Sir Paul McCartney's first cookbook, The Meat Free Monday Cookbook, went on sale Monday and aims to encourage people to eat less meat!

Proceeds from the book are all going toward his family's campaign, Meat Free Monday, which dares people to eat meat-free meals at least one day a week.

Paul believes that by going vegetarian for just one day a week, people can “make a huge difference for the better and set a new pattern for the future of this beautiful planet that we all inhabit”.

On top of curbing pollution, improving health and promoting the ethical treatment of animals, the former Beatle suggests in the book's foreword that avoiding meat one day a week will also save consumers money, explaining:

"In difficult economic times, people discovered that have at least one meat-free day in their week helped their family budget.”

The cookbook consists of McCartney family vegetarian recipes, plus contributions from famous friends like model Twiggy and Horrible Bosses actor Kevin Spacey.

They're the greatest pop/rock band in music history, yet somehow there haven't been a whole lot of films about The Beatles. No, Across the Universe does not count.

But that's about to change as Michael Winterbottom takes the helm of The Longest Cocktail Party. The film, which is based on the Richard DiLello book, showcases the most crucial moments in the band's career between 1967 and 1970.

Michael is also set to produce it with Andrew Eaton. But the whole project was given birth by the original producer and Oasis front-man Liam Gallagher. It was his idea to turn the book into a movie, and it is also his idea to cast Johnny Depp as Derek Taylor, the band's publicist.

Unfortunately, Andrew is feeling some creative differences there. He's not sure Johnny would be the best fit for the role, saying:

Why not follow up your lovely wedding with a tour announcement?!

So fab! Looks like just because Paul McCartney settled down doesn't mean he's settling down!
