Vegetarian Star

Mayim Bialik is getting more than her 15 minutes of rediscovered fame with tons of interviews and a brand new makeover.

The former Blossom star has talked about her vegetarian diet before, and spoke with Celebrity Baby Blog again recently about some of the vegetarian and natural things she does in her household.

Mayim describes the fam as a “non-obnoxious” green one, (in contrast to the Goodes?) that share beds, make their own shampoo, granola, and cleaning products.

And while Mayim follows a vegetarian diet, the house isn’t completely veggie-just kosher with vegan options.

“I’m technically a vegan, but I do eat egg if it’s in things. And that’s how we raise Miles, too. I cook meat for my husband, which is Kosher, but we don’t have a vegan house, just Kosher house that has vegan options for everyone.”

If you tuned in to TLC last night, you saw the lovely Mayim Bialik get a brand new look.

Apparently, the Blossom sitcom series star had still been wearing the frumpy 90s clothing she wore back in the days when Stacy London and Clinton Kelly cornered her and said, “It’s time for a change!”

A change it was, as Mayim was able to find some awesome vegan Doc Martens, as well as shop in environmentally conscious stores that sold sustainable clothing.

“I’m a vegan, and they found a lot of eco-conscious boutiques with hemp material, so that was great,” Mayim told The New York Post.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the hempest of them all? Probably The Hempest clothing shop complete with men’s and women’s clothing, as well as handbags and other accessories. If you’re in need of a hip hemp makeover, you might want to make a stop there online. 

Watch the clip to see Mayim get ticketed by the TLC fashion police.

Mayim Bialik had the privilege of receiving a makeover compliments of the team at What Not To Wear.

Although Mayim’s said before she’d never call herself completely vegan, she does try to avoid leather. Mayim used to take it a bit further and avoid products that even looked like leather.

From celebrity-babies.com:

“They made me throw out my Doc Martens, but when we went to the vegan shoe store in Manhattan they had vegan Doc Martens, so I may have to indulge! My policy used to be that I didn’t like to wear shoes that looked like leather, even if they weren’t, but I let that go, because my feeling is if they aren’t leather, then it’s OK for them to look leather. I gave them so many limitations with my rules on bold colors, pants, frills, so I figured I’d wear vegan shoes that look like leather.”

Some people refuse to wear fake fur for the same reason. What’s your take on the situation? Should vegetarians and vegans avoid wearing lookalikes because they give the wrong impression?

Mayim Bialik entertained adolescents in the early 90s on the NBC sitcom, Blossom, with wild looking vintage store outfits, frank discussions about issues like puberty, and a recovering drug addict brother named Joey with an obsessive tendency to use his catch phrase, “Whoa,” one time too many.

Mayim is all grown up now, with a PhD in neuroscience (read about her work on Prader-Willi syndrome) and quite active with her Jewish faith and in the Jewish community. 

She recently interviewed with Jewcy.com, where she admitted it’s hard to classify herself, both faithwise and diet.

“I’m hesitant to label myself or call myself Orthodox because people will be like, “Celebrity Mayim Bialik says she does X, but I saw her doing Y” – I guess, to be safe, I would say I’m Conservative, but in reality, I’d say Conservadox. But my husband and I have definitely increased our observance over the years, and we’re always trying to grow.”

“We kinda do the Big Three [Shabbos, keeping kosher, and family purity], but it’s hard. I mean, it’s hard for everyone to classify themselves, but it’s a whole new level of hard when people are watching you. Like, I pretty much eat a vegan diet, but I eat eggs if they’re in things. What I say is, I eat a mostly vegan diet, and that’s kind of how it is with Judaism. We keep Shabbos, we keep kosher, and I don’t know if people want to hear about the Mikveh, but, um, yeah.”
