Who Would You: Edward Cullen Or Stefan Salvatore

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009 in Actors, Polls/Surveys, Who Would You.

Edward Cullen and Stefan Salvatore are “vegetarian vampires” in The Twilight Saga and The Vampire Diaries, meaning both refuse to feast on humans.

Now, if only we could get some vegetarian vampires that don’t eat animals as well.

Between the two “vegetarian vampires” played by Robert Pattinson and Paul Wesley, who would you rather…

Robert Pattinson: Some Veggie Burgers Grow In The Garden

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, March 23rd, 2009 in Actors.

Twilight Press Conference

Hey all you vegetarian vampire fans. The Twilight DVD has recently come out and if you have what they call OCD, or “Obsessive Cullen Disorder,” you’ll be checking out the DVD’s extras, such as the watching the movie with commentary by Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and director Catherine Hardwicke.

During such commentary, the group starts talking about the shot where Bella is eating a vegetarian burger at the diner with her dad. Rob mentions he was talking about veggie burgers with Hayley Williams, singer from the band Paramore, that has a couple of songs on the soundtrack.

Hayley mentioned Gardenburgers, and Rob says he’d never heard of a veggie burger being called a “garden burger.”

Director Catherine Hardwicke says that a “garden burger” is a little more elegant way of saying veggie burger. To which Rob replies, “I think a veggie burger is much nicer. It sounds much more appealing. Garden burger sounds like something you found in the garden.”

Aw, did Rob just diss Gardenburgers without even knowing it?

If you know Gardenburger, you know they have a plethora of veggie patties, from Flamed-Grilled to Black Bean Chipotle to Garden Vegan. And you know they don’t taste like dirt!

We’ll have to educate Rob on Gardenburgers some day.

Will New Moon Have Peter Facinelli Running To Butcher Shop?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, March 2nd, 2009 in Actors, Film & TV, Not So Vegetarian.

11th Annual Costume Designers Guild Awards

You can’t go to any news site on the web these days without hearing about the filming of the upcoming sequel to Twilight, New Moon.

Peter Facinelli will be returning to the set to play Dr. Carlisle Cullen and if his preparation is anything like it was for Twilight, he’ll be downing steak like it’s the last cow on earth. Disgusting!

“I started eating a lot more meat than I usually eat,” Facinelli said, when asked by Premier.com if he tried to be vegetarian to get into character for the role of a vegetarian vampire. Remember, these are only pseudo vegetarian vampires, because “vegetarian” to them, just means not eating humans.

“I was just hungry for red meat the whole time. So it kind of had a backwards effect on me, because normally I’m more on the vegetarian side. So with this, I was eating steak all the time.”

Normally on the vegetarian side? So normally, Peter doesn’t eat humans, hahahaha.

While his children with wife Jennie Garth were enjoying tofu stir-fry, he was sinking his fangs into beef. 

Hopefully, he’s gotten that out of his system and doesn’t need “re-schooling” to get back into character.

Hey Peter, just pretend your steak is cute little Bella and you’re Edward trying to fight off the urge to give her a big open mouth smooch and swallow.

Stephenie Meyer’s Vegetarian Platter Reduced To Counter Top

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, February 27th, 2009 in Authors, Film & TV.

Breaking Dawn Concert Series With Stephenie Meyer & Justin Furstenfeld

Some artists are so multi-talented they can write, direct, and even star in their own scripts. Talk about attention hogs.

Anyone who’s watched Twilight and knows what the author of the book series, Stephenie Meyer, looks like, remembers seeing her cameo in the coffee shop where Bella and her dad are having lunch.

Earlier reports had mentioned Stephenie was going to order a vegetarian platter during her appearance.

But as any fan knows, her scene was reduced to one shot sitting at the counter.

But Meyer isn’t what you’d call an attention hog, as she was reluctant to even do that scene.

“It was not my idea to do the cameo,” she said. “They talked me into it. They thought it would be, you know, cute for the fans because most of them would recognize me. I was thinking it was going to be more like a ‘Where’s Waldo?’ thing. Like I walk by for one second in a crowd and if they can find me, cool. That’s the one scene in the movie I would happily cut — the first five seconds, and the one that I had to watch like, I mean like this [covering her eyes], ‘Ah, is it over yet?’ It was really hard for me.”

Is Twilight Saga Really Animal Friendly?

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009 in Actors, Actresses, Animal Issues, Film & TV.

Twilight - Germany Premiere

Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s Twilight Saga snagged a Libby Award for Most Animal Friendly movie, but did voters watch the entire flick?

Yes, Bella ate vegetarian meals throughout the movie like Gardenburgers, spinach salad, and mushroom ravioli, but that may be where the animal friendliness ended.

The “vegetarian vampires” were the biggest paradox. Vegetarian to these blood sucking guys and gals meant avoiding human flesh and eating animals instead-which in our world of daylight and non Topaz colored eyed humans is the very contradiction of a vegetarian.

A deer is killed at the beginning of the movie. Characters wore fur in some scenes.

Is this the most liberal of animal friendly recognitions one can receive?

The winners were decided by a vote from peta2.org’s audience, so the readers may have automatically voted for the most popular movie that mentioned anything vegetarian or animal without doing their homework.

Personally, we cast our vote for the Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson big screen hit, Marley & Me, which used rescue dogs on the set.

Robert Pattinson: Being A Vegetarian Vampire Hard On The Eyes

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, January 3rd, 2009 in Actors.

Twilight actor Robert Pattinson has a hair raising experience - London

The vegetarian vampires of the Twilight saga are like vegetarian humans who call themselves vegetarian but say they eat chicken. Yeah…not really.

But if you’re a vampire living in Forks, Washington, then refraining from eating humans and eating forest creatures instead is vegetarian. Vampire readers in Forks, you know what we’re talking about right? Never mind, we don’t really want that question answered.

Robert Pattinson plays vegetarian vampire Edward Cullen, who thanks to his “vegetarian” diet, has topaz colored eyes. The producers couldn’t find a real human with topaz colored eyes, so when Robert got the part, they forced him to wear topaz colored contact lenses. And they can make a vegetarian vampire quite grumpy.

He told Britain’s Ok Magazine he isn’t looking forward to shooting the sequel New Moon, because he has to wear the lenses.

“It was like I constantly had sand in my eyes. I was wearing them for three months constantly and my eyes never ever accepted them! It took me 20 minutes per eye every single day and I ended up having to literally fold it into my eyeball.”

Not only that, but they inhibit vampire seductive skills.

“It was frustrating as well because normally your eyes are saying something, but if you’ve got two orange blobs in your face it’s so annoying! The director would say, ‘Look at her (Kristen Stewart) like you love her,’ and I’d be like, ‘I’m trying!'”

At least he gets the reward of munching on some forest critters in his trailer between scenes.

Vegan Moby Plays Secretary Of Steak In Vampire Film “Suck”

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008 in Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Australia New York Premiere - Red Carpet

Vegetarian vampires are the happening thing these days, and one vegan vampire wants to get his 15 minutes of blood sucking fame before the fad ends.

Moby, a vegan, is set to play the frontman for a band called, “Secretaries of Steak,” (vegan pun, ha, ha, ha) in the upcoming vampire horror/comedy film Suck.

Suck follows the adventures of a band not doing so hot, but still calls itself The Winners. Their luck changes when they happen to meet a vampire (in the real world these same creatures are called agents) who gives them a chance at rock and roll, as well as other kinds of immortality. Of course, there’s the inevitable blood cravings. The Secretaries of Steak are a rival band to the Winners. Get ’em Moby!

Other notables include meat shunning Henry Rollins, who plays a radio host, Dimitri Coats of the indie band Burning Brides as the vampire, Iggy Pop as music producer, and Alice Cooper as a blood sucking bartender.

Oh, yeah. Can’t wait to watch Moby get his vegan vampire on!

Vegetarian Vampire Christian Serratos Wears Glasses On And Off Screen

Written by Vegetarian Star on Monday, November 24th, 2008 in Actresses, Videos.

Premiere Of Summit Entertainment's

Vegetarian Vampires have taken over! The film, Twilight, based on the novel series by Stephenie Meyer, took a bite of $70.5 million at the box office during it’s opening weekend.

It features a group of vampires, known as the “vegetarian vampires,” because they don’t eat humans. However, they still eat animals in the forest, so sounds like they have some identity issues.

One of the vegetarian, but not really vampires, Angela Weber, played by Christian Serratos spoke to Peta2.org about her thoughts on dissection, fur, and animal testing in cosmetics. Since Serratos wears glasses, the film’s producers decided to write this into her character.

After watching the video, don’t forget to enter to win the entire Twilight book series as well as a pair of tickets to watch the vegetarian vampires at a theatre near you.
