        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>He&#8217;s still rolling in dough.</p><p>Disgraced Papa John&#8217;s founder John Schnatter is serving up <strong>yet another</strong> slice of controversy with a bizarre series of TikTok videos that flaunt his massive collection of bling.</p><p>The pizza baron was <strong>infamously ousted</strong> from his own company in 2018 for dropping a racial slur during a video conference and has been involved in <strong>several notable scandals</strong> since.</p><p>But it appears the pie pariah is still riding high. Schnatter, who is <strong>reportedly worth</strong> a cool $1 billion, <strong>is seen in one TikTok clip</strong> swaggering up to his personal helicopter in slo-mo while the Notorious B.I.G&#8217;s &#8220;Big Poppa&#8221; blares in the background. The braggadocious clip, entitled &#8220;do you know I have my own helicopter,&#8221; has racked up almost 600,000 views since it was uploaded April 28.</p><p>If that wasn&#8217;t ostentatious enough, Papa John also posted footage of his gargantuan garage full of vintage cars to his 100,000 followers.</p><p><strong>In the most cringe-worthy clip</strong> with 1.3 million views, Papa John gives an &#8220;MTV Cribs&#8221;-esque tour of his sprawling, moat-encircled mansion in Kentucky, dubbed &#8220;The Papa Castle.&#8221; The $11 million property is the most expensive in Louisville, <strong>according to People</strong>.</p><p>&#8220;Welcome to my crib,&#8221; announces Schnatter, before flinging open his double doors to unveil a colossal wooden clock modeled after eagles mating in mid-air. “Eagles go up several thousand feet and mate all the way down,&#8221; the pizza czar explains. &#8220;Right before they hit, they separate so they don’t get hurt or killed. Perfect timing.”</p><p>The clip ends on a cliffhanger with Schnatter pretending like he&#8217;s going to show off the library. He then cheekily bails out and says, “Stay tuned, you gotta keep following. Maybe next time.”</p><p>Needless to say, Schnatter&#8217;s property porn didn&#8217;t go over well with many TikTokkers.</p><p>&#8220;Money doesn&#8217;t buy taste,&#8221; said one critic of the gaudy clips.</p><p>&#8220;Where&#8217;s Shaq,&#8221; wondered another in reference to the former <strong>NBA star joining Papa John&#8217;s company board last year</strong>.</p><p>Another found this wealth worship particularly tone-deaf in light of <strong>the coronavirus</strong> pandemic: &#8220;People of the world trying to survive and this man is showing off.&#8221;</p><p>This isn&#8217;t the first time Schnatter has sparked controversy as of late. This past November, the stuffed crust kingpin claimed that he <strong>had eaten 40 pizzas in 30 days</strong>, a statement he <strong>later walked back</strong>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
