Vegetarian Star

“Well, we’re really not too concerned about what people think about us because our clients happen to be whales and sharks and sea turtles and fish. So you know, we do what we do, and people either like it, or they don’t like it. They either like it passionately or they dislike us intensely. What we do out there is simply go out and intervene against illegal activities. We aren’t a protest group. What we are is an interventionist group. And we’ve never hurt anybody, but we’re quite aggressive.”

—-Captain Paul Watson, founder of Sea Shepherd Conservation and Whale Wars star on how the public reacts to some of the Sea Shepherd’s tactics to thwart Japanese hunters from killing whales.

The Zookeeper, a movie about a man who wins a lady’s love, recently began filming.

The company Birds & Animals Unlimited has been contracted to supply animals for the film, although PETA alleges it has a rap sheet of USDA violations longer than a giraffe’s neck.

PETA has taken the opportunity to write to Rosario Dawson, Adam Sandler, Cher and Sylvester Stallone asking them not to use the company’s services.

“We’re hoping to enlist the film’s stars to keep cruelty off the set,” said PETA spokesperson Amanda Schinke.

“Exotic animals used as involuntary ‘actors’ are routinely subjected to rigorous and abusive training methods to coerce them into performing acts that are stressful, uncomfortable, confusing and even painful.”

Even better, PETA suggests The Zookeeper crew take advantage of modern technology such as computer generated imagery.

A spokesperson for the animal rights group, Debbie Leahy said, “When it comes to exotic animal characters, the best casting choice is to ‘fake it.’ Even under the best of circumstances, captivity can be hell for exotic animals.”

Strange events occur in the Beckham’s kitchen.

Victoria Beckham, has claimed to be a vegetarian who still cooks meat for her husband and kids.

“The only thing I can cook really is mince meat, which is ironic because I’m a vegetarian.”

Now, we’re learning that David is helping with the domestic chores as well-which include making one of Victoria’s favorite dishes of prawns.

According to splashnewsonline.celebuzz.com, David says:

“My signature dish for Victoria is grilled prawns or lobster and fresh vegetables.”

Unless Mrs. Posh Spice likes to look at the dead grilled prawns while eating her meatless pasta, she ain’t exactly vegetarian.

And after learning of all the half-assed vegetarian celebrities, we have little hope Victoria munches on Vegan King Prawns.

Sigh…

Another star who needs a vocabulary lesson.

It’s pescatarian, Victoria.

You already know the desserts at Erin McKenna’s BabyCakes bakery are vegan and made with good for you ingredients like coconut oil.

Now, notable photographer Ryan McGinley shows they can be incorporated into a “healthy” New Yorker’s diet.

McGinley recently described his cupcake experience with Michael Stipe in the New York magazine weekly article, The New York Diet.

Apparently Babycakes cupcakes, coconut water, and vodka make a great balanced dinner.

“For dinner, at 8 p.m. I had cupcakes from Babycakes at Michael Stipe’s new apartment. It was a pre-housewarming, pre-curtains-on-the-windows party; he hadn’t been in town for three months. We drank coconut water and vodka…That was sort of dinner-ish.”

If you’re concerned about Ryan’s nutritional deficiencies, you’ll be happy to know he had another “dinner” at 3A.M, which consisted of a salad of arugula, roasted beets, tomatoes, green beans, new potatoes, broccoli, red onions, zucchini, and fresh fennel,  along with ravioli with ricotta.

Joining dozens of other musicians, including Billy Coragan and Jimmy Chamberlin, Third Eye Blind’s lead singer and guitarist Stephen Jenkins has given Kentucky Fried Chicken the thumbs down.

Jenkins signed the petition PETA has against KFC due to the way chickens used by the fast food franchise are handled during and before slaughter.

The pledge Stephen and other celebrities have signed against KFC reads as follows:

“Each year, roughly 1 billion chickens raised for KFC suffer from extremely crowded conditions, crippling bone and joint problems resulting from top-heavy breeding, callous handling, inhumane slaughter techniques, and shortened life spans. Because chickens are intelligent and sensitive animals with strong social bonds, I urge David Novak and KFC to address these issues with urgency and negotiate with PETA to improve the lives of these animals.”

KFC has made and is still working towards improvements in its Canadian restaurants, and even offers a vegan chicken sandwich there.

Both Prince Fielder and Tony LaRussa have big balls.

Big baseBALLS, that is.

LaRussa is the manager of the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team and co-founded the Animal Rescue Foundation with the wifey.

Prince Fielder became vegetarian after his wife gave him permission to be with a Skinny Bitch and he recently showed the world how meatless men do it by winning the All Star Home Derby competition and setting a record for the longest home run-over 500 feet!

So between the two vegetarian men, who would you rather…

All you East Coast BabyCakes vegan bakery fans, listen up!

Do you have a sister, brother, or cousin in California that keeps bugging the crap out of you to send some of those vegan, gluten-free cupcakes and cookies to their West Coast pad?

Soon you’ll be able to stop answering their phone calls and text them a little message that reads, “Get it yourself!” as owner Erin McKenna plans to expand her New York city bakery to downtown Los Angeles.

From a recent interview with vegnews.com:

VegNews: What made you choose LA?
Erin McKenna: We noticed most of our shipments were headed to Los Angeles, and realized the bakery was exactly what LA needed. [BabyCakes NYC] will be located on 6th and Main, which is downtown. We really love how eclectic it is down there—lots of creativity and diversity. Plus, the buildings are old so we feel at home.

VN: How will you split your time between the two locations?
EM: I’ll be mostly in LA for the first six months until I think the bakery is ready to lose its training wheels. I’m afraid I’m going to miss New York, but I’ll be enjoying the sunshine and laidback vibe of LA. I have my core staff already hired, but I’ll be looking for frosting boys and girls! Positive attitude is a must!

Also an advertisement for photoshopping, the latest PETA anti-fur ad features actress Nia Long in her birthday suit on the subway.

Seems like the photoshop user got a little crazy and wiped away her belly button. And chiseled off some of her calf.

Were they trying to emphasize how animals are skinned to get fur by scraping away some of Nia?

“Be comfortable in your own skin,” reads the ad. “And let animals keep theirs.”

The actress who’s had roles in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Third Watch, and Are We There Yet?  has given up some of her flesh. Now, there’s no reason for an animal to give any of theirs.
