It's eaten in the stars
Famous people reveal the foodies in them
Contrary to the notion that showbiz stars live on salad and fresh air, many now dabble in food-related collaborations.
US actress Lindsay Lohan, 30, is the latest one to get cooking.
She will take culinary lessons on English celebrity TV chef Jamie Oliver's show, Jamie and Jimmy's Friday Night Feast, which he hosts with his farmer friend Jimmy Doherty.
Lohan posted on Instagram a photo from the forthcoming episode of the show, looking suitably domestic in a collared dress while Oliver, 41, cooked.
US actress Jessica Biel opened a kid-friendly organic restaurant, Au Fudge, in Los Angeles in March.
The 34-year-old, who has a 17-month-old son with her husband, US singer-actor Justin Timberlake, also offers kids' entertainment at Au Fudge, like arts and crafts and video games.
She told the Los Angeles Times: "You can call me snooty. You can call me elitist. Whatever you want.
"We are providing a space where you can eat and be comfortable and confident that your children are not being pumped full of hormones and chemicals."
