Ke$ha Drinks Blood From Heart On Stage (Video)

Unfortunately, it isn’t unheard of for a celebrity to make a gruesome appearance on stage involving animals, dead or alive.

Ozzy Osbourne bit the head off a bat, which landed him at a hospital for a rabies shot.

Russell Brand, now a vegetarian, used to smash dead animals on stage.

But would vegetarian Kesha use a real animal’s heart as a prop and drink blood from it during one of her performances?

Carnivore, animal, is she a cannibal?

“I feel like I’m getting younger. I think when we think of aging we think of slowly falling apart, and I think it’s so amazing that you can grow stronger, more vibrant and more youthful as you get older, just from what you choose to eat.”

The contestants on BBC’s television cooking show Masterchef got a lesson in meatless cooking when famed chef Yotam Ottolenghi stepped into the kitchens on the set during an episode where all meat products were banned.

Ottolenghi studied Philosophy before going on to learn cooking at London’s Cordon Bleu, then became a pastry chef for several London restaurants. For four years his weekly food column in The Guardian‘s weekend Saturday magazine was called “The New Vegetarian.”

During a previous episode of the New Zealand version of Masterchef, the show’s lone vegetarian chef was sent packing. So having an all-vegetarian challenge on the UK series was the perfect revenge for perhaps what may have be a veg-unfriendly environment on Masterchef.

Was it a good Meatless Monday? Or Meatless Madness?

Abbie Cornish On When She Went Vegetarian

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, March 17th, 2011 in Actresses, Food & Drink.

Growing up, Abbie Cornish always ate the meat and eggs from the animals her family raised. Although she was aware of where her food came from, she never learned what a vegetarian was until she was 13.

“I know in this day and age it’s hard to believe that,” Cornish said of her naivete. “I grew up on a farm, so I wasn’t indulged in magazines, newspapers, Internet, television. So for some reason I was never exposed to what a vegetarian was.”

Actually, given the fact some adults in the 40s and beyond don’t realize what’s acceptable for a vegetarian to eat and not eat, Cornish’s realization at 13 may actually be considered precocious.

The Biggest Loser‘s vegan coach Bob Harper has created his own line of nutritional supplements.

Expect to see Bob Harper’s Smart Success on the shelves sometime in April.

Vegetarians and vegans can also expect not to be disappointed, as Harper says on his blog he was careful to work with a manufacturer who adhered to his strict, animal-free standards.

“When I first started thinking about this project I had a very long laundry list of what I wanted for my products. Namely, I was looking for clinically proven key ingredients. I wanted it to be vegan and vegetarian friendly. It needed to be gluten free and dairy free. I wanted veggie caps. I wanted supportive ingredients like natural goji berry & pomegranate. The list went on and on – and the world-class company I teamed up with delivered on every single item.”
