Stars can get picky with their demands during concerts, but at least some are demanding the healthy stuff.
According to the San Diego Reader blog, The Steve Miller Band likes to sip on a gallon of homemade vegetarian soup in their hotels, for example.
Everclear is slightly more demanding as their hotel room bill might include a veggie tray with hummus and a liter of Soya Milk.
To read about other snacks, healthy or non-healthy, veg or non-veg, the stars prefer, go here.

For all the 80s babies or those that love 80s music (or even early 90s) Bryan Adams’ love songs and ballads (and even his rock songs) made the decade with memories.
The singer spoke to PETA about vegetarianism and animal rights:
What made you decide to get involved with PETA?
I’ve been vegetarian for about 17-18 years now, since I was about 28. And of course, my motto has always been “If you love animals, don’t eat them”.
What do you think about the killing of baby seals for their fur in Canada?
I’m opposed to fur and any kind of use of animal products. I don’t eat them, and I don’t wear them. I’m not for the killing of any creature – whether it be seals, cows, dogs, anything. So anytime it comes to any kind of animal cruelty, I’m totally against it.

Move over Danica Patrick. A new female is taking the wheel for race car driving and being ecologically responsible about it as well.
Leilani Munter, who served as a stunt double for Catherine Zeta-Jones, is a NASCAR driver who describes her mission as “a vegetarian hippie chick race-car driver’s journey to be carbon neutral.”
Besides being a veggie goody two shoes, for every race she runs, she buys an acre of rain forest, to offset the carbon footprint. She has an energy solar home with rainwater storage, solar water heating and composting systems. In addition, she’s spent the past several weeks on Capitol Hill showing her support for Joe Lieberman’s Climate Security Act. While doing all of this, she still manages to blog at Carbon-Free Girl.com
“There are some fans it rubs the wrong way: They don’t like it that I’m promoting An Inconvenient Truth because they think I’m a weird, greenie, vegetarian chick from California.”
“And I get letters from people asking, ‘Can you tell me how to go about ‘adopting’ an acre of rainforest?’ And every time I get an e-mail like that I feel like I’m making a small effect … even though I’m not in the top level of IndyCar or NASCAR, where I could be reaching a lot more people.”
Only 32 years young, she has been on the cover of several magazines, plus featured in Vogue and Esquire, and FHM gave her the “the hottest woman in NASCAR” title. Hopefully, “the greenest driver in NASCAR,” will continue to have influence on people involved with the sport.

Whoopi Goldberg hosted the 62nd Annual Tony Awards this year with PureOlogy Serious Colour Care being the haircare sponsor of the event.
Pureology Products are marketed as both cruelty free and vegan and a source says Miss Goldberg was very excited to learn a product she was trying on that night, NanoWorks Shampoo and Condition, was vegan.
Although we are not sure if Goldberg is a vegetarian, we surely hope this excitement spreads into other areas of her life and she chooses more products that are vegan, green, and earth and animal friendly for her lifestyle!

Morrissey is quite serious about spreading the vegetarian news. While playing at the O2 Wireless Festival he wasn’t too thrilled to see the V.I.P. area so close to the barbecue, even requesting that the barbecue be turned off.
This request wasn’t granted, but that still didn’t stop him from posting, “Meat Is Murder,” signs in the barbecue area.

Vegan Rocker Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders opened a vegan restaurant a little under a year ago, The Vegiterranean, in her hometown of Akron, Ohio. It features vegan Italian food such as vegetarian Penne Chicken Pesto – Gardein (Garden Grown-therefore plant based) Chicken with Pesto and Penne Pasta and many other Italian dishes you can get with “Rawmesan” toppings.
Last weekend, The Vegiterranean, put 2 of its vegan burgers in the National Hamburger Festival to show who’s really got the (un) beef.
Before the festival began, Executive Chef Scott Jones told the Akron Beacon Journal, The Vegiterranean’s burgers were, “packed full of goodness and love,” in addition to being 100 percent free of any animal products, cholesterol, saturated fat, and trans fat.

Comments Off on Liz Hurley Targeted For “Healthy” Dinners Containing Meat
Celebrities can be either praised or condemned by groups like PETA for their actions involving animals and the planet. In this case, Liz Hurley is getting the latter of the treatment as she is being criticized for using meat in her upcoming line of pre-packaged meals, advertised as both “healthy” and “low-fat.”
“Animal products, which are typically loaded with saturated fat and cholesterol, are far from being healthy,” said Yvonne Taylor, PETA representative, in a written letter.
“Won’t you please consider promoting a truly healthy, low-fat vegetarian diet? A vegetarian diet not only reduces the risk of cancer, heart disease and numerous other life-threatening illnesses but is also a far kinder diet for animals who need not have their lives cut short to please our palates.”
PETA is also urging Hurley to spare the life of a piglet that she is rearing on her personal farm.
“Just as you would cringe at shipping Emily (Hurley’s dog) off to slaughter, you should also be reluctant to betray a pig who you have cared for and befriended.”
No word on the type of meal Hurley plans to use the piglet for, but we can’t help but agree with the last statement and think Hurley should keep pets off the plate.
