Vegetarian Star

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!

There’s nothing better than a celebrity chef who snitches.

From former White House chef Walter Scheib giving the dirt on how Chelsea Clinton went vegan to Aaron Ash, the now owner of a raw vegan foods restaurant telling how he gave Mike D of the Beastie Boys what he wanted, we love hearing from those who have spent time in some of the most private areas of a star’s life-their diet.

Eric Ienco has cooked for celebs such as Madonna, Sting’s wife Trudie Styler, Christie Turlington, and ethical fashion designer Stella McCartney.

Apparently, Stella can’t get enough of this guy’s soup.

From Roundtownnews.co.uk:

“She’s a vegetarian, through and through. I think Stella likes plain and simple home-cooked foods. I think her mum must have raised her this way – Linda was a veggie too. Stella isn’t picky but she’s very enthusiastic about my soup! I like her; she’s a good soul.”

Read what other foods celebrities enjoy Eric cooking for them.

Morrissey continues to put the smackdown on meat products during his performances.

He recently banned all such products from a concert he performed at Webster Hall in New York City. Unlike Chrissie Hynde, doesn’t look like he offerred any “wheat meat” for compensation.

Speaking of Morrissey, congrats to all our winners in the giveaway. If you aren’t already jamming to your CD, it should arrive any day now. Thanks for having fun with us!

Like, fed to the tune of 100 pounds of mixed greens. Actually, Bryan will probably just have a nice helping of them that fills up a salad bowl or two, but hey, who’s to say he might not be really hungry on the evening of the Juno Awards banquet.

The Juno Awards highlight Canada’s best music performing artists. Besides the actual award ceremony taking place on March 29th, many “Juno” activities will be happening in the host city of Vancouver, including a dinner gala where hundreds of hungry musicians will meet up at Westin Bayshore Hotel for a dinner for the stars.

Celebs such as Sarah McLachlan, Nickelback, and vegan rocker Bryan Adams are expected  to be present. And it looks like Bryan will have a lot to chow down on.

“[In terms of] salad, we’ll probably go through almost 100 pounds of mixed greens,” said Executive Chef Kevin Doucette.

But that doesn’t mean Bryan will be munching like a rabbit for the big night, as they’ll be plenty of veg dishes to choose from.

Melanie Berry, president of the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (CARAS), which organizes the Junos, said, “There’s a fairly good number of vegetarians, too, so we want to sample those dishes because they are just so important.”

Not only that, Chef Doucette is thrilled to cook up meatless entrees. 

“Coming up with vegetarian dishes is more exciting than anything,” he said. “It’s not on the set menu. It has to be fresh. And it changes all the time.”

“I was brought up that way, so it kind of came very naturally to me. I was brought up on an organic farm in the countryside and the whole family was vegetarian. So it sort of came without thinking. But then when it came to my having a career, starting a job and starting a brand in fashion, I guess it wouldn’t have sat comfortably with me to be hypocritical. I guess that was the starting point. The seeds were already sown in my personal life, and then they came into my business life.”

Some say if you’re a vegetarian and drive a Hummer, you’re still responsible for less emissions than a meat eater. Of course a vegan driving a hybrid is better. A vegan on a bike is superb. And if piggybacking ever becomes a standard of transportation, that’ll cut carbon emissions too. 

Alan Donohoe of The Rakes never wanted to drive, and living in London there was really no need for a car, but eventually he settled on a middle of the road eco-friendly Triumph 1300 after moving to Brighton.

Donohoe admits the Triumph 1300 isn’t as efficient as other vehicles, but since he’s a vegan, he’s got his butt covered-at least environmentally.

“[My car is] very light, though it isn’t as efficient as one those horrible cars, what are they called? Those new sort of smart cars. It’s not like I take it out apart from the odd spin at the weekend or something, but in my defence I am a vegan, and that diet is very good for the environment. I can’t back it up scientifically and I don’t know who said it, but a vegan in a 4X4 is still using more emissions than a meat eater on a bicycle. I went to this talk by this guy from The Vegan Society and he was talking about people having enough land to sustain themselves, and he was saying a vegan could live off one acre of land using the resources of everything within that acre. So environmentally, I’m covered.”

Actor Corey Feldman has some genes that make him love animals, as his mother was an animal rights advocate. Good for him for having such a compassionate mother, because grandma and grandpa thought vegetarianism was just plain tipesh!

Note: Hebrew vocab 101. Tipesh is the word for dumb, idiot, stupid…you get the point.

From an interview with Look To The Stars.org:

“By the time I was 10 years old, I was resigned to the fact the I wanted to be a vegetarian for the rest of my life. However, growing up in a strict family environment, my grandparents where old Jewish traditional type people and thought I was crazy for wanting to be a vegetarian. It took until I was about 13 years old when I made the decision to be a strict vegetarian… and have been every since, and it’s been about 24 years for me now.”

Growing up, Feldman and his mother had as many as 50 animals living with them on their ranch as a result of their obsessive dog and cat rescuing tendencies.

Nowadays, Corey lists animal rights organizations such as the Humane Society, PETA, Farm Sanctuary, and Last Chance For Animals as his top choice for charities.

Not that we are encouraging anyone to gawk at Heather Mills‘ chest, but if you look closely at the shirt she’s wearing in this picture, you’ll see the phrase, “Vegan” and “No body gets hurt.”

Heather wore this lovely piece of fashion recently while on site at her new vegan restaurant, currently the old Big Fish cafe, near her home in the UK.
