Linda McCartney and Hitler.
Glad to say that neither influenced me, although Hitler had a fine line in veggie burgers. Or was it Linda? I get confused.

It doesn’t matter what sort of pompous girlie snit you want to get into – Angus is right. Your question asks for famous veggies or vegans, and assuming you meant famous vegetarians rather than famous vegetables Angus is right on the money – your definition of the word ‘vegetarian’ is wrong and his is right. This means that the answers to your question are miles off because the vast majority of people nominated in the answers are no more vegetarians than I am, and I eat meat. Eggs are not vegetarian; they are animal. Fauna. Gallus domestica. They contain animal fats and proteins. Easting chicken eggs is the same as eating chicken meat, just like eating caviar is the same as eating sturgeon. The same can be said for milk and the many ‘vegetarian’ products made from it – they are not ‘vegetarian’ at all. Get used to it – if you eat foods of an animal origin you are NOT a vegetarian. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want that to be true.
Incidentally, the imbecilic statement ; “The definition of a Veggie is not someone who only eats things of vegetable origin … ” made me laugh so hard that nearly choked on my chicken and bacon sandwich. The definition of a vegetarian IS a person who limit his diet to foodstuffs of a vegetable origin, you berk. How can a vegetarian eat food of an animal origin? In what Universe does that make sense? Please, tell me which dictionary allows eggs, milk, cheese, yoghurt or honey (cheers, Angus) to be classed as vegetables?
I like Cowboy Bill, he’s a vegan
He tought me that picking the soap up in the shower is nothing to be afraid of.
We are in love.
In the days of Take That i was influnced by Mark Owen, oh the shame and i’m still a vegi now.
moby, alicia silverstone, bryan adams, brandy are vegans.
pam anderson, morrrisey are vegitarians.
adolf hitler. who would want his influence?
Andre 2000 from Outkast. Didn’t he win Sexiest Vegetarian of the year or something like that?
Jodie Marsh..although she’s hardly a celebrity..just a sl*g!!
Wow! looks like the long lists got there first XD
Don’t know if they caugh Weird Al- who is a vegan. And the band Rise Against are vegans too I believe

Hitler was a vegetarian – he influenced many, many millions of people in all sorts of interesting ways, most of which ended up in them being dead. He was surreptitiously fed animal products by his quack Theodor Morell (probably out of spite – unknown to Hitler, he was half-Jewish) but his diet would nowadays be called macribiotic-vegan. Mussolini was also a vegetarian. Quoting Gary Glitter as a poster boy for vegetarianism is probably a bit off message, too.
Vegetarianism is a crock. Eggs, butter, milk, cheese, yoghurt, honey – all of these things are allowable in a “vegetarian diet” but none of them are vegetable in origin. Spare me the pious humbug about confusing vegan with vegetarian, by the way – a vegan doesn’t USE any animal derived products, while a vegetarian doesn’t EAT any. Under that simple definition few of the people on the downloaded list above would qualify.
Linda McCarthy – Paul McCarthy’s wife that passed away. I don’t know that she influenced me, most famous people never influence me.
moby..he,s a vegan..tony blackburn..veggie. no, i have not been influenced by them if i was to become vegetarian i would do it for myself.
Gandhi.
He has insired me to fight without violence.
Andre 3000 from OUTKAST!
Quitoslady’s list is quite exhaustive. The Vegetarian Society claim ‘tub thumpers Chumbawamba’ as well.

Well I’m still a meat lover and in their eyes they wouldn’t like it, but they have said it is wrong to kill animals JUST for fur and in a way that is true.
Alicia Silverstone (altho I think she’s a bit over the top about it!)
Orlando Bloom use to be (go figure that one out)
Chris Martin? I think i read that somewhere
I’m veggie but no veggie celeb has influenced me in my vegetarianism yet!
Alicia Silverstone. And, yes. She’s a babe!
