A weir-dough revelation.
Ringo Starr says he’s by no means had one of the vital in style meals on this planet — a delicacies he as soon as even promoted.
The 84-year-old Beatles drummer shared his stunning confession throughout his Tuesday look on “Jimmy Kimmel Dwell!“
Kimmel, 57, requested Starr to clear up some rumors about him that exist out within the ether — the primary of which is that the rock star has by no means eaten pizza.
“I’ve never had a pizza,” Starr confirmed to shocked silence. “Never had a pizza.”
“You hear all those people in the back going, ‘What?’” he added, prompting laughter from the viewers.
Nevertheless it was one other meals confession that left them much more shocked.
“Or a curry,” Starr mentioned as folks gasped, “Nooooo!”
“I’m allergic to several items,” defined the drummer, who has shared earlier than that he’s a vegetarian. “With pizza, you don’t know what you’re putting in it half the time, or the curry. So I’m pretty strict with myself ’cause it makes me ill immediately.”
A gobsmacked Kimmel responded, “I used to think you had the greatest life, and now I realize mine is better.”
“Yours is better because you’ve had a pizza,” Starr conceded.
Curiously, the Beatles star has beforehand been a pizza spokesperson.
In 1995, Ringo appeared in a Pizza Hut industrial to advertise the hut’s just-rolled-out menu addition, cheese-stuffed crust, per Billboard.
Standing in a subject subsequent to a cow, Starr began the spot saying, “I’d do it in a second,” seemingly hinting at a Beatles reunion.
“The fans will dig it. They’ve waited long enough. I’ve just got to get the other lads to agree,” he continued.
The promo then pulled a bait-and-switch.
“I’ll say, ‘Lads! The time has come! To eat our pizza crust first,’” Starr added from behind a drum set as he pulled out a slice of pie from a Pizza Hut field.
Doubling down on the comedy, the “lads” who subsequently joined him for a chunk should not Paul McCartney and George Harrison, however relatively the members of one other ’60s mop-topped boy band, the Monkees.
“Wrong lads,” Starr quipped because the Monkees’ self-titled track performed.
Although the opposite singers all take a chunk of a pizza, Ringo doesn’t.
Starr beforehand spoke about his dietary habits in a 2022 Rolling Stone interview.
“I am a vegetarian, I have broccoli with everything and blueberries every morning,” he mentioned on the time. “I just do stuff that I feel is good for me.”
