Casting Calls - The Biggest Loser

Audtions begin June 27 for the ninth season of The Biggest Loser. Casting teams will be visiting Chicago, Detroit, San Jose, Tampa, Atlanta, Mobile, New York City, San Antonio, Dallas, Kansas City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Oklahoma City, Des Moines, and Los Angeles. Season 9 premieres in early 2010 (Season 8 begins this September.)

Casting producers are looking for outgoing and charismatic family teams of two, especially those who have the personality, desire and competitive edge to vie for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lose weight, change their lives forever and compete for a grand prize of $250,000. Individuals who don't have a partner can audition on their own. Candidates must be at least 18 years of age and legal residents of the United States.

Casting teams will try to see everyone, especially the first 500 people in line. Lines will not be allowed to start until three hours before the open calls begin. Each candidate should bring a photograph of them and their partner. Photos are not returnable.
