Who Would You: Omar Epps Or Noah Wyle (The TV Doc Edition)

Vegetarian Star — Wed, 27 May 2009 21:01:51 +0000

ER has closed its final hospital room curtain, but Noah Wyle’s presence on the set for years most certainly helped the show become an Emmy award winning hit. One less hospital show on the air leaves one less vegetarian actor who portrays a doctor, but have no fear, Omar Epps still graces the screen on House. Hospital cafeterias aren’t exactly known for their delicious food, so plan on getting your veggie burger or any other meal elsewhere. So between the two gentlemen, who would you rather do…

Who Would You: Lisa Edelstein Or Olivia Wilde (The House Edition)

Vegetarian Star — Wed, 13 May 2009 20:56:22 +0000

The veg room at Fox’s House is getting roomier now that Kal Penn (Dr. Kutner)has left for the White House. But Lisa Edelstein and Olivia Wilde are still holding down the fort, along with their male vegetarian counterpart, Omar Epps. Lisa Edelstein frequently makes veg dishes for her guests and claims they never miss the meat. Wilde will be eating more than one veggie burger, given the fact she can eat 33 pancakes in 20 minutes. So between the two House actresses, who would you rather do?

Veg Man Kal Penn Leaves Fox House For Obama’s White House

Vegetarian Star — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 14:24:51 +0000

Spoiler alert. If you didn’t watch this week’s episode of House, you might not want to read this.

Resident Lawrence Kutner, played by Kal Penn, tragically killed himself. So why did the Fox network writers need to take Kutner out? That’s because Penn’s leaving to work at the White House!

Penn worked on the Obama campaign last year and was offered a job as associate director in the White House Office of Public Liaison (OPL). From tv.yahoo.com:

“Growing up I always had two interests and two passions, one being public service and the other being arts and acting, so it’s always been on my mind, I always try to engage in different public service projects, and in the last 18 months having had the opportunity to serve on the Obama campaign, I certainly started thinking about that possibility…”

“What they [OPL] try and do is take the administration itself out of Washington, so they go into communities across the country, continue the sorts of dialogue people had started during the campaign and basically ensure that a bunch of citizens’ views about their elected officials, about their government are all happening and that they’re working effectively.”

Pennsylvania Street is far from Hollywood and so is the pay rate. Although Penn won’t be bringing in movie star bucks, he’s excited and grateful for the opportunity.

While this is wonderful news for Kal, it’s a little sad for House fans, especially considering there’s one less vegetarian on the show. Kal leaves behind Lisa Edelstein, Olivia Wilde, and Omar Epps to share a veggie pizza during long days on the set.

Kal played Kumar in Harold and Kumar go to White Castle. At the end, where Harold and Kumar ate White Castle burgers, Kal bit into veggie burgers instead.

Omar Epps In Same Veg House As Lisa Edelstein

Vegetarian Star — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 17:52:09 +0000

Yet another celebrity hiding behind his tempeh, Omar Epps, the actor who plays Dr. Eric Foreman on “House” follows a vegetarian diet.

How is it we are just now finding out about this? Must be because he hasn’t gotten naked for PETA yet.

But how incredible it is to know both he and fellow “House” cast mate Lisa Edelstein both keep their houses meat-free.

Treehugger.com has compiled a gallery of Vegetarian Men We Love: Macho Men Who Don’t Eat Meat, where you’ll find Omar, as well as other photos of deliciously meatless men such as Jared Leto, and fun facts like Forest Whitaker remaining vegetarian while putting on 50 pounds to play dictator Idi Amin in The Last King of Scotland.

Because there’s still a stereotype of vegetarianism and veganism being a “girlie” thing, it’s good to know the boys are getting proper respect.
