Comments Off on Some Men Have To Pad Their Pants With Extra “Meat”
Clearly someone is overcompensating.
Pamela Anderson, actress, KFC protester and animal rights advocate, was holding a press conference in Australia to promote her new reality T.V. show, Pam: Girl On The Loose. All was going well.
One reporter from the audience, who appeared to be nothing more than a starstruck fan as well as a journalist, pulled his pants down and asked Pam to sign his red underwear. Weird. But still all was going well.
Pam signed and as she was finishing up, the journalist pulled out a chicken drumstick from his pants and proceeded to eat it, obviously mocking Anderson for her views on animal rights and KFC. She has recently protested against KFC Australia for its use of factory farmed chickens. She’s already won a battle with KFC Canada and they’ve since agreed to offer a faux vegan chicken sandwich.
But for Anderson, it’s just part of the job.
“This is what happens,” she said. “See, I create this image and this is what happens.”
We can’t think of a reason why a seemingly articulate and intelligent man would resort to such grade school prank tactics. Could it be that some men just feel the need to pad their pants with extra meat?

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure – the privilege is mine
Whoa! Even the most angst filled emo teen would probably turn off that one. But for some reason, we have staff that really dig the 80s song, “There is a light that never goes out,” by The Smiths. Quote from guitarist Johnny Marr:
“I’ve been a vegetarian since my teens. It would’ve been pretty tough to be singing Meat is Murder with The Smiths while stuffing down burgers in your spare time.”

Like OMG, did you hear that Tina and Jim broke up, Marissa is pregnant, and Alicia Silverstone was eating tuna?!
Yes, this is how rumors get started people. We don’t know if this one is true or not, but with all the celebs seemingly having two faces lately, one for the veg heads and the other for the omnivores, we’re not so sure anymore.
Alicia Silverstone was reported to have grabbed a…tuna sandwich…while in the company of her husband, Christopher Jarecki, before heading off to a wedding at a private residence. But we have questions about this speculation…
Even after clicking on the pictures and seeing them in large view, we can’t tell what the sandwich is. It’s still in the container and you can’t make out the print. And there’s not one pic of either of them (Christopher is a vegetarian as well) putting anything in their mouths. It could have even been a veggie faux tuna sandwich.
We’re keeping mum on this one and hope our favorite Raw Balls girl didn’t cheat.

KFC has never really “done chickens right,” but it looks like Sophie Monk is doing vegetarian really, really wrong.
The Australian actress, who has worked with PETA (which of course means taken off her clothes) and claims to have been a vegetarian since she was 18, was spotted exiting a Hollywood Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant, complete with bags of what looks to be non vegetarian food goodies in her arms. And since California isn’t Canada, there’s no way she was carrying the new vegan chicken sandwich.
A few months earlier, she was quoted as saying:
“I think the message to KFC eaters [is that] you should think about what you’re eating. If you’re eating deformed animals that are being induced by hormones, you know, it can not be good for you.”
Maybe she’s not getting her own message.
Yes, KFC has been thanked by vegans, but this isn’t the best way to do it.

Russell Simmons has become the latest vegan celebrity to bite into Kentucky Fried Chicken’s new vegan faux chicken sandwich, which currently is only available in Canada.
He was one of many stars who worked with PETA to convince KFC to treat its chickens better before sending them off the slaughter. As part of the deal, KFC now offers a vegan chicken sandwich.
“As I bit into the delicious un-chicken and lettuce wrap, I remembered how frustrating and seemingly unfruitful mediating those talks between KFC, their supplier Yum Brands, and PETA were.”
“I have long been concerned with promoting better eating habits for myself, my family, my community and the planet. I am saddened by the fact that the most accessible and affordable food to low income communities is fast primarily unhealthy food. Therefore, I view KFC’s Canadian launch of this new vegan sandwich as the first step toward a more compassionate KFC and hope it will be made available here in the United States for all to enjoy.”
“If each one of us has a more watchful eye where we step, we will create a new earth where the abuse of the planet, the animals, and each other will be less prevalent. For that I thank KFC in Canada for making a conscious effort to support the growth of this new earth.”

Lisa Bonet and daughter Zoe Kravitz were recently spotted snacking at a vegan restaurant in NY. Bonet will be joining the cast of ABC’s Life on Mars on October 9th.
We expect she’s been pretty busy lately, which is why she took a break from acting not so long ago. The latest addition to the family, Lola Iolani Momoa, is only 13 months old!
Those of us who grew up watching T.V. in the 80s remember Bonet playing Denise Huxtable on The Cosby Show, as well as A Different World.

While it’s true that some stars credit eliminating certain foods from their diet to better performance, Avril Lavigne’s vegetarian intentions are not about enhancing her singing.
“It’s a lifestyle,” she said.
Much of her lifestyle centers on eatings lots and lots of pizza topped with olives.
“Yes, it’s true. I love pizza. There’s a pizza joint in Napanee, Ontario, where I would go during lunch break from school, and I would eat as much pizza as I wanted. They named a pizza after me.”
With Sk8ter Boi girl being only 5’3″ it’s hard to imagine walking in and ordering the “Xtra-Large Avril Lavigne.”

Pamela Anderson is quite the vocal vegan, but when she’s not calling a particular carnivore b$%ch or wh#$e, she can be found giving more positive reinforcement, such as letting everyone know where the best vegan food establishments are in L.A.
“Los Angeles is the easiest place in the world to eat vegan,” she told the LA Times. A lot of people know about the great meatless entrees at Real Food Daily and Newsroom Cafe, but there are some other places that have very unique menus.”
So if you’re in L.A. with some non veg friends and need to munch at a place that’s not as well known for tempeh, Anderson has been kind enough to point you in the right direction.
Pure Luck:
Fried pickles, vegan sloppy joes and BBQ sandwiches. And they cook with jack fruit, which is an amazing fruit they use to make the mock meat tangy.
Astro Burger
If you are a fast food junkie you can always count on the Astro Burger on Melrose near Paramount Studios for veggie chili dogs and soy chicken fajitas.
If you read the rest of Pamela’s list, you can actually vote on whether or not you think she knows what she’s talking about, at least when it comes to good vegan food.
