Pop Crunch does a regular feature where Sarah does a hilarious, sarcastic take on current celebrity events.
Since we love Sarah’s feature on Pop Crunch, it’s cool to learn that Sarah is a vegetarian.
Watch as Sarah gives the lowdown on celebrity vegetarians, plus a little sermon about the environmental impact of meat during her National Hug A Vegetarian Day clip.
Holly Madison has said in the past she always fakes it.
So we’re really hoping she was faking it with Carrot Top (who every woman probably has to fake it with-haha, just kidding, love you Carrot Top) when she wore this fur coat at the Minus 5 Ice Bar at the Mandaly Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
Holly and Carrot Top were crowned Ice Queen and King.
When Holly was approached to do an anti-fur PSA, she had said:
“I’m not a hardcore PETA person. When they approached me to do the ad, I made it clear to them that I’m not a vegetarian, and I’ve got leather seats in my car. I said I would support that ad campaign, but I wasn’t their model citizen, and they were fine with that.”
Maybe Holly’s not a hardcore anti-fur person either.
Comments Off on Michael Jackson Honored By Hindus For Vegetarianism
So, aside from those chicken eating allegations by Magic Johnson, Michael Jackson tried to live a vegetarian lifestyle.
He’s being honored for this, and several other lifestyle choices by his Hindu fans.
“According to reports, he was reading India’s first Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s poems during the last days of his life and he collaborated with Oscar winner A. R. Rahman,” said Hindu statesman Rajad Zed. “He reportedly learned how to meditate and was vegetarian.”
Michael’s Hindu fans dedicated a pind-daan ritual to him at the holy city of Bodh Gaya as part of last week’s pitrapaksh festivities.
The ceremony was conducted at the Vishnupad Temple on the banks of the Falgu River in Bihar, and led by a priest, who is a devotee of Michael.
Zed added, “Several celebrities have offered prayers here in the past for the salvation of their ancestors, including the Bollywood superstar Shatrughan Sinha.”
“Hindus believe that pind-daan, performed during the fortnight long pitrapaksh period, brings relief to departed souls. Around one million people from all over the world congregate in Bodh Gaya for pind-daan annually. After taking bath in a nearby kund (reservoir), the pilgrims perform pind-daan, involving religious rites for the peace of souls of one’s parents and ancestors.”
Looks like fans all over the world are still celebrating, grieving, and remembering one of the greatest pop stars ever.

Country music handsome chap Brad Paisley likes vegan food!
Although he still has his share of chicken tikka masala and fried lamb fritters at the Indian buffets, Brad’s developed a taste for Real Food Daily, thanks to his wife, actress Kimberly Williams, who’s had roles in According to Jim and We Are Marshall.
“Another place we love to hit is Real Food Daily in Santa Monica. I would never have walked into a vegetarian restaurant before I met my wife. I was raised in West Virginia, and a well-balanced meal meant French fries and a hamburger. But now I’ll order a portabello mushroom burger on a nine-grain bun and it’s an awesome sandwich.”
“Regarding people, it’s all about transition. Just like any technology or product that is replaced by a better or newer one, there is always a transition that happens. The old (animal products) company would gradually let people go as the demand for their products decreases, while the new (vegan products/plant-based foods) company would gradually hire more folks as their demand increases. Of course, sometimes it’s messy, and there’s a disproportionate amount of firings to hirings. But this transition will NOT happen overnight. So I think we would see a gradual shift as described here.”
“Regarding animals, there are two main points to remember; the only reason we have the 15+ billion farm animals going through the system each year is because humans have gone to tremendous extremes to unnaturally breed these animals. So, again, as the demand lessens, so will their extreme “quotas” of reproduction.”
“Also, the overwhelming majority of these billions are chickens, and if a chicken has been raised as a “broiler” for food, then their life span would typically be only one year, presuming they were spared a trip to the slaughterhouse in this transition scenario. But truthfully, I think the transition will be gradual enough that they will cut back on the rate of breeding long before they would have all of these farm animals just hanging around somewhere.”
—-drummer Bobby Rock from his blog, on the fate of people and animals if the world turned vegan.
