Vegetarian Star

Vegans Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have been included in Victoria Namkung’s “Five Celebrity Couples We Can Believe In” at huffingtonpost.com.

In the entertainment world, breaking up is more common than the old good luck wish of “Break a leg.” And don’t even get us started on the rumors and scandals. Jon and Kate plus…8 extra boyfriends and girlfriends?!

Great couples do great things for themselves and others, and Ellen and Portia’s contribution to both animals and healthy living is highlighted.

“They may be in the midst of fighting for equal marriage rights, but you can’t help but notice how damn happy Ellen DeGeneres and actress Portia de Rossi are together, whether they’re buying up modern homes, rescuing dogs or going vegan together.”

Find out who the other great couples are at the Huffington Post.

Portia de Rossi is set to star in a new ABC drama called Better Off Ted about a research & development company, Veridian Dynamics, without scruples.

Much of their ideas are generated just to see “what will happen” or “what is possible” including cryonically freezing an employee.

A people freeze? Yikes! Sounds too much like a Zach Morris (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) stunt from Saved By The Bell.

But there is an idea that gets generated at Veridian that’s ethical, test tube meat, and of course dear vegan Portia is totally turned on by it.

“Since I have been a vegan, I have been researching all kinds of ways animals are used in foods, and I see those big warehouses and wonder about what goes on inside,” de Rossi told Buffalo News. “It’s not too far from reality. There are huge corporations that manufacture food and makeup and nuclear weapons.”

It may not be that far from reality.

PETA announced last year it would award a million dollars to the “first person to come up with a method to produce commercially viable quantities of in vitro meat at competitive prices by 2012.”

Entrepreneurs and scientists, get ready, set go!

“Better Off Ted,” premiers this Wednesday on ABC.

Olivia Wilde, star of Fox’s TV series House, made an appearance recently on the Ellen DeGeneres show and announced she’s a full vegan!

We had teased Olivia in the past for being “mostly vegetarian” but still eating fish.

She first met Ellen at a fundraiser for Prop 2, a California measure which passed last year to ensure certain farm animals can move freely.

She discussed how Moby was performing at the Prop 2 fundraiser when a huge spider came aiming for Moby’s bald head. 

Of course, in the interest of animals, the spider wasn’t killed-it was picked up by Jared Leto who announced at the microphone, “We’re here for the animals. That means every animal.”

Wilde’s husband is Italian, who’s father was a prince, so that technically makes her a princess! Or according to Ellen, a “pancake princess.”

Olivia’s never lost an eating contest and tells the story of how she ate 33 pancakes in 20 minutes.

She challenges Ellen to a future vegan eating contest, but Ellen suggests Portia could be a better competitor.

Uh-oh. Ellen’s revealed a behind closed doors secret!

“We eat really clean. I stopped eating meat first, and when I stopped eating dairy – which was hard, because I loved cheese! – I lost the most weight. I eat a lot of vegetables. I saw the cages [of animals] in a disturbing documentary Earthlings, and could no longer participate. We love animals.”
