

Colored falling leaves, brisk temperatures, and a good excuse to buy a new leather-free handbag!

Vegetarian fashion designer Stella McCartney has a few goodies coming our for the fall, including the four featured here.

Starting from the top left are the Piercing Convert Shoulder Bag, The Piercing Tote, and The Appaloosa Shoulder Tote, and The Piercing Ruffel Satchel.

Stella’s bags are never at bargain prices (the ones featured above are in the $1,000 range), but she has her niche of fashion savvy fans willing to pay the price so animals don’t have too.

All of the above bags can be ordered through Bergdorf Goodman.

If you have the pocket book size for it, you should consider patronizing them, since they have their share of leather goods (Prada) on the site as well.

How else are we to encourage these guys to stock up on more hideless accessories?

Chrissie Hynde and her Pretender crew was originally scheduled to perform at the Minneapolis Zoo.

However, that show was canceled and the concert promoter cited numerous reasons for doing so such as crowd size and zoo curfew.

Now, Chrissie’s getting the chance to talk about how she really felt about the zoo show.

Psst. We think the cancellation had a little more to do with Chrissie’s values.

After asking people at PETA to research the zoo thoroughly, Chrissie learned some of the animals are eventually sold for slaughter.

Uncool. Very uncool.

From popmatters.com:

“That’s how I decided not to play there. I thought it would disturb the animals anyway. As zoos go, they have some really good policies. But I’m not zoo-friendly myself. I actually had people calling and complaining about it being at the zoo before I knew it was at a zoo. It wasn’t just me.”

Fred Mascherino, ex Taking Back Sunday guitarist and singer recently spoke with phillyist.com about how he gets his grub on while touring.

Apparently, there are a few places that probably know Fred by name as they’re on his radar when he’s in the cities.

“…I’ve spent more time on the road than at home the last several years, I’ve come up with my little… I know what state I’m in and where there is to eat there. In Baltimore there’s the Paper Moon Diner. In Boston there’s Grasshopper and there’s this vegetarian hot dog joint I always go to. In Austin, Texas, there’s a Thai place I love. So I get to know these places; I’m out [on the road] so much that I kind of memorize all these places that I like to eat”

Fred’s little black book of veggie restaurants seems to cover a lot of ground.

Sounds as if this guy’s never without a dinner date.

Vegetarian Queen rocker Brian May recently took the opportunity to give animal rights a promo on his website.

The guitarist praised The World Society of the Protection of Animals (WSPA) Animals Matter To Me campaign.

“Animals Matter To Me represents the biggest ever global animal welfare initiative, linking the entire animal welfare movement with ONE STRATEGIC GOAL: global recognition that animals are sentient beings, capable of feeling pain and suffering,” writes May.

The goal of “Animals Matter To Me” is to get 10 million signatures to be handed to government officials around the world, urging for a Universal Declaration on Animal Welfare at the United Nations.

Hey, if you can play guitar in a band that spent more weeks on the UK album charts than the Beatles or Elvis Presley, helping to round up 10 million signatures should be no problem!
