Macaulay Culkin has very cheesy new gig

Macaulay Culkin is in a band – a band that only sings about pizza.

Yes, the former “Home Alone” star is in a parody cover band of The Velvet Underground, aptly called The Pizza Underground.

Hits include “Cheese Days,” “All the Pizza Parties,” “I’m Beginning to Eat the Slice,” “Waiting for the Delivery Man and Pizza Day.”

“Papa John says, when answering the phone, which toppings should I say you want, we deliver now,” one singer belts out in the song “Papa John Says.” “Papa John says, Papa John says that he’d like to know why you’re giving half your pie to toppings you hate now.”

According to the band’s website, the album was recorded at Culkin’s home on November 11, and the former child star sings vocals and plays percussion and a kazoo.

The band formed in February 2012, well before The Velvet Underground frontman Lou Reed died in October of this year.

It seems things are on the up for Culkin after years of alleged drug abuse.

Recently it was reported that he may finally have reason to smile after being spotted on a romantic date in Paris with new flame, Jordan Lane Price.

If you want to have a listen, you can hear some of the tracks here. But a warning, they might be a bit cheesy.
