There's something distinctly American about the way in which celebrities and fast-food companies court each other. Consider how "Rick and Morty" superfans helped propel the relaunch of Szechuan Sauce or the revolving door of actors who have portrayed KFC's Colonel Sanders, recently culminating in Mario Lopez starring as the bespectacled fried chicken mogul in Lifetime's "Recipe for Seduction."
Celebrities are also woven through the story of the highly-anticipated return of Taco Bell's Mexican Pizza. It was, after all, singer Doja Cat who was the first to publicly share the news. While on stage at Coachella, she stopped her set to exclaim to the crowd, "I brought back the Mexican Pizza, by the way!" Days later, Taco Bell HQ issued a full press release to confirm that the cult-favorite would be available May 19 at locations across the country.
