Vegetarian Star

“When I made that decision it forced me to learn about nutrition, forced me to learn about the things I should be eating. It also exposed to me the corporate farming methods we use in this country and just how unhealthy it is for us as consumers. When you’re relying on corporations to feed you, you have to remember that their bottom line is making money.”

Phil Collen has long been the face representing Def Leppard’s vegetarian side.

But during an interview with NPR,  singer Joe Elliott reveals most of the guys actually eat a plant-based diet. That means everyone noshes on hummus and pretzels at those wild backstage parties with scantily clad groupies.

The debut episode of ABC’s Beverly Hills Nannies featured the vegan Elkins family and the nanny named Amanda who isn’t.

Amanda appears eager to do the job right, asking questions about ingredients to make sure she doesn’t compromise the children’s diets. And she does have a sense of humor about it.

“Any animals harmed in the process of making that bread?” she asked during a  trip to the bakery. To which the baker jokingly replied, “Wheat.”

Watch a clip from the premier below or go to ABC to view the full episode where no nannies were harmed in the making.
