If you love all kinds of sports, eating colossal amounts of pizza and money, then there's a role going that's just for you.

In a job that sounds as crazy as being a professional cuddler, take a look at what Pizza Hut is offering students willing to travel around the country.

For only working seven months, you'll be paid $50,000 (€45,000) to go to as many NCAA championships as possible. It includes 90 games which span from basketball to hockey to volleyball and basically everything in between.

And can going to basketball matches while getting paid a ball load of money actually be counted as 'work'? Nope, it sounds like a dream to us…

Unfortunately, you have to be a resident of the US for the job, but how amazingly-wonderful does it all sound?!

If you want to investigate more, the application is open on the Pizza Hut website now.

Ever been so worse for wear that even ordering a takeaway feels like effort?

Well, at long last the heroes at Domino’s have found a solution.

The pizza giant has launched a new facility which allows customers to order food through Facebook simply by messaging the word “PIZZA” to a contact called “Dom”.

“Dom” – who is in fact an artificially intelligent chatbot – enables Facebook users to satisfy their cravings near instantaneously by automatically ordering a user’s favourite pizza upon receiving the word “PIZZA” or – if you’re really suffering – its emoji equivalent.

To get set up, all you need to do is open an “Easy Order” account with Dominos and link it to your Facebook profile.

Then, open your messages, find “Dom” and let him take care of the rest.

Sundays just got a whole lot better.

Celebrities are cool and everything, but celebs that send you pizza are even cooler.

Yep, that's what Justin Timberlake did this week to celebrate the debut of his Netflix special, Justin Timberlake and the Tennessee Kids.

To mark the occasion, JT sent out pizza to his fans who tweeted throwbacks of his #JY2020Tour. Here's some of the best reactions:

Sound, Justin!

OK, so we're all about pizza here in Shemazing! HQ, and even though it's not the most nutritious thing for us, we love it (and will eat it) anyway.

Well, apparently we've been eating and holding pizza wrong all these years and we're only finding out the right way now. 

If you want to eat it correctly, it's not by holding it by the crust. Nope, it's much more sophisticated than that.

In the traditional sense, you fold it into a 'wallet'.

Food writer Daniel Young told the Manchester Evening News: "The mistake everyone makes is holding the pizza by the crust. That's not to say you should grab it by the cheese-strings, but if you try to lift Neapolitan (Margherita) pizza by the crust the topping will slide off and you'll be left with a soggy-looking piece of dough."

Em, no Daniel. We eat pizza like that every day. No sloppy dough in sight!

He then continues: "You fold it into a wallet. Because Neapolitan pizza was eaten on the street, folded twice upon itself like a wallet."

This way is meant to hold all the cheesy goodness inside but we're not convinced. After a few bites will it not spill out anyway? AND there's zero pictures of 'wallet' pizza (well, there's a few) on the Internet, so we think that explains it all.

Guess we're going to have to order pizza tonight to work this thing out…

You know that delighted feeling you get when you order a takeaway only to learn on arrival that you’ve been given extra food?

Well, imagine how you’d feel if your delivery came with $5,000 in cash.

After ordering chicken wings from Domino’s in San Jose, a Californian woman discovered that she had accidentally been given a container full of cash instead of her food.

But while most of us would take the 5k and head straight for the shops, honest Selena Avalos contacted the branch from which her food had been sent and alerted those working there of their mistake.

According to The Sun, the popular pizza chain rewarded the Spacetel Wireless manager’s honesty by offering her free pizza for a year.

And just for being a good person, Selena’s boss gave her a paid week off work.

It's no secret that around SHEmazing! Towers we're massive, big, HUGE fans of all things pizza.

Which is why we like to consume it in its many guises as often as possible. 

We also like when science backs-up our dietary preferences with gems such as "pizza makes you more productive," – a research finding we frankly couldn't agree more with. 

But while pizza gives us many things in life, sadly it rarely offers us the likes of free trips to Italy (but then neither does, say, celery – and pizza is definitely a lot more fun).

That could ALL change tomorrow, however.

Yes – upon spotting snaps of Dublin hottie Holly Carpenter sprawled on a couch tucking into a cheesy and pepperoni delight (a woman after our own hearts, evidently) – a spot of investigation unearthed a competition we will most certainly be part-taking in. 

In short, Dr. Oetker is holding a rather delicious Great Italian Lock-In.

In a statement, Dr. Oetker says that it wants you to: "Lock the door and unlock the fresh pizzeria taste at home by popping a Dr. Oetker Ristorante pizza in the oven, 12 minutes later, say 'Bellissimo' and share a photo of you enjoying your Ristorante on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram using #GreatItalianLockIn and you could be jetting off to Italy!" 

In a statement, we say: "HURRAH for pizza!"

We scoured the small print and furthermore discovered that entries will be open all next week via #GreatItalianLockIn hashtag – meaning if you're not in a particularly pizza place tomorrow (what's wrong with you?) you can submit your entry at your leisure. 

 

More info is available from the Dr. Oetker Facebook page and website.

Let's be real, we all love pizza.

When we eat it, it motivates us to go to the gym, but did you know it's also a great motivator for work?

In Dan Ariely's new book Payoff: The Hidden Logic That Shapes Our Motivations, he discovers that pizza can actually increase productivity in employees.

Dan conducts a study involving some factory workers at Intel in Isreal. He split the employees up into three separate groups. He promised one group a voucher for pizza, the next group a cash bonus and the third group a compliment from their superior.

And among the three awards, guess which won? The pizza voucher, of course.

In fact, the workers that were promised the pizza continued to perform better all week. 

Now if that doesn't motivate you, we don't know what will.

You know those times when you're so hungover you just wish that a big cheesy pizza would magically drop onto your kitchen table and you'd be saved?

Yeah, we all have those dreams from time to time but now, it seems that it actually could happen.

Domino's, being a pizza wonder that it is, has tested out a delivery drone in New Zealand – and it turned out quite well.

Called Flirtey, the drone successfully completed one autonomous flight delivery yesterday which means it's now one step closer to being brought into the mainstream. 

It has brilliant packaging techniques that makes sure your pizza stays nice and toasty throughout the the whole delivery process.

It's also driven electrically unmanned and has several built-in safety features, like 'low battery return to safe location' and 'auto-return home' features in case of loss of GPS signal or communication.

"Domino's customers can expect the freshest and fastest pizza delivery service at the same quality they have come to expect from us thanks to Flirtey's industry-leading technology," said Domino's CEO Don Meij.

We're liking the sound of this.

Tesco shoppers were delighted yesterday after a cashier glitch saw them being able to buy a pizza AND a dessert for just £1.

When a customer went to a self-service till, they were able to get away with buying the goods for the small price, and some even claimed to get the deal for 85p.

The supermarket launched a meal deal in the UK for a large Pizza Express pizza and two Gu luxury desserts for £5, only when customers went to purchase the items, they were only charged a fraction of the actual price.

Of course, as word spread, more and more people took advantage of the glitch and shared pictures on social media. One particular snap saw 15 pizzas bought altogether. 

According to the Daily Mirror's journalist Emma Munbodh, the mix-up happened because Tesco's Brand Match guarantee only works when you buy ten items or more in one go.

A Tesco spokesperson said: "We are correcting this error, but will continue to offer the meal deal for £5."

If you love pizza then you are going to be over the pepperoni moon with this latest invention.

A pizza ATM is now a legit device that has just been installed into a university in the US.

All the students will need to do is touch the screen to choose what sauce and toppings they want, then the little machine has an oven built-in so within a few minutes you'll be welcomed with a hot, cheesy pizza. Mmmmm.

I think I speak for everyone when I say this needs to be installed into every college, uni and office in the world.

One of the reasons we love Adele more than we could ever properly articulate is because she seems so down-to-earth.

Cursing with wild abandon, admitting she's heard Jennifer Aniston's 'p*ss come out', and feigning shock at the idea of being part of Tay's squad means we feel we can totally relate to the star.

And then we'll hear a story that reminds us no matter how colourful her language or how star-struck she gets at times, Adele is a multi award-winning pop sensation who can pretty much do whatever she damn well pleases.

And if recent reports currently doing the rounds are to be believed, Adele did exactly that when she requested hotel staff organise a pizza delivery…from 112 kilometres away.

While staying at the Soho Farmhouse country hotel in Oxfordshire, the When We Were Young singer got a craving for a pizza from her local eaterie in Kensington, and hotel staff were apparently more than happy to oblige.

But after a 225-kilometre round-trip, staff discovered that Adele had decided to grab a little shut-eye and was all tucked up and fast asleep by the time her pizza had finally made its way to Oxfordshire.

225 kilometres? How good could it actually be?!

Ever order fast food and sit there waiting for it to arrive thinking it just isn't fast enough?

Well it looks like that feeling could soon be a thing of the past as the world's first 3D pizza printer is on the way and it is set to change everything.

According to Fast Casual, the people who invented NASA's first 3D food printing robot Beehex have developed a pizza printing prototype which can create oven-ready pizzas in any shape imaginable in less than four minutes.

And as if that isn't enough, Beehex is also working on a 3D food printing kiosk which can create and bake one pizza pie ever 60 seconds – that's a lot of pizza.

These pizza gods have left chef Pasquale Cozzolino in charge of sourcing the right base, sauce and cheese for the printer and it seems he's going all out on finding the very best ingredients for the project by importing tomatoes from Mount Vesuvius and mozzarella from Italian cows.

Pasquale – who owns restaurants in New York and Atlanta – also intends to use 80-year-old yeast for the dough – fancy!

Because the pizzas will be ready within minutes and should be available to order by app, this new venture could change how we eat pizza forever.

Oh the possibilities…
