Frank Iero Demonstrates His Macbeth Cancer Fighting Shoes

Written by Vegetarian Star on Sunday, March 1st, 2009 in Fashion, Male Musicians, Male Singers, Videos.

Not long ago, we told you how Frank Iero of My Chemical Romance and LeATHERMOUTH designed some vegan shoes for MacBeth that included anatomically correct figures and instructions showing men and women how to check for and prevent testicular and breast cancer.

Here’s a video of Frank personally introducing the shoe in which portions of the sales go to the Syrentha Savio Endowment, a non-profit organization that works to fight breast cancer.

Frank shows where and how to cut the shoe to reveal his “artwork.”

There are two versions of the shoe, rated G and PG-13, depending on if you want to “fight” cancer, or use a more color expression, as you can see from the still frame of the video. 

Franks jokes he hopes you like it, but if you don’t, don’t tell him.

We’ll clear the air of any suspicion: We like them!

From Stray Cats To Spayed Cats, Meatloaf Needs Lentils In Name

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 in Bands.

2009 MusiCares

We’ve already stated our position on asking a man to change his name for a PETA campaign. Now it looks like PETA Jr., or peta2.org, is doing the same thing, and created a list of bands that should change their names from animal unfriendly to friendly ones.

We agree there are some bands out there with names that sound oh so ugly to the vegetarian’s ear. What’s worse is that some of these bands are vegetarian!

Frank Iero, MacBeth vegan shoe boy, is in a band called Leathermouth. Ewww! Peta2 thinks “Pleathermouth” is better for the image. Please pass this on to their agents.

Meatloaf, who at least once dabbled in vegetarianism, could sell more albums to vegans if he called himself “Lentil Loaf.”

The creepiest of all? Cattle Decapitation, a death metal band full of vegetarians, who PETA thinks should rename themselves “Cattle Appreciation.” Cattle Decapitation? We’re with you on that one, PETA!

We can’t forget that caring for animals is just as important as not eating them, and the Stray Cats are overpopulating the music scene. Please takes those guys to the vet, so they can be the “Spayed Cats.”

For the remaining list of bands who should undergo name overhaul, visit peta2.org.
