Vegetarian Star

Howard Stern’s longtime radio sidekick, Robin Quivers, adopted a strict vegan diet and lost 70 pounds in the past year. She is sporting a new body as well as a new boyfriend, New Jersey comedian Jim Florentine, who is over a decade younger than she is.

In an recent interview she explained her decisions for doing so. “It was my health,” she said. “I was not the type of person who ate 50 Big Macs. I wasn’t having a great time being fat. I was eating what most people consider a relatively healthy diet and not doing well.”

Quivers got started on The Martha’s Vineyard Diet Detox and after her cleansing process was complete, she began eating vegan.

She often drinks juices for breakfast and dinners might include grilled vegetables, sometimes with a small amount of pasta or risotto made with olive oil, instead of butter. She cites her new way of eating as giving her more energy and gets irritated at criticism from the medical community or others that might think the diet is too extreme.

On a very important day in Veggie History, July 20th, 2004, Andre 3000 of Outkast was named the sexiest vegetarian of the year by Peta.

Other celebrities who have held the title include Carrie Underwood, Natalie Portman, and Kevin Eubanks.

Wonder if he still celebrates with a tofu shish kabob on the grill every year?

Natalie Portman’s name was dropped by The Luxist in an article discussing fashion ethics and Hollywood stars.

Portman has vowed to only wear vegan shoes, such as those by Stella McCartney. But she’s giving vegan foot wearers even more variety.

She started her own line of vegan shoes in February of this year.

We went online (and you should too) to view these and they are absolutely gorgeous and think they’ll satisfy the shoe fetish for all vegan (and hopefully non-vegan) women in the world who are adding extra closets to their homes to make way for the 100s they already have.

While we would never promote excessive consumption in any manner, if you are going to buy dozens of shoes, we recommend you take the “No Meat On Feet,” approach.

Curb Your Enthusiasm and ‘Till Death’s J.B. Smoove says he’s vegetarian-most of the time anyway.

“I’m a 75% vegetarian. My wife has been vegetarian for years,” said Smoove. “We eat a lot of soy products.”

Smoove is also outspoken in environmental issues and hopes to get solar panels for his home.

“But that will have to wait awhile,” he added.

If sexiness sells, then pea farmers should be millionaires soon. Corey Feldman, star of The Two Coreys, and his model wife, Susie Feldman, are starring in a new PETA ad, “Give Peas A Chance.”

The ad mimics the image created by John Lennon and Yoko Ono created years ago, with “Give Peace A Chance,” being the slogan.

“Susie and I choose the vegetarian way of life because for us, there really is no other choice. We must evolve as a race and as a planet, and evolution includes learning and changing from our mistakes. We will never truly grow until we as a whole come to the realization that all beings on this earth should be treated with love and respect.”

The ad will start running July 18th.

Hmmm…says Daniel Negreanu. Who should I endorse next? Boca Burgers-maybe, Poker VT-definitely, McDonald’s-heck NO!

Canadian Poker Champion Daniel Negreanu has earned great success at many professional poker events, including the World Series of Poker Events. He’s also appeared on Late Night Poker, Poker After Dark, and High Stakes Poker.  Oh, and he’s been a vegan since 2003.

A star such as this obviously will have endorsement moguls banging at the door, but Negreanu won’t hand over his chips to just any company. And he’ll never forget the job he’s there to do.

“I’m a vegan, so obviously I won’t do a McDonald’s ad,” Negreanu said. “The main thing is to continue to do the best I can at poker.”

After the first set of 2008 sexiest vegetarians Anthony Kiedis and Leona Lewis were crowned, Peta got greedy with the veg royalty and decided to hold another contest, naming yet 2 more.

Alyssa Milano of Charmed and Frank Iero of My Chemical Romance were the sexiest judged by a contest held by peta2.org.

According to The Daily Green, this second list had younger celebrities, more men, with most men being in bands.

Is Peta planning to take over, thus crowning more veg kings and queens to help rule the world? Oh, well. We believe governments are better without monarchy anyway. This seems like a tofu takeover we don’t mind submitting to.

Is Carole King a veg? We haven’t found a source that says so, but 4 years ago she was campaigning for John Kerry and reported as eating a veggie sandwich from Subway.

“When I came in ’84, I came for a candidate I really cared about,” King said while eating a vegetarian sandwich from Subway on Kerry’s campaign bus. “And I’m here again for a candidate I really care about that I really think can do the job America needs.” King was referring to Colorado Senator Gary Hart when she spoke of 1984.

It appears she’s back in New Hampshire, putting in her support for Obama for the next couple of days.

While we don’t know if she’s completely veg, we salute this Natural Woman for choosing healthy on that day!
