The entire Andrew Tate pizza scandal first began this week on Twitter during an online dustball between him and climate activist Greta Thunberg over gas emissions. Tate tweeted at Thunberg about all the gas-powered cars he owns – 33 to be exact – before Thunberg decided to fire off a message of his own, which has since been liked and retweeted over 4 million times. “Yes, please enlighten me” Thunberg said. “Email me at smalld**[email protected]” In response, Tate posted a video on his Twitter page calling out Thunberg and showing the aforementioned pizza boxes. After the inaccurate reports surfaced about the pizza that led to Tate’s arrest, Thunberg decided to ship it another tweetconcludes: “This is what happens when you don’t recycle your pizza boxes.”
After the news of Tate’s arrest and pizza connection theory broke, it didn’t take social media users long to make their comparisons to AJ Soprano (Robert Iler) — people sarcastically saying things like “brilliant minds.” and “life imitates art” declared .” Twitter users @nahiyansays said, “There’s no way Andrew Tate did an AJ Soprano.” user @DrPizzaStone wrote: “It’s so cool that Andrew Tate was arrested the same way AJ Soprano was when he broke into his school. Brilliant thoughts.”
Previously, the scene in which AJ Soprano trashed his school with his friends after work was probably best remembered for featuring a young, well-known Stefani Germanotta – aka Lady Gaga – as an extra. Thanks to current events, the scene will likely get a chuckle when you watch it again for a variety of reasons, even if the pizza box didn’t actually bring Tate down.
