Vegetarian Star

The Smiths have a slim chance of getting back together, but Johnny Marr and Morrissey were great then and now.

Both vegetarians, Johnny was labeled the “bad boy” during the band’s stint, while Morrissey was the focused dude who never brought a groupie to his hotel room.

They complimented each other beautifully during the song Meat Is Murder.

So between the two former Smiths members, who would you rather…

When Johnny Marr and Morrissey were together for The Smiths (something that will probably never happen again unless Morrissey eats his genitals), the media portrayed each of them as opposite stereotypes.

“That all started with the Smiths,” Marr told the Daily Mail. “Morrissey was meant to be all about vegetarianism, celibacy and Virginia Woolf. I was all about football, clothes and a bit of pot-smoking. That’s very reductive. If people bought into that, I don’t blame anyone but myself. If you’re in a successful band, you tend to fall into a role.”

“…I’m not remotely laddish. I’m a grown-up. I’m vegan and teetotal. I run 50 miles a week, listening to Franz Ferdinand and the Four Tops at top volume.”

With all the stories of celebrities falling to drugs recently, it’s great that Johnny is publicly talking about what a clean life he lives.

Who needs drugs when you can have hot sauce on seitan?

Actress Eva Mendes (Hitch, Ghost Rider) has worn her birthday suit for PETA in the past and now she wants Morrissey to join her.

“I really want to do a PETA ad with Morrissey, I’d be happy to do it naked if need be.”

Although she is willing to show her buns for animal rights, she’s not sure if she should expect full frontal from the former singer of The Smiths.

“Whether Morrissey would want to get naked with me is another question. Maybe he could come up with something more creative than out-and-out nudity.”

Like maybe a fake chik’n patty covering up the essential parts?

Morrissey is an avid supporter of PETA as well as a vegan, so teaming up for the cause makes sense.

Mendes said she’s had a crush on Morrissey ever since she discovered The Smiths.

Morrissey, who is rumored to be talking to former Smiths member Johnny Marr about a reunion, is being presented with a lot of decisions lately. Reunionize with the boys, get naked with the girl…Tough choices, but someone’s gotta make them.

Gossip has been taking place over the internet for some time about the 80s English Rock band The Smiths reforming for a reunion. But Morrissey has in the past denied having a happily ever after renewal of vows with Johnny Marr and the others.

“I’d rather eat my own testicles than reform The Smiths – and that’s saying something coming from a vegetarian,” he was once quoted as saying.

Wonder if he likes barbecue or sweet and sour with those jewels?

Before we gross you out even more with our junior high school humor, we should tell you that a source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper:

“The very fact they are talking again is the most hopeful thing in years. The industry has been buoyant with talk of them getting back together.

“A lot of people think of them as the best thing since The Beatles. They’d fill stadiums many times over.”

Reforming could be a good thing for Morrissey, who is so strict about his diet he even prohibits his employees from eating meat while on tour.

There’s power in numbers. With Johnny and and his entire band backing him up singing Meat Is Murder, Morrissey might get his wish to have the beef and pork selling food booths turned into tofu kabob ones.

“I’d rather eat my own testicles than reform the Smiths, and that’s saying something for a vegetarian.”

—-Morrissey, to Uncut Magazine, on getting back together on stage with The Smiths, a band he and Johnny Marr, rocked with in the 80s. The band supposedly broke up due to a lot of bickering between he and Johnny. Bummer. They couldn’t even find their veg lovin’ as common ground to stay together.

On another interesting note, Morrissey, once responded to the opening of a new animal research lab by saying, “If you like vivisection, go and be vivsectioned upon yourselves.” Eating one’s own, uh, reproductive goodies, comes pretty close to that.

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure – the privilege is mine

Whoa! Even the most angst filled emo teen would probably turn off that one. But for some reason, we have staff that really dig the 80s song, “There is a light that never goes out,” by The Smiths. Quote from guitarist Johnny Marr:

“I’ve been a vegetarian since my teens. It would’ve been pretty tough to be singing Meat is Murder with The Smiths while stuffing down burgers in your spare time.”
