Celebrities are known to demand everything backstage and on the road, sometimes healthy and sometimes not.

Being a vegan, Weird Al Yankovic keeps his requests meat and dairy free, but he didn’t do his homework during his 2003 Poodle Hat tour.

According to The Washington Post, Yankovic is a big fan of white wine, his favorite being Chardonnay. “Yellow Tail brand is preferred,” said the source.

A quick check to the vegetarian and vegan friendly wine directory reveals Yellow Tail white wines are neither.

“Our [yellow tail] white wines, however, do use gelatin as part of the finishing/clarification process.”

Yellow Tail red wines are completely vegan though, and the sugar is derived from grape juice concentrate derived at the factory.

Biggest Loser 6 Weeks To A Healthier You

A brand new cookbook featuring contributions from The Biggest Loser contestants and staff is out, and season 6 competitor Nicole Michalik has contributed her delicious meat and dairy free recipe in Biggest Loser 6 Weeks To A Healthier You.

“Broke Bean Stew” features vegetable broth with your choice of chickpeas, kidney beans or black beans seasoned with onion, garlic and cumin among other spices and herbs.

“I love, love, love! It’s high in protein but totally vegetarian. It’s so easy to make and freezes very well. I make it at least once a month,” said Michalik.

And since there aren’t many ingredients in the recipe and beans are relatively cheap, you won’t go broke if you choose to make it several times a month.

This is definitely the kind of food vegetarian coach Bob Harper pitches on the show.

You can grab the recipe for Broke Bean Stew at Prevention.

Brian May launched his Save Me Campaign in Britain by posing in front of a billboard in West London recently.

The campaign is meant to protect animals by encouraging voters to preserve the current laws in place that protect animals, especially in areas of hunting.

The campaign was named after a hit Queen song by May titled “Save Me.”

Besides the recent Wales badger cull controversy, those supporting May’s campaign are also concerned about the 80-year old Hunting Act, which they believe is in danger of being repealed, depending on future election outcomes.

“We believe that there is a grave danger that Britain will soon revert to the barbaric past, when it was legal to hunt down our wildlife with dogs. The current Tory party leadership has vowed, if they win this coming election, to try to repeal the Hunting Act – a law which it took animal-lovers 80 years, and 700 hours of parliamentary debate to bring into effect, by democratic process, in accordance with the will of at least 75 per cent of the population.”

If the law is repealed, it would make legal the hunting of dogs, foxes, hares, stags and other wild animals in Britain.

The Independent has named their Best of Green and vegan actress Natalie Portman was chosen as the best green celebrity.

Although Natalie’s eco and animal friendly shoe line, Te Casan, was a failure, her successes in activism both through living and campaigning make her one of the best choices.

After being vegetarian for years, she finally made the switch to vegan after reading Jonathan Safran Foer‘s book, Eating Animals.

Her work in Rowanda highlighting the lives of gorillas only further strengthens her resume as a advocate of animals.

Not only does Natalie care about her own source of food, but she has brought the issue of childhood nutrition to the spotlight as well.

As if her diet weren’t eco friendly enough, Natalie is making the resolution to travel carbon neutral.

True Blood‘s Kristin Bauer has recorded a public service announcement for the International Fund for Animal Welfare’s campaign Tails for Whales.

The campaign was designed to show governments around the world how many people support protecting dolphins in Japan.

One way concerned activists can do this is by taking a photograph of themselves making a dolphin “tail” with their hands (for better pictorial explanation, visit the website), and uploading it to the Tailsforwhales.org site.

Besides being counted as an activist, you can also add your picture to your blog or personal web page or any other media source that gets people to take a second look and asks, “What’s this about?”
