Vegetarian Star

Leona Lewis spoke to the UK Sun where she revealed she takes her job seriously–right down to the food served at work.

“I only have vegetarian catering,” Leona said. “Everyone who works with me knows that now.

“I don’t have any meat at photoshoots and video shoots. It’ll be the same on the tour.”

Leona loves horses and although she’ll be using horse themes for her upcoming tour, she’s smart enough to know real animals don’t belong on the stage.

“Yes, we will be using some horse themes – but no real horses. That would be strange and possibly a bit dangerous!

And Leona is totally into rent-a-horse, as long as it’s done ethically.

“I ride whenever I can, which is about once a week. Luckily, you can lease horses a bit like cars.

“But I am very careful to make sure that it is not cruel in any way. I had an incident when I got hurt by a horse a few months ago. But that was my fault, not the horse’s.”

Mark Bittman, the vegan until dinner flexitarian advocate, recently discovered joy in creating Ma Po Tofu without the pork.

He described his experience in the New York Times:

“First I started a batch of the mixed grains. Then I slow-cooked about 20 of the peppercorns in oil (I was too lazy to grind them, another alternative), with three dried chiles. I removed them when the oil was fragrant (no one wants to bite on a peppercorn). Into that oil, I stirred about a quarter cup of the bean paste, which I realized for the first time is a cousin of miso.”

“I tasted the tofu thing, and added both soy sauce and salt. I scooped some grains in the dish – thanks to the black and brown rice and black sesame seeds they looked vaguely like pork (as it happened; no planning there, but I’m not lying either) – and topped it with the tofu mix. And the thing was so good I made it again two days later.”

Sounds like Mark learned being vegan at dinner’s not so bad either.

If you’re looking to attempt vegan ma po tofu, try this recipe any time of day.

Shayne Lamas recently celebrated her 24th birthday at Katsuya restaurant with actor dad Lorenzo Lamas and the fam.

Shayne won the 12th season of The Bachelor, but she and Matt Grant remain only “friends” now.

Such a shame.

If that’s real fur Shayne’s wearing, she might have a problem finding a new man because everybody knows real men dig ladies who fake it.

There’s no better way to let a guy know you’re that sweet, caring wife and motherly type than by refusing to wear an animal’s hide in the name of fashion.

Of course if Shayne’s wearing faux fur, we can relax and Leave It To The Lamas to set a good example of how to make a fashion statement.

What do you think?

Is Shayne faking it? Or is she wearing the real thing?

How does Michelle Obama keep her locks looking so sleek and shiny?

The First Lady has revealed she uses products under the Straight Finish line by Paul Labrecque.

What’s cool about this is that Labrecque has signed a pledge not to test on animals.

Not only is the Mrs. Obama fur free, even her coif is compassionate as well.

And Michelle’s stylist responsible for shaping her lovely bob, Yusef Williams, is a Labrecque hairstylist.

Ginnifer Goodwin has confirmed her Thanksgiving meal this year will be a Tofurky.

No surprise, considering she’s the spokesperson for Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey program.

About her recent visit to the Watkins Glen, New York sanctuary, Ginnifer said, “I grew fairly attached to a turkey named Magnolia. And there’s a badass goat who likes to play good-natured butting-heads games with humans. I dug her.’’

Every veg needs a badass goat when trying to explain to the most bullheaded meat eater why humans aren’t necessarily designed to eat animals.

Don’t forget you can have your own badass turkey for only $25 through the Farm Sanctuary Adopt-A-Turkey program.
