The Independent has named their Best of Green and vegan actress Natalie Portman was chosen as the best green celebrity.

Although Natalie’s eco and animal friendly shoe line, Te Casan, was a failure, her successes in activism both through living and campaigning make her one of the best choices.

After being vegetarian for years, she finally made the switch to vegan after reading Jonathan Safran Foer‘s book, Eating Animals.

Her work in Rowanda highlighting the lives of gorillas only further strengthens her resume as a advocate of animals.

Not only does Natalie care about her own source of food, but she has brought the issue of childhood nutrition to the spotlight as well.

As if her diet weren’t eco friendly enough, Natalie is making the resolution to travel carbon neutral.

Natalie Portman appeared at the New York Times Arts and Leisure Weekend, wearing a slip dress from the Rodarte for Target collection.

Yes, that’s correct.

Natalie wore a Target dress with the price tag of only $39.99.

According to Glamour, this isn’t the first time Nat has been spotted in bargain clothing, as she wore a pair of $80 Aldo shoes at another red carpet event.

Who said vegan fashion was expensive!

Interview Magazine has named its pick for the 20 most beautiful people of the decade.

It was no doubt a tough decision, requiring committees of scientists, academics, legal experts and laypersons, but somehow Interview came to the conclusion that Natalie Portman is worthy of the title.

The Veg Star couldn’t agree more!

From Interviewmagazine.com:

“We’ve had her on our radar since she was the 12-year-old Lolita of The Professional. And somehow, her beauty has grown and grown over the past decade. Now 28, she’s won a Golden Globe, earned a psychology degree from Harvard, devoted her free time to social and political activism, and looked better than Demi with a shaved head. She’s even a vegan. Enough, really.”

Being vegan is great for your health, the planet and the animals, but can it really make you sexier?

Both Alanis Morissette and Woody Harrelson credit cutting dairy for making their skin smooth and Alicia Silverstone‘s beauty regime includes eating kale and swiss chard as much as daily moisturizing.

This New Year’s might be a great time to make the resolution to give veg a try.

Good luck on making People’s 50 Most Beautiful.

“Counter, Tagine — it isn’t really vegetarian, but it has great vegetarian dishes — Josie’s uptown, and Angelica Kitchen.”

—-Natalie Portman, at the Gotham Independent Film Awards, on her favorite NYC vegetarian restaurants.

Know who else digs Angelica Kitchen?

The faux meat is a gateway drug to vegetarianism bald star Moby, who said, “I’ve probably eaten there 2,000 times in my life.”

If you start now, you could at least hope to tie Moby’s record at Angelica.

When it comes to the catering, the more vegetarians the better to make it easier on everyone who chooses cauliflower over chicken.

Tobey Maguire and Natalie Portman star in Brothers, and the two not only got along well on screen, but during snack time as well.

When Natalie found out Tobey brought his own vegan chef to the set, she demanded that he share.

Natalie told marieclaire.com:

“Tobey Maguire brought his own vegan chef to the set. “I was like, ‘Um, could you make two of those?'”  “And I’d make a cute face, and they’d roll their eyes and give me another falafel.”

Although they say the camera adds 10 pounds, Natalie and Tobey probably never had to worry about finding bigger set clothes, since the vegan chef only served up the healthy stuff.

Wonder if Tobey convinced any other cast members to try a falafel from time to time?

Are jokes that make fun of vegans funny or offensive?

At the recent Gotham Independent Film Awards, Chris Rock jokingly called vegan Natalie Portman a “salad shooter.”

Innocent enough.

Natalie responded with a look that could kill without a slaughterhouse.

Relax, Nat.

At least everyone knows where you stand on health, animals and the planet.

And Chris Rock has said much much worse things before.

As you know by now, Natalie Portman recently went vegan after reading Jonathan Safran Foer‘s new book, Eating Animals.

Nat was interviewed at the Gotham International Film Awards when she was asked how on earth she survives without her ice cream.

“There’s still Rice Dream and soy milk ice cream and occasionally if you can find ethically produced dairy, you can have it,” Natalie said.

How does a vegan get their ice cream fix?

Ha!

That’s like asking a veggie how she gets her protein.
