Marley & Mills: Heather Mills Poses With Dog At Genesis Awards

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, March 30th, 2009 in Actresses, Animal Issues, Models, TV Hosts.

23rd Annual Genesis Awards - Arrivals

The 23rd annual Genesis Awards were held this weekend and vegan Heather Mills was present with a very handsome companion: a golden Labrador retriever, one of the dogs who played Marley in the Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson hit movie, Marley & Me.

The Genesis Awards are held annually to recognize celebrities and notable public figures that have made the biggest bark (had to throw that pun in) for animal rights.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi received the Wyler Awards this year. The couple recently became vegan and were huge Proposition 2 (which allows some farm animals to move around freely) supporters last year.

“For me it’s about their [the animals] health. If I get any (nutritional) benefits from not killing them, I guess that’s a bonus.”
—-Pretenders’ singer Chrissie Hynde, in an interview, on the health benefits of being a vegan. Chrissie’s reason sounds a lot like the late Isaac Bashevis Singer, who said he went vegetarian for the health of the chickens.

What health benefits did you receive as a bonus for going vegetarian or vegan?

Heather Mills, Jamie Walker The Carnivore Still Going Strong

Heather Mills works on her new vegan restaurant

Awhile back, we told you an ex girlfriend of Heather Mills’ then boyfriend, Jamie Walker, was spilling the vegan pork and beans on her previous relationship with him.

Elsa Maneiro claimed Jamie and Heather would never work out because Jamie loved meat too much.

“I don’t think they will be compatible. Jamie will not become a vegetarian as he loves meat too much,” Maneiro said.

“He always lapped up my chicken or meat dishes. He has a penchant for hot dogs, hamburgers and junk food occasionally as well.”

“He adores fish. I can’t see him giving it up. The food is full of protein which is great for his body-building.”

Hmm…Either Jamie is eating more faux chicken lately or Heather’s tolerating his beefy ways.

Pictured here is Jamie and Heather walking on the day Heather showed the press the site for her new vegan restaurant, currently the old Big Fish Cafe. It looks like they are at least, ahem, keeping in touch.

Heather,a vegan, was pretty strict with Paul McCartney, requesting that he tighten the belt on his already vegetarian ways.

Has Heather let loose? Or has a woman turned Jamie around?

Alan Donohoe Exposes Butt, Says Why He Went Vegan

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, March 27th, 2009 in Male Singers, Videos.

Earlier we learned Alan Donohoe of The Rakes had his butt covered environmentally due to his vegan diet.

However, the latest dirt on Alan reveals something completely contradictory. It seems he’s taken his pants off and exposed his butt on one occasion. But it was all in the name of animal rights.

Alan ran naked in PETA’s Running Of The Nudes, to help bulls in Pamplona, Spain.

Alan’s cute rescue kitty, Fritz, makes an appearance in this clip. 

Watch the video to learn why Alan went vegan and visit peta2.org to enter to win a personal ring tone recorded by Alan and a signed copy of The Rakes’ latest CD, Klang!

Gossip Girl Dreama Walker, Moby Rub Elbows With Vegan Docs

The Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine is a non-profit organization that promotes a veggie diet and lifestyle to prevent and treat diseases like diabetes, as well as advocates the advancement of medical research without the testing on animals.

The group recently held a benefit at Peter and Mary Max’s in New York city, where veg celebrities like Moby, Dan Piraro, and Dreama Walker attended.

Guess that means Dreama kept her vegetarian ways.

If you recall, the Gossip Girl actress embarked on a 30-day vegan diet after watching the Joaquin Phoenix narrated documentary, Earthlings. She had said then she probably would continue, but might see how her body would react to dairy.

With all the vegan food to choose from at the event, Dreama certainly didn’t have to worry about straying from vegan that night, as food from fine restaurants like  Bonobo’s4-Course Vegan and Candle 79 was served.

Heather Mills No Burger Queen After All

Heather Mills has a bad hair day in New York

My, my how rumors get started.

The one we told you earlier about Heather Mills signing a multi-million dollar contract with Burger King to promote their new vegan burger? Nah, not true.

Heather has denied being the spokesperson for such a campaign, but says she’d love to do one.

Are you listening Burger King?

Heather’s manager told WENN, “The Burger King story isn’t true.”

“Heather hasn’t been paid three million but she would love to get vegan burgers or any vegan food out there via any avenue possible and Burger King would be a great place to begin.”

Thom Yorke, You, And The Lights Out

51st Annual Grammy Awards - Show

On Saturday, March 28th at 8:30 PM, Earth Hour will take place. 

People all around the world will turn off their lights for an hour, taking a stand for reducing carbon emissions.

If you plan to turn your lights out, why not invite Radiohead’s vegan Thom Yorke to spend time in the dark with you? Musically, that is. Don’t know what you were thinking.

GreenLivingOnline.com has compiled a list of top earth friendly musicians you can put on your playlist for the evening, including Radiohead.

“Not that we need more reasons to love Thom Yorke and Radiohead, but the U.K. band is also striving to reduce carbon emissions. When touring overseas, band members transport their gear via sea and avoid chartered flights. Recently, they stayed home and telecommuted to Late Night with Conan O’Brian rather than flying. Yorke is also a long-time vegan and his solo album, The Eraser, speaks directly to climate crisis issues. radiohead.com “

We’re sure Fake Plastic Trees degrade much faster than real plastic ones. Go Radiohead!

Other green musicians on the list include pescetarian KT Tunstall, who hangs out in her green designed home when she’s not on the road, and the Beastie Boys, who use biofuel on tour and participate in cell phone recycling programs.
