Sebuah sumber dari jaringan restoran mengatakan kepada MailOnline: "Ya, kami [mengirim pizza]. Kami menyiapkan beberapa pegawai untuk melayani acara Oscar.
"Lima kotak pizza Big Papas berisi 60 irisan. Tapi kali ini ukurannya lebih besar, sesuai kebutuhan acara ini."

A PIZZA delivery guy brought a huge order to the Dolby Theatre on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood on Sunday only to be roped into appearing onstage at the Oscars.
Edgar, pictured below at work at Big Mama´s & Papa´s Pizzeria in Hollywood, was fulfilling an order for five of the chain´s specialty Big Papa´s and a selection of smaller pies.
After the slices were consumed, host Ellen DeGeneres collected hundreds of dollars from Brad Pitt and Harvey Weinstein to tip the man, but he never saw that cash, according to TMZ.
´It´s pretty clear he had no idea Ellen passed Pharrell´s hat around and scored around $300,´ wrote the site.
The pizza parlor did end up getting a lot of free publicity however, as advertising on the show costs at least $1.8m, according to Variety. The publicity coup is thought to be worth about $10million to the pizza chain.
Ellen had roped him into joining her onstage - where he helped hand out pieces among a room full of multimillionaires, with recipients including Brad, Jennifer Lawrence, Jared Leto, Julia Roberts, Kerry Washington and Meryl Streep.
As Ellen persuaded the stars to dig in, the bemused delivery guy doled out the squares behind her.
The sheepish delivery man followed Ellen around the front seats of the auditorium and the host later passed around a Pharrell Williams-like big hat to gather tips for the pizza delivery from the stars.
A source from the chain told MailOnline: ´Yes, we did [deliver the pizza]. We had a couple of guys during the Oscars.
´It was five Big Papas at 60 square slices each. But they got a bunch more, those were just the big ones.´
But he said the delivery guy had no warning he would be making a cameo in front of millions of TV viewers.
´No idea,´ he said, although he wasn´t phased by the request.
´Big Mama´s & Papa´s pizza!!! I order from them all the time! That´s my delivery guy!,´ tweeted Jason with the handle @garmonbozia shortly after seeing the familiar face.
Others took to Facebook to find out who the delivery man was.

The feeding frenzy started when host Ellen appeared onstage and surprisingly said, ´Guess what? Pizza´s here.´
A pizza deliveryman with a red cap and red apron then appeared onstage holding several boxes of stacked pizzas.
´I lied. We weren´t going backstage,´ Ellen told the laid-back pizza guy.
Ellen told the celebrity-studded audience that she had a vegetable pizza with tomato sauce, a cheese pizza and other different kinds.
´I´ve never done this before, you help,´ Ellen asked the delivery guy who proceeded to offer slices to the stars.
When Ellen asked who wanted a slice several famous hands immediately shot up.
Chiwetel Ejiofor of 12 Years A Slave fame asked and received a whole box of pizza that he shared.
Oscar winner Julia asked for cheese and reached for a slice along with Meryl who munched away despite wearing a white dress.
