Paul McCartney bans meat, Facebook on sets

Legendary Beatles star Paul McCartney has forbidden his production team from having meat, scrolling through social networking sites and consumption of non-prescription drugs throughout the shoot of a new video.

The 71-year-old, who has been a lifelong supporter of animal rights, is shooting for his new track "Queenie eye" at Abbey Road Studios here, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"It was meant as a joke but, still, you would be out on your ear if you ignored the memo. Anyone found on Twitter, Facebook or nibbling a ham sandwich would be rejected immediately," a source told The Sun newspaper.

"Drug consumption might be harder to prove, but still," the source added.

Actors Johnny Depp and Sean Penn will also make a cameo appearance in the video.
