Papa Johns Goes Viral in UK After 'Love Island' Star Chloe Burrows Puts Christmas Dinner on a Pizza
Papa Johns went viral in the UK after popular "Love Island" star Chloe Burrows partnered with the pizza chain to put a new spin on the classic Christmas dinner.
Chloe posed the crucial query to fans: "Does Christmas Dinner belong on your pizzas?" In order to capture the public's attention in London's Convent Garden, Chloe wore a custom All The Trimmings Pizza-style outfit to celebrate the launch of Papa Johns' holiday line and its accompanying All The Trimmings Pizza, a limited-edition dish topped with pulled turkey, sage sprouts and onions, and crumbled potato tots all set on a delectable gravy base.
Chloe's hyper-realistic, handcrafted costume was designed to evoke the toppings on Papa Johns' limited-edition pizza. The pizza base was covered with layers of 3D Brussels sprouts, turkey, potato tots, and cranberry drizzle. On her head, she wore a hat of gravy mayo and pigs in blankets that transformed the whole outfit into the ultimate theatrical spectacle.
“It was such a fun day out, getting to meet fellow Papa Johns fans and speak to them about whether or not Christmas Dinner belongs on your pizzas!!" Chloe said in a statement. "It’s such a unique idea, one you wouldn’t think of traditionally, but it’s bangin’. The majority of fans thought so too — while some were apprehensive to begin with, in the end, the All The Trimmings Pizza received a big thumbs up!”
Pigs in Blankets, Ben & Jerry's Minter Wonderland Ice Cream, Raspberry and White Chocolate Chouxnuts, and the traditional Milk Chocolate Chunk Cookies are among the festive sides and sweets that will be served with the iconic pizza.
Unfortunately, because this limited-edition pizza is only available in the UK, American Papa Johns fans will not be able to enjoy it.
Papa Johns and the Las Vegas Raiders
Meanwhile, on this side of the pond, the pizza chain has a new major investor in Las Vegas Raiders star Maxx Crosby.
NBC3 in Las Vegas reported that the defensive end, and longtime fan of the pizza chain, became a marketing partner and equity owner of BLD Ventures' Papa Johns Las Vegas late last month. BLD Ventures is one of the pizza chain's biggest franchisees.
“Vegas has supported me since I got here,” Crosby said in a statement. “I love Papa Johns and teaming up with them is my way of showing love back to the city that’s embraced me as one of its own.”
