Vegetarian Star

Life and Style hears that Madonna is a fan of BabyCakes bakery.

The magazine recently featured an article, Cupcakes Stars Love, and listed the Material Girl as liking the vanilla cupcake with lemon frosting.

Wonder if Madonna requested bundles of these desserts to make her Sticky and Sweet tour even sweeter.

Stella McCartney thinks the fashion world is changing with the times.

Contact Music hints that there’s a demand for more ethical clothing and that other designers are catching onto what Stella discovered long ago–cruelty never looks cute.

“Stella McCartney thinks the fashion world is finally embracing ethical practices. The designer – who is a strict vegetarian and animal rights campaigner – has always used responsible production for her creations and now says everyone else is starting to follow suit.”

Stella said she hopes other designers are catching up and that she is constantly “learning all the time.”

One such example in Stella’s cruelty-free education is learning to design a shoe without leather that people (at least some people) can afford.

Stella had once said, “Our shoes are 70 percent more expensive to make because we don’t use conventional methods. When you’re not working with leather, you really have to think outside the box.”

What lessons will Stella take with her to create next season’s fashions?

Eva Longoria loves to cook for both herself and hubby Tony Parker and when it comes to finding substitutions for traditional ingredients used in either Mexican or French cuisine, Longoria is never out of options.

“There’s always a healthier way to present food without compromising the taste,” Longoria said, according to Energy Times.

Although some of her favorite recipes might look unhealthy at first, a few tweaks here and there can cut harmful things like saturated fat and cholesterol, while maintaining taste.

“There are a lot of oils and lard and butters, and there’s so much that you can substitute that with.”

Longoria uses soy butter in the kitchen and also prefers heart healthy olive oil.

She once spent two years as a full time vegetarian to “cleanse her system.”

Knowing how good soy butter taste on vegetables, bread or any other item that calls for real butter, you’d think it’d make her go back.

The Travel Channel recently featured veggie burgers in its Burger Paradise show.

According to the clip, the first official veggie burger was created in London in the 80s.

A southern California restaurant that only serves veggie burgers was featured.

“Vegetarians and vegans love their burgers just as much as meat-eaters. Packed with fresh vegetable, bean, rice and soy ingredients, each veggie patty is jam-packed with flavor. Established in 1977, The Spot has been a fixture in the Hermosa Beach community ever since. Who are the biggest customers? According to owner Tonya Beaudet, carnivores come in flocks to sample the veggie burger’s unique flavor.”

“The Spot” in Hermosa offers a twist to the traditional deep fried french fry side–a scoop of wholesome brown rice instead.

Aimee Teegarden calls herself a vegetarian “heading towards vegan.”

Although Mother Nature Network didn’t give more details about Teegarden’s vegan journey (is there a set date, ingredients to eliminate at certain steps?), one could make the assumption that the Friday Night Lights actress is making small changes in her life so she can one day live comfortably and healthy as a vegan versus making drastic changes like focusing on eliminating products instead of adding new ones.

Or maybe she’s having second thoughts about what goes on in the dairy industry, but still hasn’t found the right cheese substitute to satisfy those insane moo cravings.

If you’re an “almost vegan,” what non-vegan products are you hoping to give up?

Karl Lagerfeld is digging the fake fur scene!

The designer recently praised fake fur used in the Channel fall 2010 runway show.

Has Lagerfeld experienced a change in heart?

As Allure discusses, Lagerfeld was quoted by The Telegraph saying discussing the ethics of fur in fashion was “childish.”

But the beauty of faux has caught Lagerfeld’s attention and if he’s not doing it for ethics, at least he’s appreciating the aesthetic value of using material from something other than an animal.

Plus, the new fake fur is now soft and cuddly, according to Lagerfeld.

“Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing—not one piece,” said Lagerfeld. “That was the idea. The material is beautiful and new in a way, because it was not that perfect before. It looked vaguely ok, but if you touched it, it was stiff and harsh. Now, it’s not like that at all anymore.”

On another positive note, Allure says Lagerfeld also doesn’t eat meat.

Bob Harper is throwing down the gauntlet.

The Biggest Loser coach is asking his Twitter followers to be as vegan as they possibly can be.

“Your Challenge today is to go the next 24 hours, starting now eliminating ALL animal products. Good for your heart AND the environment!!”

There are so many great tasting foods that aren’t meat, dairy or poultry.

Plus, there’s plenty of faux substitutes for those who like their beef and cheese.

The 24 hour challenge can easily be extended to 24 days, 24 weeks, 24 months and forever!
