Ringo Starr Reveals He's Never Eaten Pizza or Curry Due to Allergies

The Beatles drummer shared the surprising confession during a Kimmel Live! appearance while promoting his new country album, 'Look Up.'

  • Ringo Starr, 84, revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that he has never eaten pizza or curry, citing allergies to several ingredients that make him ill immediately.
  • Despite never having tried pizza, Starr starred in a 1995 Pizza Hut commercial promoting their stuffed crust pizza, though he did not eat the food on camera.
  • Starr's dietary restrictions are consistent with his long-standing vegetarian lifestyle and allergies to common ingredients like onions and garlic.
  • The musician appeared on the show to promote his new country album, 'Look Up,' which debuted in January and features collaborations with artists like Alison Krauss and Jack White.
  • Starr's recent Nashville concert, benefiting the American Red Cross and wildfire relief efforts, will be released as a Paramount+ special this spring.
