No, that wasn't a SAG-card-carrying pizza delivery man Sunday night at the Oscars. When Ellen DeGeneres [2] called in her pizza order midshow, it was a real pizza guy, not an actor, who answered. Edgar of Big Mama's & Papa's Pizzeria delivered the hot cheese and veggie (sans cheese) pies on live TV, apparently arriving in an official Oscars SUV. On Monday, Edgar, who owns his pizza place with his brother, revealed that he thought he was delivering pizza to Oscars writers. Next thing he knew, he was on stage. Watch him relive the moment now — including when he delivered pizza to his favorite star. And don't forget, Ellen collected about $600 — and Lupita's lip balm [3] — in Pharrell Williams's hat for the A-list pizza party [4]. She made sure Edgar got it!
