“I’m horrified watching Jamie Oliver castrate calves and eat their b*****ks, how low can you go, he says they taste like Scampi!”
Director of Animal Aid, Andrew Taylor, agrees with Heather.
“The public is convinced Jamie Oliver is the real deal but hopefully this barbaric act will open their eyes to the fact he is a phony when it comes to animal welfare,” Taylor said. “He pretends he cares about animals but this makes an utter mockery of that. Castrating cattle in this way is vicious and grotesque and he’s giving credibility to an ugly trade. If he thinks this is good prime time TV he has been duped.”
Jamie’s rep defended the chef’s actions by saying the show is meant to show the British public the different aspects of American cuisine and life.
A regular part of American cuisine and life? That’s it! Cow testicles must have been the “mystery meat” in your school lunches growing up.
“Jamie is on his American road trip to observe and to learn and to show the viewing public some parts of America they might not know about. Jamie is well-known for his championing of better welfare for animals and has had awards from many animal welfare groups.”
Guess Jamie thinks his awards are a free get out of animal cruelty jail pass.
Actress Kate Hudson hangs out at the Stella McCartney Store in NYC to celebrate Fashion’s Night Out, an evening meant to encourage shopping and pour money back into the economy.
The Stella McCartney store not only encouraged a sustainable economy, but sustainable eating as well.
A vegetarian food truck was on hand to provide meatless goodies and drinks to shoppers.
Think Kate enjoyed some vegetarian finger food?
And where is A-Rod, anyway? The K-Rod pact cannot be broken up for longer than, like, 10 minutes…
Two vegan food loving ladies are gracing the cover of the October issue of Redbook magazine, Alicia Silverstone and Connie Britton.
If Ashlee Simpson would start packing veggie ham and cheese on the set of Melrose Place, it’d be a trio.
Friday Night Lights principal and mother Britton told MTV.com she stays fit by eating vegan food.
“If I weren’t in this business, I think I would be aging differently,” Connie said. “I’m fortunate because, for whatever reason, I’ve never looked at myself as, ‘Oh, my gosh, I have to be the most beautiful.’ I’ve always worked from the inside out, not the outside in.”
We aren’t sure if Connie is a vegan or just knows the health value of incorporating these foods into her diet.
At any rate, great for her!
Animal-free foods are the best way to keep you looking beautiful inside and out.
The October issue of Redbook hits the stands September 22.
Eli Roth may beat Nazis with baseball bats in Inglourious Basterds, but he would never dream of doing so to anyone in real life-including an animal.
He’s teamed up with PETA to do a PSA, advising people to report abuse on animals.
Sharing your drink with one is completely optional.
“If you know of someone who’s abusing an animal, please tell the police or tell an adult,” Roth said. “People who get away with hurting animals often turn their violence against people, and that’s a cycle we need to break.”
Rapper MURS took time to Tweet before grabbing some vegan food and taking some much needed R & R.
“tuck tuck tiggiddy tuckered out. going home for a nap. after a vegan chilli dog stop.”
A vegan chili dog sounds pretty easy to whip up.
After all, how hard can it be to grab some veg chili, slop it on a wiener, and place it between a bun?
We can’t get enough of Lightlife Smart Chili, which comes in pouch form, ready to heat in the microwave and serve.
While you’re in territory Lightlife, grab one of their many varieties of vegan hot dogs from Tofu Pups to Smart Dogs to Smart Dogs Jumbo-if you like your wieners big.
Grab a bun and top with fixings…There’s never been a recipe more convenient or tastier.
Exactly what you need during those tuckered out times.
We recently learned that True Blood star Michelle Forbes has been a vegetarian for a long time-30 years!
So when it came time to film the season 2 finale of True Blood, Michelle was a little queasy about the set surroundings when it came to the “Meat Tree.”
I assume you weren’t cutting into an actual human heart. Please tell me you weren’t.
Michelle: No, no. I’m not sure what it was, but we all got creeped out when I cut into it because it made the worst squishing sound in the world. The irony is that I’m a 30-year vegetarian. I’ve been an animal activist my entire life, so the role of Maryann has been a bit challenging – especially with the lovely meat tree – Di-meat-tree, as he became known.
That tree is repulsive. Tell us about it.
Michelle: It was filled with real meat and reeked as the weeks wore on. There are bobcats and coyotes roaming around that ranch where we shoot, so they had someone sit by the tree with a gun at night to protect it.
Real meat? Men willing and able to shoot and kill more animals to protect the already dead ones?
True-ly uncool, especially since fake meat props would be easy to create, as such was done with the vampire horror flick Moby starred in, Suck.
Here’s the promo for True Blood Season 2 finale, which airs September 13 on HBO at 9PM.
Comments Off on Janet Jackson, Michael Vegetarian Lunch Memories: Harper’s Bazaar
Janet Jackson has come public with the first interview since her brother Michael Jackson died in June.
In the October issue of Harper’s Bazaar, Janet discusses how her and Michael would find the time to have vegetarian lunches together, during the filming of the 1995 music video Scream.
“We would organize our days together and go out for vegetarian lunch at the Golden Temple in L.A.,” Janet said. “We were so busy, but we’d make time.”
