How Your Favorite Celebs Are Spending Thanksgiving!

How Your Favorite Celebs Are Spending Thanksgiving!, It’s Thanksgiving eve, and many of us are gathering with our families, friends and loved ones to prepare for our seasonal feast! But T-day is so much more than just food — it’s also about giving thanks, giving back and looking forward. We tracked some of your favorite celebs to find out about their plans, traditions and recipes … 

Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga will be spending Turkey Day with her family, and lord knows she needs the rest! But one thing is for sure: her Thanksgiving dinner will inevitably be interrupted by the ringing phone. That’s because her parents refuse to change their home number!

.

During an interview with “Good Morning America” on Tuesday, she said, “[The fans are] never gone. They’re always there. Because even if they’re not outside the house, my father refuses to change our home phone number. So the phone is just ringing all day long and it’s fans. And whenever I’m home he always gives me the phone.”

.

“He goes, ‘Hold on, it’s Alicia from Tennessee’,” she continued. “And then he hands me the phone and I’m like, ‘Hi Alicia.’ And they go, ‘Oh my god, it’s really you!’ It’s really sweet.”

.

We think she may have just asked for the phone to be ringing that much more this year…but she loves her little monsters. So paws up to her!

Khloe Kardashian

Khloe Kardashian and L.A. Lakers hubby Lamar Odom spent some of their holiday with U.S. troops at Camp Pendleton in California.

.

“Getting ready to head to Camp Pendleton,” she tweeted. “We are so honored to be invited to have Thanksgiving with our Troops!”

.

Afterwards, she tweeted, “Just finished up meeting a ton of amazing troops! Thank you for all of the sacrifices are make for us and our country! God bless!”

.

Sweet. The support of the troops lately from celebs has been heartwarming, no?

.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry’s 122nd tour date (and final date) on her “California Dreams” tour is on Wednesday night (actually a FREE show she’s doing for the fans!), and the singer says she’s probably going to break down … but added that she feels thankful. (And no doubt she’ll be exhausted on Thanksgiving Day.)

.

“Tonight & tomorrow I’m giving THANKS. Also I’m gonna try & keep it together but don’t judge me if I cry like a baby on stage,” she tweeted.

.

Emma Stone

While many of us have our eye on the turkey and mashed potatoes, Emma Stone has her eye on the dessert table. And this year, she says she’s doin’ the homemade thang.

.

“I’m going to learn to make a pumpkin pie, maybe,” says the upcoming star of “The Amazing Spider-Man.” But will she go for real stuff or the canned filling? “Probably canned,” she admits.

.

Don’t judge! A girl’s got to start somewhere. And Brit boyfriend Andrew Garfield probably won’t know the difference. Do they even eat pumpkin pie in the UK?

.

Lea Michele

Lea Michele — who is vegetarian — is sticking to the sides.

.

“My aunt makes the best antipasti, and it’s like, all vegetables,” she says. “It’s like the only thing on Thanksgiving that I can actually eat, because I’m a vegetarian. So I just do that with a huge hunk of Italian bread. Those leftovers will last me like, two months.”

.

Ellen DeGeneres

Ellen is another celeb who will spend part of her holiday giving back to the community. Turkeys included.

.

Because instead of handing out turkeys, she saves them. She’s endorsed Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey Project, hoping people will join her in eating a different Thanksgiving meal. Tofurkey, anyone?

.

Lil’ Wayne

Someone who isn’t trying to save the turkeys, but just trying to give them to the needy is good guy Lil’ Wayne, who returned to his hometown of New Orleans on Nov. 18 to give away turkeys during Cash Money’s annual turkey giveaway.

.

Pete Wentz

Pete Wentz says he’s thankful for who’s around the table … as well as what’s on it!

.

“I’m thankful that anybody lets me live the life that I have,” he said, “and I’m thankful for, you know, my family, and what’s that stuff, the cranberry stuff that you have for Thanksgiving? I like that stuff too.”

.

Well said!

.

George Clooney & Stacy Keibler

George Clooney and girlfriend Stacy Keibler are escaping the often hectic U.S. holiday and heading to the beaches of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where they’ll be hanging out with friends and family.

.

George and his new-ish lady are becoming regulars in the popular Mexican getaway — they vacationed there last month for her 32nd birthday. Not a bad way to spend Thanksgiving, eh?

.

Heidi Klum

Everyone’s got a special technique when it comes to cooking and serving the traditional Thanksgiving turkey, but supermodel Heidi Klum says her way is the only way.

.

“It’s all in basting,” she insists. “You have to really care for that bird.”

.

Got that?

.

Avril Lavigne

Singer Avril Lavigne will be performing in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City on Thursday, and she’s definitely psyched.

.

“I’m pretty excited,” she says. “I’m going to be performing on a float in the parade. I’ve never really done anything like that before. But I have my winter coat and it’s going to be good fun.”

.

Also joining Lavigne are Mary J. Blige, Cobra Starship, Cee Lo Green, Scotty McCreery, Ingrid Michaelson; the cast and Muppets of Sesame Street, Daniel Radcliffe and the cast of Broadway’s How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Miss America 2011 Teresa Scanlan and the cast of Broadway’s Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.

.

Olivia Wilde

Actress Olivia Wilde is preparing her stomach — and her brain — for the big day!

.

“Thanksgiving is a big deal in my family,” she says. “It involves about 16 hours of cooking, eating, drinking, hiking and charades. Deadly charades.”Olivia, can we get an invite? Yours sounds delicious, warm and fun!

.

And dear friends, that’s what we hope for your Thanksgiving … that it is happy, safe, warm, full of good food, family and fun. Happy Thanksgiving!
