Tobey Maguire And Ruby Enjoy Real Happy Food At Real Food Daily

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Actors, Children, Food & Drink.

**EXCLISUVE** Tobey Maguire spends some quality time with daughter Ruby Sweetheart and a friend in LA

If you crawl up buildings like Spiderman to stalk Tobey Maguire, then you should be crawling along Real Food Daily often, as this man never seems to get enough of it.

The actor who’s expecting another baby with his wife Jennifer Meyer this spring was spotted with his daughter, Ruby, and a friend picking up some food from the vegan restaurant.

Looks like Ruby had a ton of fun!

So awesome that little Ruby is getting to experience healthy eating with dad at such a young age. In a world where kids think a Happy Meal is one of the basic food groups, good to know Ruby’s growing up with the good stuff.

Andy Serkis Won’t Use Rings Of Force On Children

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, February 10th, 2009 in Actors, Children, Food & Drink.

Andy Serkis is one of those fish eating vegetarians (thanks to playing Gollum while filming Lord of the Rings in New Zealand), who used to be completely vegetarian, but like Diane Keaton, isn’t forcing the lifestyle on his children.

“We [he and his wife] tried to bring our children up vegetarian and it was fine until they start mixing with other kids and going back to the houses and having hot dogs,” he told Babble.

“Rather than kind of going “You’re not going to eat hot dogs,” we said they can wait until they can make their mind up and let them decide where they want to go. It’s kind of pointless to push them at this point. I know that there are great parents who are very good and manage that side of it well, but that’s not the way it’s gone for us.”

At least he and his wife won’t have to worry about raising any Aisha Tylers.

The actor plays a villain named Capricorn who escapes the fantasy world of storybooks and enters reality in his most recent movie Inkheart.

Cybill Shepherd Tried Faking It

Rachael Ray Welcomes Cybill Shepherd To Her Show

Recently Bruce Springsteen announced he regrets making a deal with Wal-Mart to exclusively sell his Greatest Hits CD because the company has so many issues with workers’ rights, something he’s long been a champion for.

Springsteen isn’t the first celebrity to sign an inappropriate pact with a company who’s practices differ from their own.

Cybill Shepherd, best known for her role starring alongside Bruce Willis on the ABC 80s drama Moonlighting, agreed to promote eating meat for the Beef Industry Council in back in 1987.

The slogan was  “Real food for real people!” Sounds like someone did a spin-off of that 20 years later when designing the t-shirt Jessica Simpson once wore.

Cybill was removed from the campaign after she admitted she was a vegetarian. 

Hello? Why do the campaign to begin with?

Carrie Underwood Wants V-Day Home Cooked Vegetarian Meal

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, February 10th, 2009 in Female Singers, Food & Drink.

51st Annual Grammy Awards - Press Room

Valentine’s Day is approaching and if you haven’t bought your sweetie something nice or planned for the evening, it’s time to get moving.

Carrie Underwood, being the competitive go getter she is, had no problem spelling it out as to what she wanted for Valentine’s Day, according to KBS Radio.

“It’s nice to go out, occasionally, but it’s nice to stay in, too. I’m more of a stay-in, probably, kind of girl. And I’ve never had a guy cook for me. So I think it’d be really awesome if the guy just kind of, you know, put a lot of thought into it. . . made the atmosphere nice. Maybe light some candles or make some decorations or something to sit around, and make me a good meal, a home-cooked meal.”

“I’m a vegetarian, too, so you’d know, it’d be like he went through some thought and looked up a recipe that he figured I would like, and you know, complete with dessert, of course.”

Is she dropping a big hint to Ottawa Senators hockey player Mike Fisher, the latest male candy she’s been romantically linked to?

Model Melinda Messenger Proves Ice Makes You Hot

UK Film Premiere: Valkyrie - Arrivals

Suzanne Shaw is not the only Dancing on Ice contestant that knows a veggie diet’s good.

Model Melinda Messenger told the Swindon Advertiser how she’s dropped four dress sizes since she’s started her training for “Dancing on Ice”, a TV show in the UK where contestants do just that-dance in ice skates in the rink for the judges.

“I have never felt so physically fit and healthy, my skin is firmed and toned and I feel as though I have my 18-year-old body back,” Messenger said.

The grueling routine requires a top notch diet and Messenger stocks up on vegetarian foods like pasta, potatoes, and noodles when she’s training.

“I am a vegetarian so lots of healthy veg is great for keeping in shape.”

In a crazy world where people fear carbohydrates, it’s good to know Melinda recognizes keeping good complex carbs meat free is the secret to unlocking energy and staying fit.

Next time you’re hungry, follow Melinda’s direction and have some meatless meatballs over your spaghetti.

Some Fans Wouldn’t Read Carrie Underwood’s Food Journal

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, February 10th, 2009 in Female Singers, Food & Drink.

51st Annual Grammy Awards - Arrivals

Carrie Underwood was recently profiled on That’s Fit for her healthy eating habits and exercise routine.

Miss Underwood has been a vegetarian since 13 years of age, does a lot of cardio to stay fit, and practices what she calls “obsessive” food journaling, according to an interview with Glamour magazine.

Food journals are way people document what they’ve eaten and the nutritional content, cravings that come and go, and situations that made them eat more or less on a certain day.

While private journals of celebrities make for juicy reading info, you can bet if Carrie decided to publish hers, it wouldn’t sell well at bookstores in some states.

She said before that she’s learned to keep her vegetarianism to herself because in some parts of the country, when she’s announced she is one on stage during her performances, she gets booed.

Kristen Bell Likes Her Crock Pot

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, February 10th, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink, Not So Vegetarian.

The 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards - InStyle/Warner Bros. After Party - Arrivals

Actress Kristen Bell is really excited about the upcoming release of a new movie she’s in, Fanboys, where she plays a fanatic Star Wars fan.

But maybe not as excited as she is to cook with her crock pot.

The vegetarian actress revealed in an interview with Fandango that she’s even cooking meat…gasp…in it. Not to worry too much, as Kristen’s still veg all the way, but cooked something for her roommates:

“I’ve been really into using the crock pot lately, which is amazing because you can put anything fresh or frozen in there and it cooks for 10 hours and you have a stew. It’s fantastic! I actually cooked meat for the first time the other day. I made a dish that was somehow fried chicken with Italian dressing and A1 sauce. It was so weird and the reviews were stellar—I made it for my roommates and they really liked it. I didn’t eat it, but I figure it’s about time I learned to cook it.”

C’mom Kristen! Show your roommates how to really use that crock pot and cook up some veggie stews to serve alongside some seitan steak.

Wonder why she felt it was time to learn to cook meat? Does she anticipate having to cook meat for a future husband like Victoria Beckham does?
