Joel McHale is congratulating Jared Fogle on 10 years of keeping off 245 pounds and joining him in a live casting call at Hollywood & Highland for amateurs interested in earning red-carpet privileges and a role in a new SUBWAY® commercial. Fogle became famous as a college student who created his own weight loss program that involved eating SUBWAY® sandwiches every day for a year and walking. Ten years later he has kept the weight off and he’s leaving his “fat pants” behind – officially retiring them at the end of this year. He’s on a nationwide tour to raise awareness and funds for the Jared Foundation, an organization he founded to help fight childhood obesity. The Foundation is awarding grants to schools for fitness and nutrition programs this year. Fans may arrive starting at 10:00 a.m. (PST) to audition on June 16. Ten randomly selected participants will do on-stage performances. One grand prize winner will lock in an appearance in an upcoming SUBWAY® commercial along with a ticket to the premiere of Warner Bros. Pictures’ Get Smart movie in Los Angeles that same night. The first 1,000 people will receive a Jared 10th Anniversary T-shirt and backpack.
