LOS ANGELES (AP) â€" The pizza delivery man who fed stars at the Oscars received a best tip award for a supporting player: $1,000 in cash handed over by ceremony host Ellen DeGeneres.
That included money collected from A-list celebrities who chowed down on the pies during the ceremony Sunday and from DeGeneres herself.
Edgar Martirosyan received the tip during a visit Monday to "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."
DeGeneres said she passed Pharrell Williams oversized hat at the Oscars and collected about $600, then contributed more.
The Big Mamas & Papas delivery guy said he had already gotten a reward: serving Julia Roberts, whom he called the woman of his dreams.
DeGeneres received her own Oscars spiff. Her talk shows producer, Telepictures Productions, says Mondays episode was the highest-rated in the series 11-year history.
