    George Clooney Pizza Box Brings Hot, Cheesy Thrills

    George Clooney was in a Berlin restaurant last month, where he had a lively time with pals before picking up the tab for a nearby table of strangers. Now the tequila maker’s likeness has appeared on a pizza box in the town of Haslach, Germany (which is, admittedly, about 400 miles away). Coincidence? Photo retouching? Um, probably. But we love to think not.

    When Jezebel noted the hotter-than-usual pizza-chef illustration in a Facebook post, it drew comments from folks who had actually noticed it years before. “Are you kidding me?!!! I bought this same pizza box from a place in Val d'Isere, France (a skiing village) a couple of years ago and posted a photo to FB immediately. Thought it was the funniest thing ever,” wrote someone with the screen name NotFromRoundHere.

"He does have a place in Italy," one commenter noted. "‘…this checks out."
