Rapper Awed could not believe what Gazza was telling him


The Naples native can’t hide his disgust

The sweet topping is a favourite in the UK but Italians regard it as taboo.

Yet the ex-England footie star confessed: “My favourite is ham and pineapple pizza.

“It’s delicious. You can’t beat it. It’s the best.’’

The other 15 campers — on the Honduran islands of Cayo Cochinos where Gazza has become a hit — winced.



The sweet topping is a favourite in the UK but Italians regard it as taboo.

Rapper Awed, from Naples where pizza was invented, asked: “You do what? Mamma mia, that’s disgusting. Pizza is a savoury dish, you put savoury toppings on it not a sweet topping. Yuk.”

But Gascoigne, 53, insisted: “No, no, you’re wrong. It’s delicious.’’

Gazza, who was with Lazio in the 1990s but whose Italian is poor, is through to the second week of the two-month show.
