Colton Haynes Reveals 'Teen Wolf' Diet

29 June 2013 12:20 PM, PDT

Colton Haynes spends a lot of time shirtless on his show Teen Wolf, which means the actor makes sure his body is in tip-top shape before he begins shooting a half naked scene. Haynes big secret isn't steamed veggies or lean meats. Instead, the actor says candy is what helps him look buff on Teen Wolf

"The trick is after a work out you're supposed to have gummy bears or some candy to get your veins to stick out," Haynes said. "Of course it's all about protein too but right before you're filming a shirtless scene you have a little bit of sugar to pop the veins." 

Of his favorite sweets, Haynes says, "I love every type of candy. I love Skittles and Reeses. I love it all."

Alicia Silverstone wants moms to start sharing their breast milk. The actress is starting her own co-op for vegan moms. Silverstone was inspired when she came across a woman who wasn't able to produce enough milk for her son. 

"Because we are a community of beautiful souls who recognize the importance of food as health, I say we help support those mamas and babies who need a hand during one of the most important times in their lives," Silverstone wrote on her website, The Kind Life. "It's why I'm starting the Kind Mama Milk Share, a way for moms to connect with other moms in their area. If you have milk to share--post it! If you are in need of milk--post it! Think of all the babies we can help raise together!

27 June 2013 12:49 PM, PDT

Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are PETA's Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrities. The engaged couple are both avid animal-lovers who have adopted meat-free diets. 

"I had a hard time disassociating the animals I cuddled with -- dogs and cats for example -- from the animals on my plate, and I never really cared for the taste of meat," Bell said. "I always loved my Brussels sprouts!" 

Shepard said adopting a vegetarian diet has benefited his life in more than one way. 

"I have fewer body aches. My skin looks better. I'm never starving, and I never need to ride the couch feeling completely full and disgusting," he said. 

Do you think Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard deserve the PETA title of Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrities?
