USA Presents The White Collar Shirt Bar

Tiffani Thiesen has fallen to the call of the cow and is blaming it all on her in utero growth.

She only has three months left until her first child is due.

At the USA Network and Vanity Fair bash in New York, she told People magazine, “I was a vegetarian for many, many, many years and all of a sudden I started to crave red meat.”

If that’s not enough to send a vegetarian mother into early labor, Tiffani revealed she had just devoured some animal before making her grand public appearance.

“Crazy enough, I had a steak before I left tonight and I would never have eaten one before. One day I just woke up and craved meat.”

Crazy, indeed.

One study published in Hypertension found children of women who consumed a diet high in animal protein and low in carbohydrates had higher blood pressure as adults.

Hopefully, in three months Tiffani will be back on the veggie wagon and little baby will never be forced to eat pureed beanie weenies when it starts to show some incisors.

“Jack’s Mannequin” Andrew McMahon Not Veggie Anymore

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, February 26th, 2010 in Food & Drink, Male Musicians, Male Singers.

Andrew McMahon Visits fuse TV's "Distortion"

Andrew McMahon, musician for the bands Something’s Corporate and Jack’s Mannequin, tried going veg on his last tour, but that lasted as long as a one hit wonder.

From The Phillyist:

We understand that you went vegetarian on that tour, so we have to ask: Did you have trouble resisting the urge to head to Jim’s for a greasy, diet-busting cheesesteak?

“I guess I break all sorts of promises in Philly. Haha. I’m definitely not a veggie anymore, though I do lean that direction. [But] I’ve never been a red meat dude, so cheesesteaks aren’t really my thing, as sacrilegious as that is to admit to a local.”

Vegetarian Star would love to say what happens in Philly stays in Philly, but unfortunately, it gets published on blogs that like to talk about musicians that give into greasesteaks when no one is looking.

Luckily, Andrew’s flexitarian ways that bend him more towards vegetarianism save him from being completely ribbed.

Andrew and the rest of Jack’s Mannequin will be performing at the Electric Factory in Philly. Tickets are sold out, but if you offer someone in the city a great tasting faux cheesesteak, you might score yourself a seat.

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, February 25th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Recipes, Videos.

Gordon Ramsay may be trying to make up with vegetarians after a slew of negative comments about the diet.

However, an experience that occurred while cooking a vegan dish may make him even more bitter.

The Kitchen Nightmares chef nicked his finger while he was cutting vegetables on Ellen DeGeneres‘ show.

Gordon seemed surprised that a great cook like himself would ever make such a mistake.

“I haven’t cut myself in 10 years,” he said.

Grab the recipe for Spicy Vegetable Stir Fry containing fresh carrots, mushrooms and other vegetables sauteed in agave sweetened sauce, but don’t hurt yourself like Gordon.

Knives are sharp. Accidents happen. Be careful in the kitchen!

Leona Lewis Fashion Line–Shoes Making Brand Difficult To Create

Love Ball London - Outside Arrivals

Leona Lewis‘ fashion line may have hit a little bump.

Though the singer still has plans to have a clothing and shoes brand created, it’s been difficult finding ethical and vegetarian friendly supplies.

“I’m trying to make that happen as soon as I can,” Lewis told UK Vogue.

“It’s a challenge – mostly with shoes – as I don’t wear any leather and am very ethical about what I wear.”

Despite the challenges, Leona’s love of both animals and fashion will most likely give her the motivation to continue to pursue the clothing line that Leona wishes to be both trendy and affordable.

“I really enjoy fashion and I love being creative. I work with a couple of stylists but I love fashion so am always looking online and in magazines for inspiration,” she said.

Loved to know what else Hannah creates in the kitchen.

Is there any chance of a vegetarian Olympian cookbook in the works?

InStyle & 20th Century Fox Celebrate Glee s Golden Globe Nominations

Cory Monteith, known for playing Finn Hudson on Glee, discussed his favorite spots to eat, relax and enjoy life in Vancouver.

Cory says vegetarian restaurant The Naam is the best place to healthily pig out…even if he only eats there every once in awhile.

“I like to eat healthy sometimes. But I like to eat incredibly badly sometimes too. I try to balance it out. If you go to The Naam, you can at least feel as though the large stomach full of food you’re sleeping on is at least vegetables.”

Of course, The Naam has more than broccoli and carrots.

Watch the video below to learn Cory’s other favorite spots.
