Vegetarian Star

The way to a man’s heart is through is his stomach, and Ellen DeGeneres is reportedly trying to make friends with Simon Cowell by feeding him.

The New York DailyNews says that Ellen has been bringing dishes made by her personal chef to her fellow American Idol judge.

“She thought she could get to cranky Simon’s heart through his stomach.”

“She’s vegan, so a typical meal is tofu stroganoff.”

The Daily News goes on to say that, “Maybe in Hollywood that counts as making nice. In New York, it would be torture.”

Its a safe bet that Simon wouldn’t consider it torture at all, given the fact he’s already given Linda McCartney sausages the X factor and agreed to give Meat Free Mondays a try.

Maybe a batch of homemade vegan cookies will calm Simon’s crankiness during finalist week.

Is Simon Cowell giving up mincemeat for Leona Lewis?

The Sydney Morning Herald reports the Bleeding Love singer has convinced X Factor and American Idol‘s most cantankerous judge to support Paul McCartney‘s Meat-Free Mondays campaign.

And it sounds like Leona has Simon already eating tofu from the palm of her hand.

“Anything I ask Simon to get involved in regarding my charity and environmental concerns he always does. He’s cool like that.”

Meanwhile, Leona is spreading the word about vegetarianism at work.

“I’ve banned meat from all photo shoots to the tour itself simply because I don’t support the meat industry.”

Simon’s mother, Julie Cowell, reports her son is getting serious with his girlfriend.

Julie told Britain’s Hello magazine, “I haven’t seen the ring yet, but I do believe they will get engaged. But if you’d asked me this three weeks ago, I would have said, ‘Absolutely not!”

Will there soon be a wedding with vegan cake after the ceremony?

Ellen DeGeneres went on a mission to give up processed sugar to gain energy (and maybe to ease that sexual tension between her and Simon on American Idol).

Giving up sugar doesn’t mean giving up sweetness, by the way.

Try alternatives like honey, agave nectar or rice syrup to sweet talk your way out of the white stuff.

Before you embark on any sugarless  journey, check with your doc first!

Simon Cowell has forbidden X Factor star Alexandra Burke from getting a dog because he thinks she’s wouldn’t be able to devote enough time and attention to one.

“I really wanted a dog this year,” Burke said. “Simon’s said I can’t have one because I’m too busy.”

Instead Burke plans on buying another home.

Hopefully she won’t turn it into a Paris Hilton zoo and store twenty something handbag puppies in it.

If anyone champions the welfare of dogs, it’s Simon.

He’s been caught on more than a few occasions snuggling with four pawed people and took time to record a public service announcement about not leaving pets unattended in cars.

2009 must be the year for vegan Ellen DeGeneres because she’s already nabbed 2 Best of Veggie Awards and it’s not even New Year’s Eve yet.

Her recent commitment to veganism pushed her into the Top 10 Veg Stories of the Decade by VegNews.

Now, Ellen has been named Woman of the Year by PETA.

“She made vegan pizza with Chef Wolfgang Puck, spoke with Dr. Neal Barnard about the health benefits of a vegan diet, and just in time for Thanksgiving, “talked turkey” about the everyday abuse of animals on factory farms with Jonathan Safran Foer, author of Eating Animals. Ellen also created pages on her Web site that feature insight, info, and tips about cruelty-free living. Visitors can find recipes, read about why Ellen went vegan, learn where to shop, and more.”

Let’s not forgot she shared her personal chef, Roberto Martin, on national television as he taught her fans to cook vegan pot pie and roast, hosted fellow veg Pamela Anderson to discuss the launch of her eco friendly perfume and received an award from the Humane Society of the United States.

What’s on Ellen’s goals for 2010 and the next decade?

Hopefully, getting Simon Cowell and the other American Idol judges to eat vegan tacos every week.

Wow.

Talk about heartless.

Actress Kate Beckinale has been accused of allegedly leaving her puppy dog in the car for hours while she spent her time inside the Byron Tracy Salon.

It was reported that she also left the windows up, left no water for the dog and kept him on a leash.

Hopefully, these stories aren’t true.

There a few harsher punishments you can give Fido than leaving him in a car all day in the heat, or even for a few hours.

Doggies can’t cool themselves off as easily as humans and it’s a disaster waiting happen.

Simon Cowell, who’s been caught making puppy love on more than one occasion, recorded a PSA reminding dog owners to take pups out of the car and into the cool shelter.

Think Kate needs to watch the video a few times?

Simon Cowell knew Linda McCartney faux sausages had the X Factor.

But if his assistant and X Factor mentor Sinitta is wearing real fur trim, she definitely isn’t a star.

What is with this bizarre looking accessory on her coat, anyway?

Seems as if an animal is crawling around her neck, hoping to pop out any minute to get its 5 minutes of fame on TV.

Of course, Sinitta probably knows the only way to wear a fur is to wear one more artificial than John and Edward’s (aka “Divas of Dublin”) gel preserved hairdos.

Your vote counts.

Is Sinitta keeping her X Factor by faking it?

Or is she fur real?

By now you’ve heard the news that American Idol officials have finally found Paula Abdul‘s replacement, Ellen DeGeneres.

Shocked, disappointed, excited-regardless of your feelings about Ellen as a judge, one thing’s for sure: she’ll be bringing a warm heart for animals to the judge’s table.

A vegan and activist who has championed causes like Prop 2 and given away vegan items on her television show, Ellen now makes one more animal advocate along with Simon Cowell.

Simon’s not vegetarian (Ellen, bring your vegan seitan wings to the rehearsals), but he’s been outspoken on animal welfare, including a PSA urging dog owners never to leave their four legged friends locked in a car.

Simon even said he sensed vegetarian Carrie Underwood‘s kindness when she walked into her audition and mentioned putting items about how potential Idol contestants treated animals on the audition questionnaire.

And let’s not forget, Kara Dioguardi reminded everyone to take good care of their dogs too.

Now if only we could get Randy Jackson to get naked in the name of being fur-free.
