Red carpet season 2014 – Celebs and their favourite Nom Noms
Two weeks into 2014 and it’s that time of the year- the sparkly Hollywood Red carpet moments have arrived; kicked off with the Golden Globes on the 12th. Exciting news about this year’s event was that tons of British actors (Idria Elba for The long walk to freedom, Chiwetol Ejiofor for 12 years a slave, Emma Thompsonfor Saving Mr. Banks toKate Winslet for Labor day), films and TV shows (BBC’s Luther to ITV’s Downton Abbey) were nominated and had us proud! Celebs not only enjoyed their champagnes but also some delish-looking foods (such as grilled aubergene with sundried tomatoes and pine-nut hummus, spice-crusted braised beef rib and a mango dessert on sponge cake with creme anglaise) (source: mirror.co.uk, cbsnew.com). Celebs enjoy these exquisite foods but they actually share their love for food with us! On that note, celebrating the glory of the event, tastyfind this week would like to have a little peek into some celeb’s favourite dishes. Give us a vote of ‘Nom Nom’ or ‘Ew, not nom!’
Celebs and their love for burgers, pizzas, and fries
Kate Winslet and Gwyneth Paltrow: Pizza
First up is a beautiful Kate, who was also a nominee this year! Kate’s name is bound to be found in award nominations nowadays. We gushed over her beautiful body when she transformed herself from rather round duckling into a stunning swan! She eats mostly greens according to most sources and that’s because she knows when to treat herself. This beautiful and talented Kate loves to indulge herself in pizza every once in a while. We just ponder over what pizza toppings are her favourite. That’s not been revealed yet…but our guess is quattro formaggi or peperonchini. Another pretty face, who loves pizza, is Gwyneth Paltrow. She apparently loves margherita pizza. There is nothing like really well-done margherita with quality tomato sauce, basil leaves, and good oozing mozzarella!

Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz: Mac and cheese, Burgers and fries
These two, who are like girls next door who also like eating like girls next door (and we love them!) Reportedly Drew Barrymore loves Mac and Cheese. Pregnant Drew Barrymore reportedly grew an appetite into Chinese takeaways, pan-fried noodles, specifically. It’s not unusual to find pregnant women craving for Chinese food (such as Halle Barry and Ellen Pompero from Grey’s Anatomy). Cameron Diaz adores her French fries and burgers! Diaz famously said she couldn’t have fries put in front of her otherwise she won’t be able to stop eating! She also said she wouldn’t waste leftovers from takeaway and loves to eat Yesterday’s takeaway on the following day. But Diaz also has another face as a restaurateur. She apparently co-owns an Asian restaurant in Miami called Bamboo and always eats green chicken curry when she pops into the restaurant.
Jennifer Lawrence and her potatoes
Not only young, beautiful and so talented, we love her attitude about food! She actually loves eating! This young rising beauty (well-risen and in a spotlight for stardom for sure) apparently orders egg benedict without looking at the menu in restaurants. And J Law apparently adores her potatoes in any form (fried, backed, mashed potatoes! You’re welcome to England, Jen!) Her no non-sense attitude of “Well, I eat” represents young generation’s crisp attitude! We like!

Scarlett Johansson, Miranda Kerr: Chicken
Pretty Scarlett is reported to have an obsession for buffalo chicken wings! Yum! And Orlando Bloom’s ex, supermodel, Miranda Kerr also famously picked fried chicken as her favourite snack (whereas their son’s favourite is not Marmite but Vegemite! Yay, here here, the good old favourite (ew…).
Sweet tooth stars
German-speaking beauty, Gravity star, Sandra Bullock loves chocolate and Vienna pastry on her deserving day while young diva in music scene, Rihanna loves chocolate-flavoured ice cream. Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch loves his cake while shooting for the drama and his guilty pleasure is an ice cream in front of the TV set watching X-factor. Who would’ve thought!
Not-so- keen- on- food celebs
For some, life is food. Food is life. But every now and then we come across with some people who are genuinely not so into food. Blue Jasmin’s director, Woody Allen, who was also awarded for his life time film works, famously once said “I don’t eat enjoyable foods. I eat for my health.” His works we love, but food habit, not so much…As the winning actress Cate Blanchett also struggles to show interest when it comes to food.
Cate Blanchett: White rice and muesli
Aussie film queen, Cate Blanchett, apparently is not so obsessed with eating. According to the interview done by Oprah, Cate struggled to find an answer when asked what she would like to eat for her last supper and eventually said “White rice”. Also reportedly her favourite thing is muesli. Muesli…muesli…Ok, muesli is delicious, oaty flavor mixed with chewy natural sweet dried fruits with cold milk cuts it. Muesli cuts for breakfast and perhaps some lazy night dinner but yeah….I might not be inviting her for my dinner party…
Meat, meat, and more meat
Matthew McCounaughey and his burgers
His absolute favourite has been burgers (since he was 4 years old!) when he gives himself some treat from taking a break from strict workout regimen.
Matt Damon: Meat, potatoes, pizza and lobster
Lobster might be something a little far-fetched but he also absolutely loves pizza and potatoes as much as his greens! And here is a little trivia: his three children have absolute craze over broccoli!
Idris Elba: Kebabs and breakfast with steak
Here, here to Idria Elba for his nominations! Luther and Walk to freedom Star, Idris Elba apparently misses his social scene in the UK, Kebab, and a pub with sticky floors while he’s in LA (Yep, he is one of us, our bloke!). And his favourite meal is breakfast with steak and eggs. Nom nom!
Charlize Theron: BBQ
Another beauty who loves meat is Ms. Theron. She happens to love pizza and cheese too. We can’t picture such foods in such a stunning body of Charlize, right? But she swears she loves red meat especially South African BBQ, braai, with sausages, lamb chops and potatoes!

Sushi and stars
Hangover star, Bradley Cooper, is a big fan of sushi apparently. No wonder he has a lean fresh physique! Briton such as Keira Knightley and Victoria Beckham love those raw fish dishes too.
Hot, Hot and Mexican
Johnny Depp is so down to earth when it comes to food. He loves Mexican food and in general he enjoys his pork, KFC, and sticky toffee pudding. He likes to adventure into something spicy and new while enjoying something sweet and classy. It’s like an embodiment of his personality, right? He also has a face as French winemaker and restaurateur.
Jennifer Aniston and Amy Adams have something in common; love for Mexican food such as chips and guacamole, quesadillas, enchiladas, a big tostada salada and nachos. All-American pretty girl Jen keeps it real and admits that she loves Mexican so much that Mexican would be her ideal last supper!
Vegetarian green celebs
Many celebs are into vegetarian such as Leonardo DiCaprio (keen environmentalist that loves pasta), Natalie Portman (chocolate lover and Vegan), Joaquin Phoenix (loves Tofu), Kristen Bell (chocolate and cheese), James Cameron, Russell Brand to name a few.
So here they are, celebs and their favourite nom nom. We look at celebs and we think “Probably those stars live on grass roots and fruit juice and handful of nuts. But the truth is they know when to indulge themselves. Though celebs go through workout and strict diet regimen, they also treat themselves and do everything in moderation. And they swear that’s the key to the success of having their gorgeous bodies! Maybe us getting into a size smaller is not so unattainable?
Who’s your favourite celebrity with a gorgeous body? Let us know!
