Vegetarian Star

Chris Colfer is the Glee cast member we placed in the jerk category after he admitted he’d like to sneak some meat in vegan co-star Lea Michele‘s food.

Colfer seems to have a “beef” with vegetarians in general because he’s now admitting he blackmailed one in high school after learning she may have allegedly eaten meat on the down low.

Food fights may not have been common in your school cafeteria.

Definitely not in the choir room.

On the premiere of Glee, Lea Michele‘s character Rachael Berry gets blasted with a heap of spaghetti.

According to Rumor Fix, extras on the set were given spaghetti and meatballs and salad to throw at the cast, but Michele insisted firmly she only be hit with noodles, proving once again that real meat isn’t necessary for that Hollywood special effect.

Glee may have sustainable eating, veg-friendly actresses like Lea Michele and Jenna Ushkowitz in the cast, but the show could do a little better when it comes to greening the set. At least a recent episode featuring Gwyneth Paltrow as the substitute glee club leader in “The Substitute” could have.

In a behind the scenes clip, Zach Woodlee, co-producer/choreographer of the show estimates they went through 300 umbrellas or so to film a scene putting a modern twist on “Singing In The Rain” by adding some Rihanna lyrics to it. This was because the umbrellas kept breaking during different takes.

For the rest of the season, the cast is ordered to only buy eco-friendly umbrellas, made from things like recycled aluminum and steel, bamboo handles and 100% PET bottles like the Tot eco’Brella.

Then, maybe we’ll stand under their umbrellas, ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh.

Lea Michele‘s cast mate on Glee, Chris Colfer, joked about putting meat in one of her vegetarian dishes. Totally NOT funny, but the joke is on him and the rest of the cast because Michele once secretly gave the guys (and gals) on the set some cupcakes without telling them they were animal-free.

“I had vegan cupcakes on my birthday,” Michele said at PETA’s 30th Anniversary Gala. “Once you eat a vegan cupcake–I once put out vegan cupcakes for the whole crew and didn’t tell them that they were vegan. And they were like, those are the best cupcakes I ever had. And then the next day I was like ‘They were vegan. See, you can eat vegan food.’”

Jane Lynch, who plays the cunning and caustic cheerleading coach on the Fox television series Glee, would rather beat the crap out of Vocal Adrenaline than an animal.

Her character, Sue Sylvester, had a few lines on the Mash Up episode that originally threatened Glee coach Will Schuester by letting him bond with a cat before ending its life.

Um, yeah, even if this is television, that doesn’t belong in any conversation.

“I’m not going to say that,” Lynch said of her lines. “I work for PETA. I can’t say kill the cat.”

The script was changed to reflect adopting an animal from a shelter and punching Schuester instead. Nice work!

“I’ll need to see the set list for sectionals, after all. I want them on my desk warm from the laminator at 5 p.m. If it is one minute late, I will go to the animal shelter and get you a kitty cat. I will let you fall in love with that kitty cat. And then on some dark, cold night, I will steal away into your home and punch you in the face.”

Reports are that Glee star Lea Michele is acting all diva and bitchy on the set.

“Lea acts like she’s better than the rest of the cast,” a source told US Magazine.

Another source said, “She’s sweet, but she has her moments,” while yet another mentioned “she has become super-strict about her diet. She is a vegan now and says she hasn’t eaten cheese in a year!”‘

Duh! Hence the reason for the bitchiness.

If you’ve been a good boy or girl and know cheese is nothing but the product of whoring out cows that live only a 1/5 of their natural lifespan, not to mention the environmental impact of those same whores passing gas on dairy farms, you might have some “moments” of your own after giving up such an addictive and admittedly tasty product.

In walks vegan cheese to soothe yourself and everyone around you.

From soy based to rice based to nut cheese, there’s a block, bag of shreds or log to fulfill you when you need it. Check out this extensive list of vegan cheeses featuring products available at both the grocery store and online.

It’s been a year. It’s time. No one should go through that kind of dry spell.
