John Oliver wanted to see Mr. P's full body, so he offered to donate to a charity if Pringles would accept the challenge, and the chips brand did.

On Tuesday, Pringles released a short video to show the world what Mr. P really looked like. Pringles' containers include a head of a male figure known as "Julius Pringles" or "Mr. P" but many, including Oliver, were wondering about his full appearance.

"The moment @IamJohnOliver and @LastWeekTonight have been waiting for. In honor of every second John has thought of Mr. P's body, we are donating $1 to @feedingamerica, which happens to be $10K," Pringles wrote on Twitter.

The 14-second video featured Mr. P opening the door and waving his hand as he welcomed the camera insider his home. He is seen wearing a white shirt printed with "Pringles" and a red blazer and pants. He also matched his outfit with a pair of red shoes.

The HBO host was fixated on the male figure on the Pringles containers during one episode of "Last Week Tonight." He even asked his fans to share their ideas of Mr. P's appearance.

"Is he tall or short? Does he have a lot of body hair or is he completely smooth? When will he be able to tell me what his nipples look like? Are you talking hours or are you talking days?" Oliver asked.

To receive an answer to his question, Oliver challenged Pringles and offered to donate $10,000 to Feeding America for the official new image of Mr. P that Pringles gladly accepted.

Meanwhile, Twitter users immediately reacted to Mr. P's appearance. Many found the video funny, but some were disappointed.

"Unacceptable. That is just someone wearing mr Pringle’s head," one commented.

"I could have sworn they wore a 3 piece suit. I don't know where my memory of this is but I remember seeing that being a thing," another added.

"Really disappointed he wasn't in a tube top," a different user wrote.

Some were also delighted that they finally had the answer to the burning question about Mr. P and they were thankful for Pringles' response.

"I didn’t realize this was a burning question but then realized I was desperate to know this answer. Now I can get on with my life thank you @Pringles," one commented.

"I know this is part of a marketing campaign and all, but I'm a big LWT fan and I'm here for this, this is awesome," a second user added.
