Silverstone Spurns Sustenance


Crusading for the rights of the moral and healthy, vegan Alicia Silverstone has famously shunned meat, meat-products, milk and vegetables she considers to be intelligent. Today she took her convictions one step further when she announced she was giving up food itself.

The star of Excess Baggage went on to explain she would live purely on sunlight, "Like the pretty flowers do." Rumours that she has been seen trying to take root in her garden remain unfounded.
