Although Ginnifer Goodwin used to be a cheeseburger lover, she doesn’t crave those anymore. But that doesn’t mean cares if someone else does. From the editor’s blog at W magazine:

“So many people say to me, ‘I tried, and it was too hard,’ or ‘I had to cheat,’ and I always think, ‘Then it’s not right for you,'” Ginnifer said.

“You shouldn’t have to try. For me there’s no “try” involved. There’s nothing I want less than a piece of cheese or a burger. I have nightmares I’m being force-fed these things. I have no interest in converting anyone. It’s purely how I want to live my life. I don’t judge anyone.”

Ginnifer took some flack for posing in leather and silk for the W magazine shoot, which her cousin and Humane Society of the United States coordinator, JP Goodwin, explained to readers in the comments section on a post at supervegan.com.

What do you guys think of judgemental vegans? Should people make more effort to educate and change the diet of others. Or will this only turn people away?

Ginnifer Goodwin Reveals Moment She Gave Up Dairy

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, May 15th, 2009 in Actresses.

Celebs at the Metropolitan OperaWe all remember that pivotal point in our lives when we turned vegetarian or vegan. Whether it was one last Thanksgiving meal or getting sick from a bad cheesy dish or watching a documentary on animal cruelty, the decision to go veg is often as memorable as first jobs or wedding dates.

Big Love and He’s Just Not That Into You actress Ginnifer Goodwin explained to W magazine’s editor what her defining moment for veganism was.

“We were filming the road trip episode of this season’s Big Love and we were staying in a hotel. I was doing a lot–and I mean a lot—of yoga at the time, and I’ve heard it’s not uncommon for something like this to happen when you are in a stage like that. Anyway, I was having my morning coffee, and I was pouring milk into it, and all I can say is that I suddenly realized what it was that I was pouring into my coffee. I was so disgusted, because I had never actually stopped to think about what milk is. And dairy had always been my favorite food group! I thought, ‘Surely this feeling will pass,’ but at lunchtime I was still disgusted. Over the next few days, I started really thinking about what I was eating.”

Can you remember the exact event that served as the catalyst for you go to go veg?

Anna Paquin, Ginnifer Goodwin On HBO’s Veggie Hotties List

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, March 2nd, 2009 in Actresses.

2009 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Graydon Carter - Arrivals

HBO must be the TV station for veggie hotties.  

It’s home to vegan Ginnifer Goodwin’s “Big Love” as well as True Blood ,where vegetarian Anna Paquin stars as a waitress who’s got a biting taste for a vampire (unknown if he’s a vegetarian vampire) played by Stephen Moyer.

Apparently, Stephen can’t get enough blood onscreen because the two are dating in real life.

She and Ginnifer Goodwin are featured in a gallery, The Fit 5: Tips to Feel (and Look) Like a Star, with each celebrity exhibiting some characteristic that can help anyone stay fit.

It’s a no brainer that a veg diet can keep you looking good and healthy, so it’s no surprise two of our favorite veggie gals made the list.

Along with following a meatless diet, Anna is into boxing, plyometrics (exercises including bounding and jumping) and weight work. Perhaps that’s why she’s listed under the “Become a Warrior,” tip for getting in shape.

Ginnifer, who’s an example of “Lighten up your diet,” was quoted as saying, “I don’t eat animal products. So everything is working a little better.”

Browse the entire gallery at People to gain a few other tips for getting and staying fit.

Ginnifer Goodwin Is Just That Into Being Vegan: Big Love To Her!

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, February 6th, 2009 in Actresses.

He's Just Not That Into You Los Angeles Premiere

We told you earlier that Ginnifer Goodwin was spotted picking up a take-out at Vegan Glory restaurant. Now it is confirmed, and unless you watched Conan O’Brien last night, this could be one of the first places you heard it from.

Ginnifer Goodwin is vegan!

The actress who’s new movie, He’s Just Not That Into You, premiers today, appeared on Conan O’Brien last night where she expressed how much she loved being a vegan.

“It’s amazing,” she said of her recent decision. “I don’t need drugs. There’s a party in my body. Every thing’s working appropriately.” She also suggests that if Conan were vegan, they could have parties in their bodies together.

Funny, as Conan brought it up, he said he wanted to touch an area of her personal life that was less sexy (than her role in HBO’s Big Love). Has he watched the Veggie Love video yet?

He jokingly gives her grief when she mentions different types of vegan cheese, asking her if they could make cheese out of anything, including microphones.

You can watch the episode of Conan and Goodwin, with Ginnifer’s appearance starting around minute 28.
