Heather Mills must be one of those self-punishing workaholics.
Besides her charitable work with children in the Bronx, she recently opened her own vegan restaurant, V Bites, and took over the vegetarian food company Redwood Foods.
Now, Heather has started her own sustainable clothing line, B@1, which will feature recycled charity shop clothing.
The line will launch August 27th at the Highlands Hollywood in association with the charity event Celebrity Catwalk.
Be sure to check the website for B@1 frequently, as more updates are promised to appear.

Comments Off on NYC Prep’s Taylor DiGiovanni Is A Vegan Elite
Bravo
Did you catch last night’s season finale of NYC Prep?
If you’ve been following the Bravo reality TV series that features NYC’s elite high school students spending their time partying and attending charitable events, you know that Taylor DiGiovanni represents the vegan crew!
What’s even better, is that Taylor gets props from her crowd.
Fellow NYC Prep star Camille Isobel Hughes described her by saying, “Taylor’s the most unique person I’ve ever met. She just does whatever she wants whenever she wants it, and is totally nonchalant.”
Oh, yeah.
Never met a vegan who just followed the crowd.
Check out Taylor’s video describing herself.

Comments Off on Nia Long Gets Skinned On The Subway In PETA Anti-Fur Ad
Also an advertisement for photoshopping, the latest PETA anti-fur ad features actress Nia Long in her birthday suit on the subway.
Seems like the photoshop user got a little crazy and wiped away her belly button. And chiseled off some of her calf.
Were they trying to emphasize how animals are skinned to get fur by scraping away some of Nia?
“Be comfortable in your own skin,” reads the ad. “And let animals keep theirs.”
The actress who’s had roles in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Third Watch, and Are We There Yet? has given up some of her flesh. Now, there’s no reason for an animal to give any of theirs.

Comments Off on Pamela Anderson Cooking Vegan Now
In a recent interview with Britain’s Elle magazine, Pamela Anderson announced she’s leaning into the vegan zone.
“I’ve never dieted, but I’m cooking vegan now and I think that helps.”
Way to go for Pamela!
A longtime animal rights activist and vegetarian, Pamela can make an even bigger impact in the veg community if she decides to go completely animal-free!
Cooking vegan isn’t hard, but it might take some time in the kitchen for you to get it down right. A few good cookbooks are helpful, like Vegan Planet, The Joy Of Vegan Baking, or The Voluptuous Vegan.
Here’s a list of a few more vegan cookbooks to get you started.

Comments Off on Bethenny Frankel Mocks Gwyneth Paltrow’s Cooking Skills
Well…
We certainly know who thinks she’s the “Real Housewife” here.
Bethenny Frankel recently took the opportunity to diss Gwyneth Paltrow’s attempts to demonstrate cooking dishes.
From nydailynews.com:
“I’d rather staple my eyelids shut than watch Gwyneth cook,” the chef told us during the launch of her bottled Skinnygirl Margaritas at the Montauk Yacht Club on Saturday.
She added, “Gwyneth is afraid to [reveal] who she really is – she’s so manhandled by publicists and managers. Her show would be way too boring to watch.”
It’s getting hot in the kitchen!
We have chided Gwyneth so many times for her professing to follow a vegetarian diet, then recommending all sorts of meaty dishes on her Goop.com website.
On the other hand, Bethenny has long been a favorite celebrity chef for including so many vegetarian and vegan recipes in her repertoire.
Neither are vegetarians. But at least Bethenny doesn’t pretend to be. Not to mention she’ll be showing her homemade buns for the animals real soon.
BTW, here’s an example of one of Bethenny’s vegan delights, Low Fat Fudge Chocolate Chip Muffins. Grab the recipe, here!

Comments Off on Bob Barker Blogs For Bears On CNN.Com
Bob Barker has made ongoing efforts to end the suffering of the caged bears on display at various tourist attractions in Cherokee, North Carolina, including meeting with Principal Chief Michell Hicks of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Nation.
Now he’s taking his stance on Larry King’s CNN blog in hopes of reaching an even bigger audience.
“The good people of Cherokee welcomed me warmly, and many told me they agreed that the bears are kept in deplorable conditions. Bears are very intelligent, active and curious animals. They need room to roam, natural surroundings to investigate and opportunities to forage, climb and dig dens.”
“Earlier in my career, I hosted a show called Truth or Consequences. I closed the show by saying, “… hoping all your consequences are happy ones!” I hope with all my heart that Chief Hicks and the tribal council will make the consequences for the Cherokee bears happy ones. Until then, my heart and my conscience won’t allow me to do anything but ask people to stay away from Cherokee and voice their support for allowing the bears to retire to a sanctuary.”
