A 27 year old designer label wearing multi millionaire hipster model is perfect for the role of a nerdy, antisocial mamma's boy? okay then lol.. not sure how you figure that one, with a white wig and beard he'd look more appropriate for Old Joe than Ogie

Honestly joe is such a good person. KZbin these days is so filled with drama but he just minds his own business and accomplishes things many could never dream of and that is why he is such a good role model. I wish there were more people in this world like him because he is just a pure, honest person and deserves every single thing that comes his way.

Joe, you happy little prankster, this time no fooling! When you were doing Strictly someone wrote in to KZbin that you should be heading for the West End. Being the troll that I am I replied that Joe is talented, but no, not that much. Hmm. Well, son, I'm allowed to be wrong once in a while, ain't I? (Digression: when you made your announcement video in front of your wardrobe, all your tiny tee shirts hanging in a row, I thought, "Mine will be the smallest one, you'll be sure to know.")

As someone who has spent a LOT of money on theatre training and can only wish for this kind of opportunity, I would like to wish you luck. I know you're getting very mixed responses from this announcement, but it seems to me like you do genuinely have the talent and this isn't just another "we've cast someone famous to bring in audiences", I mean, Waitress doesn't need a celebrity name for that anyway. So, break a leg Joe, this is going to be the experience of a lifetime.

[@JoHarris68]

Unfortunately it does, went last week and it was more than half empty. It's only a 1500 seater and probably 500 seats sold.

[@hannab129]

@@JoHarris68 when I was there in early June (west end) it seemed to nearly have been sold out. Though I'm not sure. I know it has had a hard time getting enough people... I think it's a very good show though! I just think it's a little... Too much celebrity casting 😬 I honestly don't care if there is a celebrity on the stage, or a musical theatre actor/actress... But I'd rather have a trained musical theatre actor/actress than a mediocre, untrained 'celebrity' (not saying they are/were all bad. I just think some people are just not suited for the role... And especially then, it just seems to be casted because they are famous...)

[@El1989_]

It is really struggling unfortunately, which is really quite sad!

[@solentsquared6719]

If having someone famous doing the show is just to bring in audiences, so be it. It supports shows to have more people paying to see them so the shows can go on longer.

[@goodjobeli]

West End seems a lot more packed than Broadway right now, probably because its newer but they did start the run off with a stunt cast (Kat Mcphee as Jenna). But the broadway run is really failing rn (thats why its closing on Jan 5th...) so maybe they don't want that with the West End version idk.

[@LottieBruce99]

Joe, please film as much as you can behind the scenes. I love to see what goes on behind the scenes in musicals, especially from the casts point of view and I find there aren’t many theatre performers who are in larger productions who do film back stage and in rehearsals and show rituals and cool little stuff like quick changes etc The main one I can think of is Carrie Hope Fletcher (who’s videos I love, surprise surprise) Also you will be able to look back on the experience and everything you do film in years to come (and be able to show your kids & grandkids for yourself etc)

Katie Ford the point is he got this opportunity because he’s a name. People with musical theatre degrees and experience don’t even get seen for an audition. When they do there’s countless callbacks. Joe did one audition & OP claims if wasn’t ‘handed to him’ & others claiming that he went through the same audition process as anyone else. It’s laughable. Yes he had to audition but he got this opportunity because of who he is, which he admits himself yet the scores of naive fans seem unable to grasp 🙄

People need to stop focusing on the idea that Joe and others like him only get these roles because they are famous. Sure, their pull in media is something that is definitely considered and it also means that they would get contacted, but they still audition. They audition, and they work extremely hard. And anyone who knows Joe's channel and content knows that he rarely ever half asses anything, I mean just look at him doing Strictly Ballroom, he put his all into that experience. You know that he would have worked so hard on that audition, and he is really bursting with talent that could be tapped into via the West End. So good on you Joe, you're turning all of your hard work that you put into your channel on KZbin into really incredible opportunities to excel and stretch yourself beyond where you were before, which is what everyone should strive to do. Congratulations on the role, you're going to do so incredibly well, and this means that we now have 3 KZbin and social media stars/influencers on the same show in two different continents who all got there through their talent.

[@hannab129]

To be honest though... Most of the 'celebrities' DON'T have to audition to be in a show. E. G. Katherine McPhee. She said it herself, that she was asked to do it. I mean, she was amazing! I saw her in the show, and I loved her take on it. But I do understand the criticism... That said, I thought Joe was pretty good in his audition! He really looked, acted and sounded the part! :) excited to see him, especially with Laura together.

auntygeek my comment had nothing to do with being rich white or male . Unless rich means having contacts in the industry already. Coleen ballinger ( woman) and Todrick hall ( black ) are doing the same exact thing for the same exact reason which does not apply to normal people. The creative industry is beast of its own it is not a normal career , it's a field that is saturated , where you are supposed to be available for auditions at any moment whilst having a side job , where you working hard does not mean you are going to get the gig because you being hired as more to do with the casting director's already shaped idea of what they want which no one can predict nor can prepare for . Where your own personality makes a difference. His advantage , as well as Coleen' and todrick's ,is being a sure source of income in a business . Where you bring in money everything else can be accommodated , but normal people need to understand that if you do not have that fame you have a whole different situation and a much slimmer chance at it.

Aww I love how ernest and grateful you are. That's exactly why you actually DO deserve it! Good luck. Xx

Literally didn’t expect this vlog Awh but SO HAPPY 😫💗

[@lucyisabelturner]

Yoooo you actually push your own boundaries and I respect that so much. A lot of people and KZbinrs get comfortable in their success but you really don’t leave a stone unturned. So proud 🙌🏼

I've seen Waitress 5 times and I can honestly say that I think you are going to be a fantastic Ogie! I'm so excited, especially after seeing your audition clips, to see you take on the role. Try not to worry about those who say you don't deserve to be there, you'll prove them all wrong. I say all of this as a Waitress fan, not a Joe Sugg fan, I genuinely think you will be amazing. Welcome to the diner! 💗🥧

[@robynsibbald6619]

Abbie Carleton is Ogie a main role?

[@goodjobeli]

@@robynsibbald6619 Ogie is a supporting role, he's not as on stage as Jenna (the main character) or even as his love interest Dawn but he is a notable character.

[@damianriverol3009]

I think you'll be incredible, just those bits from the audition were great

[@kkrispy2009P]

well done joe while Dianne Claire Buswell is doing strictly your off to the west end in waitress the musical well done again and just after your bday chapter 15

[@GabriellaFitzGerald]

Can’t stop watching the audition clips - you’re going to be a fantastic Ogie! (I might even brave the ticket prices to see it again! 😅)

[@stalbirdjessiah6457]

Congrats Joe you worked hard and you've earned your success. I feel like a proud Father who has watched you grow from a boy to a man. PS I'm a 70 year old fan, I watched you for the past 7 years.

[@alexw3557]

My friend asked me to come see this a month or two ago and we never got round to it but will 100% be booking tickets for it now!! So proud of u and can't wait to see it!

[@naomimunoz1099]

I’m so incredibly happy and proud of you Joe!! I’ve been watching you since you hit 100,000 subs which has been ages and seeing you fulfilling your dreams and exploring new things in your career is amazing! Love you so much ❤️

[@maevet1554]

Congrats Joe! Waitress is one of my fave shows, that I've seen multiple times and I may have to sneak in another cheeky visit soon! Love what I've seen so far, I think you will make a great Ogie! You work so hard, and you deserve every opportunity that comes your way! So proud of you, good luck! 🎉❤️❤️❤️

[@aimee3432]

Congratulations Joe I’m sure you will make the best Ogie ❤️

[@caitlinairey1923]

I’ve got to say, I had my doubts when I first heard about it, but you looked really good in the audition clips, just as good as jack mcbrayer who I saw as ogie in April

[@ramboracoon]

I'M SO PROUD OF YOU AHHH !!! I've been watching you on KZbin since you were thatching roofs, and look how you've grown 😭😭 I'm almost graduated now too, life is strange but I love being here to watch all its progressions ❤️

[@helenamblx]

Don’t usually watch all the vlogs anymore, but to see you getting all these amazing opportunities is great. Started watching you in 2014 and you’ve come so far. Keep it up 😊

[@ambergoodship-cox150]

ayy love the vlogs still Joe. Congrats on everything

[@fletcher7580]

I was beyond happy when I found out you were joining the cast of Waitress in the West end! Genuinely so so pleased for you, you'll smash it!! Welcome to the Musical Theatre family 🖤🎭🎉😝

[@darcymorrison9841]

I've been watching you since you uploaded your first ever video cause I came over from Zoe's channel! I honestly believe that this last year of doing strictly and meeting Dianne came at the perfect time in your life. I feel like a proud parent watching your videos lately! Wish I lived in the UK so I could come to see both the Joe and Dianne show and Waitress! Maybe the Joe and Dianne show should come to Australia next!

[@OLDS98]

That was fun watching you audition Joe. You really have transition in your career and taking on these challenges and moving on to bigger things. I think it is great. I have been watch your channel for a long time. Ride the wave. You went from your job and what things have led to for you. I think the reaction of your family and Dianne was quite good! Joe.. this is your season. Make the most of it!

[@Beeba10]

Dude, that's so cool, congrats! On a side note - your mum really reminded me of Zoe during that phone call, just the way she said "Really?" and "oh my god". Can hear who Zo takes after lol

[@mariapolley6147]

Well done! Waitress is my fave musical and I can’t wait to come and watch you in September!!

[@brodie.mx1112]

Congrats! Can I just say that KZbinrs are either bleaching their hair, adopting cats or joining the Waitress cast recently 😂😂

[@beautysnoop]

Honestly so proud! Your talent is REAL and authentic and that shows.... what an amazing opportunity! Guess I need to book a flight all the way from Utah USA to come see you!!

[@sugaswagz]

i am so damn proud of you joe!!! i'm so sad that i'm broke that i cannot go over and see you perform but i will be indefinitely cheering for you; you sounded amazing when you sang, awesome acting job and i see strictly is paying off for you. you deserve this joe, all of us (the fans), are proud of you for giving it a good old go and being confident

[@lauramartin1795]

ok I've been watching your videos literally for ever, id say around 6 years? I love musicals just as much as well, and was planning to see waitress for my birthday, and the fact that my two favourite things are coming together is so exciting! congrats Joe, I am so proud and I cannot wait to see you in it!
