Who knew one of the world’s oldest culinary delights could stir up such a ruckus? Terry Bradshaw brought the heat with his outrageous opinions on this age-old dish, leading to some serious chaos. 

On an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, the former QB kicked off a pie-tastrophe on this ancient dish. With origins dating back to 9700 BC, pies have been around longer than most of us can fathom, yet Bradshaw was ready to throw shade like a pro.

As the limelight turned to the Australian chef and actor Curtis Stone, who’s gearing up to launch The Pie Room, stuff got saucy. Stone enthusiastically mentioned the savory meat pies of British fame—and Bradshaw—without missing a beat, shot back with a dramatic, “Meat? Ugh.” 

The room froze. Kelly Clarkson (with a net worth of $50M) quickly leaped in, exclaiming, “It’s just pot pie!” Shanola Hampton chimed in, desperately trying to save the moment: “Uncle Terry, it’s just pot pie!” But Bradshaw was having none of it.

Instead, the 76-year-old declared his loyalty to fruit, proudly stating, “I like peaches,” as if he’d just won the Super Bowl of pie preferences. In a crazy twist, Clarkson recounted how even Zendaya found herself on the wrong side of pie history, admitting, “I’m not a pie guy.” Bradshaw’s world was crumbling! “I just feel like people can mess cake up a lot,” Zendaya lamented.

Clarkson rallied her troops, proclaiming, “At the end of the day, a pie is like giving someone a big hug,” but Bradshaw clung to his cold pie stance like it was a fourth-quarter comeback. As the laughter filled the studio, it was clear: food debates are as heated as any football rivalry. Speaking of football, though, when is Terry Bradshaw retiring? 

Terry Bradshaw: Tackling retirement rumors with a smile and Southern charm

The former Steelers champ’s tackling retirement talks with a grin and a good ol’ dose of Southern charm! Even today, Bradshaw’s making waves on FOX NFL Sunday, where he serves up his signature blend of football analysis and lighthearted banter since 1994—yep, been three decades now!

In a lively chat on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the four-time Super Bowl champ quipped about his gig, asserting, “So much fun! I’m one of those lucky folks who can’t wait to get to work.” Despite some fans questioning his on-air antics, Bradshaw remains unfazed. He calls his coworkers “brothers” and describes their time together as a “hoot.” 

So, while whispers of retirement swirl, Terry Bradshaw’s here to stay—bringing the same passion for football and fun that’s defined his legendary career.
