Eva Mendes Wants To Get Naked For Morrissey

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 15th, 2008 in Actresses.

Actress Eva Mendes (Hitch, Ghost Rider) has worn her birthday suit for PETA in the past and now she wants Morrissey to join her.

“I really want to do a PETA ad with Morrissey, I’d be happy to do it naked if need be.”

Although she is willing to show her buns for animal rights, she’s not sure if she should expect full frontal from the former singer of The Smiths.

“Whether Morrissey would want to get naked with me is another question. Maybe he could come up with something more creative than out-and-out nudity.”

Like maybe a fake chik’n patty covering up the essential parts?

Morrissey is an avid supporter of PETA as well as a vegan, so teaming up for the cause makes sense.

Mendes said she’s had a crush on Morrissey ever since she discovered The Smiths.

Morrissey, who is rumored to be talking to former Smiths member Johnny Marr about a reunion, is being presented with a lot of decisions lately. Reunionize with the boys, get naked with the girl…Tough choices, but someone’s gotta make them.

Paul McCartney On Dalai Lama Doctors: They’re Just Wrong!

Mere regular celebrities may fall prey to the medical industry telling them meat is necessary for health, but His Holiness?

The Dalai Lama was vegetarian once, but on the advice of doctors, decided to start eating meat. He has been criticized for this by some, including Paul McCartney.

In Prospect Magazine, Paul reveals he wrote to His Holiness after the Dalai Lama stated, “As Buddhists we believe in not causing any suffering to any sentient beings.”

Paul replied to this by saying, “Forgive me for pointing this out, but if you eat animals then there is some suffering somewhere along the line.”

It was then revealed by the Dalai Lama that he was simply following doctors’ orders.

“He replied saying that his doctors had told him he needed it, so I wrote back saying they were wrong.”

Share Inc's 52nd Annual Boomtown Party - Inside

Michael Bolton was seen having dinner with his band and crew at Positano Coast restaurant in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Unlike some tabloids have incorrectly printed, we can assure you he wasn’t eating lobster.

Bolton had frisee salad, eggplant parmesan, and spaghetti marinara. When his belly was full, unlike Andre 3000 Benjamin, he tipped well.

Since most of his crew is probably not vegetarian, wonder if it grosses him out to watch them eat when he’s out with them?

While dating “Desperate Housewives” star Nicollette Sheridan, a source said he tried to get her to stop eating meat and that it “grossed him out” to watch her eat lamb chops.

Of course, with the band it might be different. He’s not kissing them after dinner.

Is Paul McCartney Giving The Boo To Cull Wild Boar?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, December 10th, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

The McCartney And Mills Hearing Continues Into Day Three

This little piggy came to Paul’s house. This little piggy called it home. Boars like the Beatles. Or at least, ex-Beatles Paul McCartney.

Dozens of them are running around his 1,500 acre estate in Peasmarsh, East Sussex and those around want Paul to do something about it. But so far, he hasn’t given in and okayed for the population to be controlled.

Those who have problems with the wild boars say they are “breeding like rabbits,” and cause problems for those living in the area, including meddling in their gardens and shrubs.

“Boar are a huge problem for farmers. As with deer, the government has a policy to allow humane culling but Sir Paul is having none of it,” a source told the Sun.

Wild Boars can weigh up to 900lbs.-not your average stray cat eating the flowers in the garden. But surely, there must be a non-lethal way to take care of the problem.

Paul’s spokespeople haven’t gave word on why he isn’t doing anything about it, but given the fact that the vegetarian for decades is such an animal rights activists, he may very well find the current government “policy,” to reduce the numbers inhumane.

Avril Lavigne No Kitty Cat, Not Into Wheatgrass Shots

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, December 8th, 2008 in Female Musicians, Female Singers, Food & Drink.

So there was a rumor going around that Avril Lavigne craves wheatgrass shots.

While this isn’t true, she does try to get her vegetables in through steaming broccoli and eating other vegetables with vegan sour cream and vegan butter before shows to keep her energy level up.

After a show though, it’s all downhill. According to People, she said, “I’ll eat junk and have a glass of wine. I like French fries and ice cream cones – and [I like] the truck-stop burritos.”

She’s also a sucker for dill pickle-flavored chips her home country of Canada. Good thing too, as it’s probably easier to take these with her on the road as opposed to the pizzas named after her in her hometown.

Nice to know Avril knows how to be both naughty and nice.

While we love Avril eating healthy, and wheatgrass shots are supposedly good and all, somehow it makes you think of the plant you bring home from Whole Foods to give to the cat.

Andy Hurley’s Vegan, Straight-Edgeness Keeps Tabloids Away

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, December 6th, 2008 in Male Musicians.

MTV Presents

The media likes to rip on celebrities, and with the band Fall Out Boy, it seems Pete Wentz is the favorite whipping boy. But what if it were drummer Andy Hurley? What would the tabloids have to say about him? Nothing much, according to Hurley. In an interview with College Times:

“I’m vegan straight-edge, so I’m never going to be stumbling out of a bar drunk. Maybe I’ll trip and fall once, and somebody will get a funny picture of it. When I’m home – I live in Milwaukee – and no one cares in the first place, but I pretty much just go to movies and go eat and play Call of Duty with my friends.”

No, there’s not really much you can write about if you want to trash Andy. But rest assured, if we hear of anything, we’ll tell you. If we ever catch him ingesting butter…

Rise Against Concert Memorabilia Include PETA Pamphlets

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008 in Bands.

When you go to a concert, you expect to be able to buy some CDs, posters, and a T-shirt if you have any money left over after beer funds have been allotted. If you go to a Rise Against concert, frontman Tim McIlrath and his boys will give you something for free: PETA Pamphlets containing information on going vegetarian.

“Kids are taking the time to do research on their own after they hear about us being vegetarian,” band member Joe Principe said, in an interview with Mercury News. “We want them to think for themselves, so it’s totally rewarding when they come to that conclusion on their own.”

The same types of brochures convinced Principe to turn vegetarian after reading some PETA literature distributed at a punk concert. All four members of the band Zach Blair, Brandon Barnes, Tim McIlrath, and Joe Principe are vegetarian.
