Vegetarian Star

Dr. Oz‘s fit, sexy and lovely wife Lisa recently appeared on The View with her husband, where she explained how she’s been a vegetarian since aged 15.

Dr. Oz gets shamed as Lisa “outs” him on the show, revealing how the daytime guru of health used to eat crap before meeting the woman of his life.

“I grew up with brown rice, whole grains, all organic. I’ve been vegetarian since I was 15.”

Sounds like Dr. Oz needs to invite his lady to the show more often for segments!

Bernadette Peters (who’s due for a slice of vegan birthday cake this month) will appear on The View Friday February 19 as part of the show’s 2nd annual special to encourage adoption.

Peters is reportedly bringing her dog along with her as well.

As a spinoff to the Westminster Dog Show, The View will present their version of a dog show, the Mutt Show.

Five mutts up for adoption will be competing and one lucky four legged friend will be awarded the Pedigree Dogs Rule award.

According to Broadway World, Peters will also promote her second children’s book, Stella is a Star. Proceeds from the book are said to go towards Broadway Barks, an organization Peters co-founded with Mary Tyler Moore, that helps find homes for shelter animals.

Just when we thought The View was cool for giving out vegan bags.

Sherri Shepherd came out of the fur closet this Tuesday on the daytime talk show to model a full length fur coat!

What’s even worse, Shepherd was laughing and joking about it.

There’s absolutely nothing funny about killing an animal, electrocuting it and sometimes even skinning it alive to obtain it’s coat in the vain name of fashion.

And it took more than a handful of animals to make Sherri’s coat.

A Scent of Scandal owner Ari Solomon wrote on Girliegirlarmy.com:

“It takes 40 minks to make one fur coat like the one Ms. Shepherd wore on the show. These animals are kept in cages so small they literally go insane from running around in circles. Animals that are caught in the wild have their limbs clamped shut in iron traps. They are sometimes left for days bleeding, freezing and starving, often trying to chew off their own limbs, desperately trying to escape. When “fur animals” are slaughtered, they are killed by being vaginally or anally electrocuted. On some farms their heads are simply slammed against concrete floors. All this barbarity is so that their fur doesn’t get damaged. Sometimes it takes two or three electrocutions/head slammings before the animal dies. Even then, some survive and are skinned alive. Isn’t that luxurious, something to laugh about?”

It’s time Ms. Shepherd educate herself and take on another view about using fur for fashion.

Alicia Silverstone joined the ladies of The View to discuss her newly released vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet.

Silverstone was looking hot as ever and the pictures of the food that flashed on the screen behind them were mouthwatering.

Joy Behar got some laughs when she asked Silverstone “What’s your idea of a “mean” diet?”

“I do cover that in the book,” Silverstone says, which she describes as “the nasty foods” like processed sugar, meat and dairy.

Emily Deschanel already knows what OlsenHaus vegan shoes she’ll be purchasing from the S/S 2010 OlsenHaus collection that debuts in February 2010.

“I love Babylon in all the colors but especially in cow,” Deschanel said, according to the San Fransisco Women’s Fashion Examiner.

Emily is no stranger to OlsenHaus shoes, created by vegan Elizabeth Olsen, as she’s worn the shoes at the Tribeca Film Festival, The Jimmy Fallon Show, and The View.

If you can’t wait until 2010 to buy Emily’s favorite shoe, check out some other OlsenHaus collections available online.

View Emily’s other four favorites, Balance2, Journey, Kingdom, and Vision at the SF Women’s Fashion Examiner.

Ashley Judd came to the defense of the wolves Sarah Palin advocated killing, now a celebrity is coming to Palin’s defense.

Elizabeth Hasselbeck of  The View is upset because she feels celebrities stand up for animal rights more than they do humans. She recently spoke about  Judd collaborating with the Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund to expose Sarah Palin’s environmental track record.

“The problem that I have here is like a lot of these vocal celebrities, in a way, get very loud about these animal killings. Like is she loud as..she said, ‘How many wolves have been killed? 900 this year.’ Is she as loud about the 260,000 kids killed in abortions?”

Her comment results in Joyce Behar asking her to stick to talking about wolves as the discussion heats up.

The stereotype among many non animal rights activists is that the activists have more regard for animals than people. Do you think if animal rights activists voiced their support for human rights more often (while continuing to vouch for animals), they’d get a better reputation?

Chime in and let us know your thought!

Even if you’ve already watched and formed an opinion on the PETA ad NBC officials declared too sexy to show during the Super Bowl, you might want to have a look at Whoopi Goldberg doing her version.

On a recent episode of The View, Goldberg grabs her basket of cabbage, broccoli and other green vegetables and puts on a sexy show that’s almost too steamy for daytime television.

At last year’s Tony Awards, the comedian expressed excitement to try vegan hair products from PureOlogy  It’s no surprise she’d want to shake her stuff and show that everything’s sexier without animal products.

Super Bowl officials, it’s time to reconsider your decision. Whoopi’s ad is one that shouldn’t be nixed.

Move over Oprah. You’re not the only one who can give out cool gifts to your audience members who just happen to plan their trip to Chicago during the right week.

The divas at the daytime talk show, “The View,” Barbara Walters, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Whoopi Goldberg, and Sherri Shepherd treated their fans in the audience on Wednesday to a $150 gift card to ebags.com to pick out a Big Buddha Handbag.

Big Buddha’s bags come in a variety of colors and styles, but best of all, some of them, like the Bonnie Bag are VEGAN, made with synthetic PVC to make them look like leather.

Sigh…If only you could plan a trip to Los Angeles at the right time.
