Vegetarian Star

A Cullen vampire adopting a descendant of wolves?

What would Jacob and his relatives think?!

Robert Pattinson has elevated his guy hunk/animal lover/hot dude status among women by adopting a homeless dog from a shelter that’s so overrun with strays, it has to euthanize faster than the Volturi show up when stupid vampires make a scene and risk everyone’s identities.

“It’s from a shelter and he was going to be put down,” Pattinson told the Daily Record. “I only got him two or three days ago and they only keep them for 10 days.”

The shelter is located in Louisiana, where Pattinson has been filming the final movie in the Twilight series, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn.

The dog is sure to keep Pattinson company while he’s away filming. And although it’s hard to believe, it is the only mammal that wants to see him while he’s shooting at a remote location.

After a drawn out discussion and some investigation, we were saddened to learn that Hayley Williams of Paramore isn’t vegetarian after all.

During a conversation with Rob Pattinson, Hayley appeared as if she genuinely loved Gardenburgers.

But one thing Hayley does love is vegan desserts baked by Danielle Konya and her Vegan Treats crew.

On a recent Twitter, Danielle wrote:

“Tonight we baked for Paramore, No Doubt, and Eddie Vedder, fun!!”

The vegan bakery Danielle owns has baked goodies for several celebrities, including AFI and Alkaline Trio, who’s drummer Derek Grant recently wrote a jingle to express his love for Vegan Treats.

You can check out Vegan Treat’s new website, and follow Danielle’s tweeting @vegantreats.

Hey all you vegetarian vampire fans. The Twilight DVD has recently come out and if you have what they call OCD, or “Obsessive Cullen Disorder,” you’ll be checking out the DVD’s extras, such as the watching the movie with commentary by Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and director Catherine Hardwicke.

During such commentary, the group starts talking about the shot where Bella is eating a vegetarian burger at the diner with her dad. Rob mentions he was talking about veggie burgers with Hayley Williams, singer from the band Paramore, that has a couple of songs on the soundtrack.

Hayley mentioned Gardenburgers, and Rob says he’d never heard of a veggie burger being called a “garden burger.”

Director Catherine Hardwicke says that a “garden burger” is a little more elegant way of saying veggie burger. To which Rob replies, “I think a veggie burger is much nicer. It sounds much more appealing. Garden burger sounds like something you found in the garden.”

Aw, did Rob just diss Gardenburgers without even knowing it?

If you know Gardenburger, you know they have a plethora of veggie patties, from Flamed-Grilled to Black Bean Chipotle to Garden Vegan. And you know they don’t taste like dirt!

We’ll have to educate Rob on Gardenburgers some day.

We already told you how Ingrid Newkirk of PETA said vegetarians and vegans should date omnivores to bring them over the their side and then dump them to move on and convert someone else.

We even joked that Natalie Portman might be doing this to Rob Pattinson.

But it looks like Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor really follows the rule.

Kareena became vegetarian while dating fellow Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor, but the two later broke up. Kareena and Shahid are still both veg, though, and Shahid even put his dog on a vegetarian diet.

Now, Kareena is involved with a guy who is, in her words, “hard core non-vegetarian, who at every given step would be eating his steak and his roast chicken.” But that’s not affecting her eating habits. From the Times of India:

“I did it completely because I believed in it. It’s because of a book I read and I completely believe in. Nobody has put a dagger to my head. I’ve learnt something from Shahid and that’s something that Saif appreciates and in fact Saif always tells me that “Listen, if now you go back to being a non vegetarian, I’ll loose faith in you as a person.” I’ve traveled the word with Saif and he’s sat across thousands of tables from me and I’ve stuck to my French fries even though I have to put on a kilo on my scale, but I would not go for the roast chicken.”

So Kareena came around on her own. But it looks like her past loves played a role. Will Kareena bring her new man over to the veg side? And will the poor soul be left behind once he gives up his steak and roast chicken?

Rumors are circulating that Robert Pattinson is dating vegan Natalie Portman.

Sources say the two met at a pre-Oscars party and have been in touch since.

Could there be a blossoming romance in the making?

Is so, we could almost have a veg on veg couple like the former Hayden Panettiere/Milo Ventimiglia unit.

Rob was “vegetarian vampire” Edward Cullen in Twilight and Nat’s a real life vegan who even tried her hand (or shall we say her foot) at her own vegan shoe company before the economy stomped (haha pun, pun) them out.

Maybe Natalie could do some converting and turn the vegetarian vampire into a real one.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals encourages vegetarians to date non-vegetarians, and president Ingrid Newkirk once said in an interview with green gossip site Ecorazzi, “In fact if they get someone to see how wonderful a vegan diet is, I say, “ Dump him. Move on now! It’s his or her turn to go out and get somebody else over to our side.” When you talk to people one of the strongest reasons they go VEG is because they had a girlfriend or a boyfriend who was VEG.”

Whoa! Watch out Rob, don’t get your heart broken.

But if there’s any truth to the rumor, we bet Natalie’s not interested is breaking Rob’s heart once it’s cleared of potential animal clogging fat.

Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s Twilight Saga snagged a Libby Award for Most Animal Friendly movie, but did voters watch the entire flick?

Yes, Bella ate vegetarian meals throughout the movie like Gardenburgers, spinach salad, and mushroom ravioli, but that may be where the animal friendliness ended.

The “vegetarian vampires” were the biggest paradox. Vegetarian to these blood sucking guys and gals meant avoiding human flesh and eating animals instead-which in our world of daylight and non Topaz colored eyed humans is the very contradiction of a vegetarian.

A deer is killed at the beginning of the movie. Characters wore fur in some scenes.

Is this the most liberal of animal friendly recognitions one can receive?

The winners were decided by a vote from peta2.org’s audience, so the readers may have automatically voted for the most popular movie that mentioned anything vegetarian or animal without doing their homework.

Personally, we cast our vote for the Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson big screen hit, Marley & Me, which used rescue dogs on the set.

The vegetarian vampires of the Twilight saga are like vegetarian humans who call themselves vegetarian but say they eat chicken. Yeah…not really.

But if you’re a vampire living in Forks, Washington, then refraining from eating humans and eating forest creatures instead is vegetarian. Vampire readers in Forks, you know what we’re talking about right? Never mind, we don’t really want that question answered.

Robert Pattinson plays vegetarian vampire Edward Cullen, who thanks to his “vegetarian” diet, has topaz colored eyes. The producers couldn’t find a real human with topaz colored eyes, so when Robert got the part, they forced him to wear topaz colored contact lenses. And they can make a vegetarian vampire quite grumpy.

He told Britain’s Ok Magazine he isn’t looking forward to shooting the sequel New Moon, because he has to wear the lenses.

“It was like I constantly had sand in my eyes. I was wearing them for three months constantly and my eyes never ever accepted them! It took me 20 minutes per eye every single day and I ended up having to literally fold it into my eyeball.”

Not only that, but they inhibit vampire seductive skills.

“It was frustrating as well because normally your eyes are saying something, but if you’ve got two orange blobs in your face it’s so annoying! The director would say, ‘Look at her (Kristen Stewart) like you love her,’ and I’d be like, ‘I’m trying!'”

At least he gets the reward of munching on some forest critters in his trailer between scenes.
