Jennie Garth has an urban legend surrounding her much like Clint Eastwood did on his veganess.

The former “Beverly Hills 90210” actress and Dancing With the Stars contestant was recently interviewed by Energy Times, where she acknowledged the rumor, said she “hated eating animals,” but wasn’t a vegetarian.

“No, I’m not a true vegetarian,” she said. “I eat chicken and occasionally fish. I hate eating animals, but I have to get some protein in and the best way for me to do that would be to eat chicken or fish, although my kids eat tofu.”

“I don’t eat red meat.”

Hmm…You’d think that while she was sauteing tofu for the little ones, it’d be easy to fix herself a portion as well.

Heart disease runs rampant in the actress’ family and Jennie herself suffers from a leaky heart valve. While shunning red meat certainly helps her manage risk factors for heart troubles, there are numerous studies that show vegetarian and vegan diets prevent all sorts of diseases, including those that break the heart (physically).

Jennie is married to a “vegetarian vampire.” Her husband is Peter Facinelli, the guy who played Edward Cullen’s father, Dr. Carlisle Cullen, in the vampire movie Twilight. 

Wishing Jennie the best in managing her and her family’s health and hoping she has a tofu nugget or two to the replace the chicken ones she usually eats.

Paris Hilton’s Joke Vegetarian Birthday?

Paris Hilton is known for many things, but being vegetarian is not one of them.

However, USA Today printed an article recently wishing her a Happy Birthday, and the article said Paris was a vegetarian.

We guess along with pescetarian and flexitarian, there are now beef and pork slider vegetarians, as that’s what she was seen eating not along ago.

Either vegetarians are becoming more like some churches, changing the rules faster than lightening in order to attract and retain more members or someone picked up some incorrect information.

We suspiciously think there was some Clint Eastwood vegan urban legendness to this mistake.

The website, ParisHiltonZone.com, claims that Paris became vegetarian after watching a video on animal cruelty provided to her by Heather Mills.

“From that point I’ve never worn fur and I never will.”I also haven’t eaten any meat since. I just survive on pasta and stuff like that. I was grossed out. It was disgusting.”

Maybe Paris was a veg at one time, however short lived. Or maybe she’s a flexitarian?

Giving credit where it’s due, mom Kathy Hilton did buy Paris a faux fur for Christmas instead of the real thing, so maybe Paris at least isn’t down with wearing something that came from one of her chihuahua Tinkerbell’s cousins.
