Vegetarian Star

Larry King Live recently featured a segment that highlighted the dangers of consuming meat.

Bill Marler, attorney for Stephanie Smith, the woman paralyzed from the waist down after eating an e.coli tainted hamburger served on King’s guest panel.

“There are more Stephanies,” Marler said. “Grossly under calculated people who get sick…We’ve really gutted the ability for local and state health departments, CDC, to surveil food borne illness. There are a lot of Stephanies, a lot of Abbeys, a lot of Kevins-they just don’t necessarily get tied to a particular hamburger patty.”

Sad, frightening, and disgusting all in one.

There’s only one surefire way to monitor illness from eating meat-stay away from it! Grab a veggie patty instead.

Watch the clip for the entire segment.

Paris Hilton has gotten in trouble for her animal hoarding ways before.

Now she’s sparked bad attention again for the recent addition of a baby pig to her home.

During a recent Tweet, Paris said:

“http://twitpic.com/kuuwf – So excited for my new piglette to come home to me. I just picked out the cutest piggy from Patty at Royaldandie.com”

The pig, Paris named Miss Pigelette, is seen below.

According to TMZ, PETA has accused Paris of setting a “wretched example” by treating animals like they’re “as disposable as her friends and fiances.”

Ouch! That’s a little harsh.

We bet Paris has kept her pets longer than most of her boyfriends and fiances.

“The Chihuahuas, ferrets, and kinkajous she’s paraded through her home in the past were not accessories, and pot-bellied pigs aren’t either,” PETA added.

Pamela Anderson‘s animal friendly fragrance, Malibu, is set to hit the shelves in stores November 2009.

Malibu will be available in CVS Pharmacy, Rite Aid, Walgreens, Sears and Overstock.com and will feature a holiday gift set option with body lotion, shower gel and a purse-friendly mini-bottle.

The 1.7 ounce will cost $39 and the 3.4 ounce spray will cost for $49.

Pamela spoke to the Sun-Sentinel from her home over the phone about the upcoming fragrance.

SS: Is it true that Malibu fragrance is just the start of your own skin care roll-out of products? Are you planning on taking over the beauty field?
PA: “It’s the first of many products – sun care, of course; bubbles, lotions, potions…and emotions…Not the entire beauty field – just the hot ones.”

SS: Describe your Malibu life that the fragrance evokes?
PA: “Beachy, just woke up, get your kids to school look and still get into trouble now and then. Hot for boyfriend.”

SS: You’re such an animal activist. Are you sure your new fragrance wasn’t tested on cute little bunnies or mice?
PA: “Hell no. Not even ugly bunnies or mice.”

The world’s first discovered vegetarian spider, Bagheera kiplingi, who we’ll call B.K., has been making headlines for bypassing the bug deli and heading straight for the leaf salad bar.

“This is really the first spider known to specifically ‘hunt’ plants; it is also the first known to go after plants as a primary food source,” said study researcher Christopher Meehan of Villanova University in Pennsylvania.

But before we get too excited, it should be noted that B.K. “cheats” from time to time.

Although its primary diet is plants, the Central American spider will occasionally eat ant larvae.

After speculation and gathering evidence, the answer to Sarah Silverman‘s vegetarian status is finally revealed!

The funny gal thinks eating meat is anything but humorous.

Silverman has revealed in the November 2009 issue of Marie Claire what made her turn vegetarian:

“When I was 9 or 10 years old, my dad took me over to a neighboring farm to help get stuff for the meal. The farmer, Vic, told me to look at all the turkeys and pick one out. I saw a cute one with a silly walk and cried, ‘Him!’ Before my pointing finger had even dropped to my side, Vic had grabbed the turkey by the neck and slit [the animal’s] throat. Blood and feathers went flying. I had sentenced that turkey to death! Up until then, I didn’t know where meat came from—and I’ve been a vegetarian ever since.”

There’s an old saying that behind every good man is a good woman. Sarah’s boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel has given the props to animal welfare and vegetarianism on his show before.

Will we soon see a meatless Jimmy?

On one hand, it is possibly the most sexist piece of technology on the market to date.

Then again, it puts vegan gals on the top list of desired ladies men need to get the 411 on to get a date.

In an effort to push AMP Energy Drink, Pepsi has released an iphone application called Amp Up Before You Score, designed to teach guys about several types of women before making the move.

“Let’s say you meet a girl who’s way into being green. And you need a vegan restaurant. Stat. We’ve got you covered.”

The company Tweeted a statement, offering an apology for potential offensiveness.

“Our app tried 2 show the humorous lengths guys go 2 pick up women. We apologize if it’s in bad taste & appreciate your feedback.”

Hey. Maybe that poor tool looking to score with a vegan girl will find the food enjoyable and stop eating so much meat.

Several other girl types the iapp helps with are the Bookworm, The Indie Girl, and the Cougar.
