A List Of Famous Vegetarians

There are so many famous vegetarians that to list them all would be quite a feat. Therefore, I’ve included some of the most recognized and revered.

Their reasons for a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle vary which you can hear in their own voices below.

• Paul McCartney

  The story goes, Paul and his wife Linda were watching sweet little lambs romping around a field on their beautiful Scottish farm… while they were enjoying lovely leg of lamb. And that put an end to the eating of the meat. He’s been a vegetarian since the mid ’70’s. He and his daughters started “Meat Free Mondays” in 2009.

• Madonna

  Madonna follows a strict “macrobiotic diet” which prohibits wheat, eggs, meat and dairy. And that’s why she looks as svelte as she does with that flawless complexion of hers.
