Comments Off on Amy Winehouse Cats Go To Feline Homeless Shelter
Not even 30 years old and she’s already a crazy cat lady.
Amy Winehouse has opened her home to several cats over the past months.
Now that she’s leaving her home in London, she’s decided to dump the kitties at the local shelter.
“Amy was pretty upset about it because she loved them dearly, but she had to give them up,” a source told The Sun. “They were climbing all over the place, breeding and generally getting out of control.”
But isn’t “breeding,” and “out of control” usually what takes place at the Winehouse residence?
Thumbs up for Amy making the decision to invite animals into her life.
Thumbs down for not realizing the amount of time required to care for one, let alone multiple cats.
Thumbs up for taking the animals to the shelter instead of letting them run loose.
Thumbs…oh, never mind. Too much Amy Winehouse analyzing and you’ll have yourself in rehab.
Hopefully, Amy at least got the animals spayed or neutered and they all will find loving homes.
Cause there’s just not enough room for all of them in that beehive.
Comments Off on Bernadette Peters “The View” 2nd Annual Mutt Show
Bernadette Peters (who’s due for a slice of vegan birthday cake this month) will appear on The View Friday February 19 as part of the show’s 2nd annual special to encourage adoption.
Peters is reportedly bringing her dog along with her as well.
As a spinoff to the Westminster Dog Show, The View will present their version of a dog show, the Mutt Show.
Five mutts up for adoption will be competing and one lucky four legged friend will be awarded the Pedigree Dogs Rule award.
According to Broadway World, Peters will also promote her second children’s book, Stella is a Star. Proceeds from the book are said to go towards Broadway Barks, an organization Peters co-founded with Mary Tyler Moore, that helps find homes for shelter animals.
Bollywood beauty and ex Miss Universe Lara Dutta has been a vegetarian for 5 years and says she eats 5-6 small meals a day to stay healthy.
She gave Mid-Day an example of how she might start the day before filming scenes for the upcoming film Housefull, and high protein nuts are a big part of her day.
“Breakfast usually depends on the kind of day I’m going to have. If I’m looking forward to a relaxed day at home then I stick to eating raw food, say a bowl of papaya and maybe an apple, till about noon. If I’m shooting, then I have a big bowl of porridge with some nuts sprinkled on top, or maybe an omelette made from egg whites with whole-wheat toast. I do have one rule though — the first thing that goes into my system should not be caffeine.”
Lunch consists of more nuts–but never mixed with fruit!
“I usually eat a small cube of cheese and a few nuts like badams, pistas and walnuts. I never mix nuts with dried fruits, as it doesn’t suit me. I might even eat some low-fat yoghurt.”
Dutta tries to restrain herself at dinner time, but admits she loves her pasta too!

Comments Off on Jessica Alba Child Honor Marie–Almond Milk Baby
Jessica Alba is extremely careful of what she puts in her daughter’s body.
Even though she had a bad experience with the icing, last Easter she made Honor Marie organic, vegan cupcakes.
And when it comes to milk, it’s non-dairy for baby as well.
“All of her pasta is spelt or quinoa,” she told hlifemedia. “It’s been a way to introduce protein in her diet, and she only drinks almond milk that has no sugar in it. And everything is organic.”

Olympic skater Johnny Weir has been targeted by animal rights activists for a costume containing fur he wore earlier in the season.
Weir calls them “crazy fur people,” and says they are attacking him as a publicity stunt.
“I’m an easy person to pick on because I’m very open I like fur and I like things that come from dead animals. It’s easy put your cause against an athlete going to the Olympic Games, it’s good free publicity for these activists.”
Although the last rush of protests prompted Weir to switch outfits, he insists if the mood is right, he’ll wear fur on the ice again.
“If I still want to compete, if I felt the costume needed fur, I would wear fur. If all this happens again I get a bodyguard.”
Of course, if Weir stops wearing real fur and buys synthetic, he can save money and ditch the 300 lb. (faux) beefy bouncer.
