Talking directly to the camera, the star said: "If you're having a day where you're trying not to eat the bread, I'm sure people are going to be like 'how dare you do this to a pizza - I get it, I feel really guilty about doing it myself but I just take the top of the pizza and a little salad which has basically all the same toppings as the pizza and then I make a pizza salad…it's actually really crunchy and delicious. And then you get the satisfaction of eating a pizza… it might be if you're gluten intolerant...pizza salad!"

Friends and fans flocked to comment on the video - and they were divided. Paris Hilton was certainly a fan and replied with a heart-eyes emoji and a pizza emoji.

Selma Blair wrote: "I want in." A follower penned: "They actually have this at a local pizza place!!! They call it a pizza bowl! It’s all the toppings and no crust so all that needs to be added is the salad."

Others weren't as crazy about the idea with one fan writing: "I love bread too much, I don’t think I could do it." A second wrote: "I don’t even like pizza and I’m offended by this."

Olive turned 10!

Earlier this week, the doting mother of one's daughter, Olive Barrymore Kopelman, celebrated her tenth birthday.

Though the star opts to rarely share her daughters on social media, she posted an adorable photo of the growing tween in honor of her big day.

Captioning the sweet snap, she wrote: "Happy 10th birthday Olive … my how you have grown. Today you are double digits," she said, and announced yet another milestone she is about to go through. She wrote: "Today we get your ears pierced. Today is the start of many things."
